The all-new Kawasaki Ninja and Z500 models are LAMS approved and set to arrive Down Under next month. The 451cc parallel twin-cylinder models make 33.4kW@9000rpm and 42.6Nm@6000rpm. With the Ninja priced at $7544 + ORC, we expect the Z500 to come in somewhere just above $7k + ORC. The new models are welcome additions to the ever expanding Kawasaki road range, where you can just about find any motorcycle to suit your needs, particularly in the LAS category.

Both bikes feature revised styling, LED headlight and taillight, a newly designed LCD dash and smartphone connectivity. You can read the full details on the Ninja 500 here, and the Z500 here.
