The standard version of the Ninja 1100SX also benefits from the most important upgrades for 2025: the more practical engine, the revised traction control and the changed gear ratio make the Ninja fit for the future. Minor weaknesses such as the high fuel consumption and low payload diminish the overall impression somewhat. Yet the Ninja 1100SX SE remains an excellent sporting motorcycle for riders looking for comfort and dynamics in equal measure.

Four-cylinder suitable for everyday use and yet fun to ride

high stability, solid workmanship

high touring capability

quickshifter and traction control operate at a high level

great reponsiveness even in Sport mode

Relatively high fuel consumption

fork with weaknesses in reponsiveness

low payload

operation not always intuitive
