Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R 636 2013

The Kawa convinces with its good handling and uncompromising reliability. A strong motorbike, but definitely not a bargain.

Sharpened geometry

seating position okay

good handling

uncompromising reliability.

High purchase price.

Kawasaki Ninja 650 2019

The Ninja 650 firmly stamps its predecessor (Er-6f). The engine has mastered the Euro 4 hurdle well and serves up a very usable 68 hp, the chassis is simply great for this class, and the weight reduction of 18(!) kilos compared to the ER-6f justifies reverent nods.

Transparent chassis for sport

playful and good-natured handling, excellent brakes, sharp looks a la ZX-10R

resilient engine.

Little sound from the series pot

engine shows slight vibrations
