Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX 2023

A sports tourer of the old school. The Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX fulfils all the points you would expect from this bike category. Added to this is a comprehensive electronics package that offers everything you could wish for when travelling - and at no extra charge! The fact that the operation is perhaps not quite as intuitive as the competition already manages, is forgiven at the latest when you take a look at the price tag.

comfortable yet sporty ergonomics

wind protection

standard electronics package

very accessible.

Engine needs revs
