Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Ninja 650 2018

Kawasaki Ninja 650 2018

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

Kawasaki Z 400 2019

Kawasaki Z 400 2019

The Kawasaki Z400 is definitely a great evolution of its predecessor, the Z300. More power, less weight - all around, simply an even better bike. Above all, the linear power delivery and excellent handling make the Z400 an ideal entry-level bike. The ease of clutch operation and good chassis set-up are also in this vein, which is why the Z400 can be recommended to novice riders without hesitation.

Great, very controllable power delivery

Low weight

Good seating position

Great sound

Very suitable for novice riders.

Non-adjustable clutch and brake levers

Limited adjustable chassis
