The fact that the new Ninja 500 is only a few hundred dollars higher than the old 2006 Ninja 500's MSRP is an accomplishment in itself.

451cc sooo, NOT a 500? Hate how manufacturers are doing this now, just call it what it is, a 450

I love the late 80s and early 90s color schemes.

I absolutely love the retro 40 year colour scheme. So many modern Kawasakis look awesome in the old retro colours and not the new KRT colours.

The SE upgrades are nice. Should be standard on bikes now a days. That 40th anniversary would be my choice if I was in the market though. Great color scheme

I have so much fun on track with my current Ninja 400 (heavily modified). I would definitely consider replacing it with the 500 if I happen to bin the thing in a corner. I've tracked a few larger displacement bikes over the years, but the 400 is so light in the corners, larger motors are only beneficial on the straights. If the 500 has the same handling characteristics, its a winner. Aftermarket suspension only improves an already capable platform. I wonder if all my race bits from my 400 would fit on the 500?

My first race bike was an EX500 / Ninja 500. Funny how things are going from the 250 to 300 to 400 and now back to 500! There was nothing too powerful about my EX500 and made it a great first track bike. It's all about the corner speed.

My crystal ball says this and the Eliminator are testing grounds for the engine to make a future KLR450 to compete with the new Himalayan and CFMOTO 450 ADV bikes (or at least one can hope).

So what is a small displacement motor cycle again?

I had a 1985 Kawasaki ZL900 eliminator. It was a great bike and looked like a muscle cruiser. Nothing like what Kawasaki is calling the eliminator

the 40th anniversary livery across the whole lineup looks so much better than the regular christmas color kawasaki racing graphics. they should just make those the standard IMO

US bikes are rated 51hp, and likely will see bigger gains when modded than previous 'baby Ninjas'. This engine has been sandbagged more than other generations to comply with emissions and European LAMS (or whatchyamacallit) 'beginner' HP regs. Most new bikes have terribly restrictive exhausts and factory computer tunes that open the throttle a fraction of your actual throttle input. 100% throttle opening is often as low as 60%, so a substantial power increase is already built into the engine, even BEFORE tuning the poor air/fuel ratio, timing, etc! Interestingly, this bigger engine also gets better fuel mileage than the 400, which is often the case with torquier engines and slightly more relaxed gearing. I know MPG doesn't excite anyone but me, but that's a strong point of this class of bike, and I'm engineer-minded. The p3ck3r-measure "500" isn't the most exciting upgrade to Baby Ninja (I LIKE small sportbikes), but I think it represents a better value if you don't get stupid with options. 😉

I have a 2019 N400 that I use for solo touring. Not enough changes here to compel an upgrade. But Kawi is definitely keeping the N500 competitive, especially the SE. I agree with the folks saying that it should be called a 450 instead of a 500.

I'm gonna end up getting the SE non KRT, I think it looks so nice in the Red, it comes with ABS which I think is huge as a new rider. And the SE is only about $500 more than the non SE so why not

Does the 40th anniversary edition come with all the SE upgrades? Or is that just a color scheme change?
