Many say that the Kawasaki Z250 is Kawasaki Ninja 250 FI, is that true? Lets look together.

When viewed in terms of machinery and technology, two bikes have the same engine and technology. In the specification, Kawasaki Z250 and Ninja 250 FI engine powered with 249cc DOHC parallel twin, carburetion system injection, 11,3:1 compression ratio, up to a six-speed transmission. Of course, the energy released would be the same, 32 PS at 11,000 rpm and 21 Nm torque at 10,000 rpm.

So what makes the Z250 and Ninja 250 FI different? I think obviously look different from the type, it is clear that the Kawasaki Z250 has style nakedbike, while ninja 250 FI is The Sportbike. Also we can see, Kawasaki Z250 not use fairing, and has a sort of Shroud engine cover, which looks like the "Z" letter.

So, the Kawasaki Z250 and Kawasaki Ninja 250 FI, only different aesthetically and in terms of models and functions only. In specification, both these motorcycles have the same engine.

Attendance All new Kawasaki Ninja 250 in my opinion obviously has to compete with Honda 250cc bike, the CBR 250R. Now the all-new Kawasaki Ninja 250 has particularly what is owned by Honda CBR 250R, such as the injection system on the engine and ABS braking system. Overall All new kawasaki ninja 250 has an aggressive design, this course can increase competition within the CBR 250R.

Also all-new Ninja 250 has a composition of 2-cylinder engine with 8-valve DOHC. In Indonesia, the machine with such a configuration, it is still perceived prestige than the 1-cylinder engine used in the CBR 250R. Surely the engine 2 - cylinder can result in higher speed performance than the single cylinder. It turns out that power is owned by the all-new Ninja 250 is greater than the CBR 250R, the all-new Ninja 250 to 32 hp at 11.000rpm, of 6.3 hp is larger than the CBR 250R. But the torque generated kawasaki all new ninja 250, is greater than the CBR 250R, which is only 21 Nm at 10.000rpm, or lower 1.9 Nm. And the weight of the bike was lighter CBR 250R, rather than all-new Ninja 250.

But the formula is not absolute. We also need to know the ratio of weight versus power and torque have both. However CBR 250R is lighter weight than all-new Ninja 250. In the all-new Ninja 250 has a weight of 174 kg, while the CBR 250R only with a weight of 165 kg, so the ratio of power versus weight of all new ninja 250, better than the CBR 250R. All-new Ninja 250 produces 0.18 hp / kg, while the CBR 250R only 0.15 hp / kg.

How where price competition from both the 250cc bike? It turns out that the posted price for the all-new Ninja 250 is RP.56,900.000 (ABS) and Rp.49,900.000 (non-ABS), so the price of all new Ninja 250 is more expensive than the CBR 250R, with a ratio of Rp.10.000.000. For me Rp.10.000.000 is no small amount.
