Kawasaki announces Ninja 500, Z500 and Eliminator 500 prices

For 2024, these three models are set to shake up the hard-fought mid-capacity sector, giving riders a choice of cruiser, naked, and Sportbike styles. The aggressively styled Z500 is powered by a new twin-cylinder, water-cooled engine equipped with an Assist and Slipper clutch. The responsive power unit is housed in a lightweight trellis-type chassis delivering reassuring handling and easy reach to the ground for A2 licence holders.

Enjoying the same core trellis-type chassis and invigorating twin-cylinder, water-cooled engine as the Z, the Ninja 500 features the aggressive Ninja family look with angular upper cowl and a comprehensive performance styling package. It also meets European A2 licence regulations, widening its appeal across experienced riders with a desire for a narrow chassis and easy reach to the ground plus reassuring low speed manoeuvrability matched to genuine sporting performance.

Meanwhile, the new Eliminator has distinctive urban cruiser styling offering a comfortable and low seat plus a cruiser style 18” front and 16” rear wheel combination all relying on an all-new trellis type chassis with a 451cm3 Ninja based fuel-injected parallel twin engine at its core delivering strong low rev performance combined with lively upper rev range ability.

– Eliminator 500 – £5,999

– Eliminator 500 SE – £6,399

– Z500 – £5,699
