Kawasaki Motors Japan will launch the 2027 models of its 249cc inline-four supersports, the Ninja ZX-25R SE and Ninja ZX-25RR, on August 1, 2026. Prices remain unchanged, starting at 1,014,200 yen.
A 250 with an inline-four is, these days, an obsession that borders on madness. That sound and power delivery bursting out at high revs — you only understand it by riding it. Holding the price steady is a classy move too. The joy of thrashing a small-displacement bike around a circuit — I want to back this one.

An August 1st launch is right in the thick of summer, does delivery also land around then?
Announcing 2027 models simultaneously alongside the same-class ZX-4R really highlights how much Kawasaki's strengthening its lineup.
Announcing these 2 bikes at once suggests development resources were poured in heavily too.
The ZX-25 series feels fully established at this point, and holding the line on this price bracket must take real stubbornness from the manufacturer.
A 249cc inline-4 — just the sound alone would satisfy the desire to own one.
Holding the price at ¥1,014,200 — impressive that they've kept it steady given the current climate.
