Ten new Ninja colourways for 2025

With only two current colour schemes carried into 2025, there are a host of new colour options in the Ninja range within Europe for the coming season.

Retained is the Metallic Graphite Gray/Metallic Diablo Black Ninja ZX-10R option alongside a lime Green/Ebony/Pearl Blizzard White while the formerly Lime Green Ninja ZX-10RR will soon be offered in a Metallic Matte Graphenesteel Gray colourway. Both colour options for the Ninja ZX-6R in 2025 are new with customers able to specify either Lime Green/Ebony/Pearl Blizzard White or Ebony/Metallic Flat Spark Black. The Ninja ZX-4RR is also available in Lime Green/Ebony/Pearl Blizzard White.

The final three new Ninja colours for 2025 adorn the Ninja 650 twin with black, green and gray represented. Metallic Spark Black/Metallic Flat Spark Black will be the darkest option sitting alongside Lime Green/Pearl Blizzard White and, finally, Metallic Matte Carbon Gray/Flat Ebony.

With the majority of machines appearing with new colour options alongside the traditional appeal of the Ninja family, 2025 looks set to be yet another standout season of choice for Kawasaki sport bike enthusiasts.

The bikes will be available in dealers from the below dates, with prices TBC nearer the time.

Ninja ZX-10R – December 2024
Ninja ZX-10RR – December 2024
Ninja ZX-6R – September 2024
Ninja ZX-4RR – September 2024
Ninja 650 – January 2025

All change for many 2025 Z series colourways

Bikes from Kawasaki's perennially popular Z series will be represented in 2025 with just a select few colours carried forward from 2024 and the majority of others being brand new.

Remaining in this year's hue, the powerful, supercharged Hypernaked Z H2 SE continues to be available in Metallic Matte Graphenesteel Gray/Mirror Coated Black while the standard model will arrive as an Emerald Blazed Green/Metallic Matte Graphenesteel Gray/Metallic Diablo Black machine.

In terms of the Z650, two new colour options are being released in the guise of Metallic Spark Black/Red and Metallic Spark Black/Green.

The globally successful RS range flexes its muscles once more in 2025 with three new options for the Z650RS and the same number of possibilities within the Z900RS offering.

Making a bold statement on city streets next year, the Z650RS is being offered as either Ebony, Ebony/Green or Ebony/Yellow for 2025; but that hardly tells the full story with the Ebony/Green version evoking memories of the famous Z1 graphic scheme and the Ebony/Yellow iteration conjuring up images of the later, legendary Z1B.

Looking longingly at the past - while being firmly of its time - the Z900RS will appear in Metallic Diablo Black plus an Ino Red offering - again conjuring up fond memories of past famous Z models - while the ever popular SE model will appear in a Metallic Flat Spark Black/Metallic Matte Carbon Gray livery.

For 2025, colours change and evolve while the core spirit of Z continues to delight and inspire and will be available in dealers from the below dates, with prices TBC nearer the time.

Z H2 SE – April 2025
Z650 – October 2024
Z650RS – January 2025
Z900RS – November 2024
Z900RS SE – February 2025

New 2025 colours for Versys and Vulcan twins

The popular Versys 650 adventure tourer and much-loved Vulcan S are both set for a colour refresh for the 2025 sales season.

Known since its debut as an adaptable “any-roads” machine, the agile Versys 650 will again be offered by Kawasaki dealers for the coming season in a number of options from Standard all the way to Grand Tourer complete with a suite of luggage making this a bike of choice in the mid-weight adventure touring segment. Continuing to be offered in black, the two new 2025 colours will be Pearl Robotic White/Metallic Spark Black and Metallic Graphenesteel Gray/Metallic Spark Black.

Sharing the same highly praised 649cm3 water-cooled, parallel-twin powerplant as its touring sibling – yet retuned and refocused for the needs of a cruiser rider – the Vulcan S has single-mindedly carved itself a niche in the mid-weight custom class with its blend of sinuous styling and clever, practical features. Adjustable footpegs and Kawasaki's Ergo-Fit seating and control options allow riders to fine tune the Vulcan S according to their height and preference, while the tubular style chassis features a laydown single-shock rear suspension equipped with a linkage to enable a longer stroke for increased ride comfort.

Carrying the current highly demanded Metallic Flat Spark Black colourway into 2025, the new colour option for Vulcan S will be a subtle take on the same theme encompassing Metallic Flat Spark Black/Metallic Flat Raw Graystone.

Adventure tour or custom cruising, both the Versys 650 and Vulcan S will be ready to meet the needs of enthusiasts once more in 2025… and ready to fuel their riding passion.

The Versys 650 will be available in dealers from January 2025 and the Vulcan S from October 2024, with prices TBC nearer the time.

Two models and three colour options for 2025 Eliminator

A relatively recent and welcome addition to the Kawasaki range, the Eliminator 500 will continue to be available in two model specifications in 2025 with potential owners being able to select from three new colour ways.

Based around the concept of “Just Ride”, and equipped with Kawasaki's new parallel-twin, four-stroke mid-capacity engine (that has also been tuned for its role in the new Z and Ninja 500 models), the Eliminator 500 displays long, low drag strip and urban street styling within an easy to ride A2 licence friendly package.

With huge interest in the mid-capacity or so-called “entry level” segment, competition is fierce, so Kawasaki is offering three all new colours for 2025 to underpin the impact and appeal of the Eliminator.

For the standard model two colourways will be on offer for the coming season, Metallic Flat Spark Black or Pearl Robotic White, while the range-leading SE model will be offered in Metallic Carbon Gray/Flat Ebony.

For 2025 Eliminator 500 owners the narrative is simple, just pick a colour and then “Just Ride”.

The bike will arrive in dealers in October 2024, with prices TBC.
