2027 Kawasaki Ninja 500 SE Launched In Two Colours

• Launched in Europe
• Remains mechanically unchanged

Kawasaki has launched the Ninja 500 SE abroad, in two new shades. The SE, or special edition, is the premium variant of the Ninja 500. It features several changes over the standard model, like a TFT console and keyless ignition.

The bike is available in two shades: Lime Green and Metallic Matte Graphenesteel Gray / Metallic Spark Black.

The Lime Green features the familiar Kawasaki green finish with the white and blue graphics on the fairing. However, there are some differences on the Ninja 500 SE compared to the Lime Green shade on other models. Notably, the black finish on the front half of the fairing where the turn indicators are housed.

The Metallic Matte Graphenesteel Gray / Metallic Spark Black is the understated shade between the two. There’s a full black finish on the fairing, with grey and red graphics. This shade is a lot more subtle than the Lime Green, but the addition of the red accents ensures that it isn’t too subtle, like the black shades offered on other Ninja models.

Apart from the new shades, the bike remains mechanically unchanged. It continues to be powered by the same 451cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin motor that produces 44.77bhp and 42.6Nm.
