All in all a really good bike for a brand new rider! Great price, and a great starter bike made by Kawasaki!

I’m waiting to go pick up my 500 se abs edition. I’m excited. It’s my first time riding a bike aside from street bikes and I cannot wait

It goes man. Nothing like a super sport of course. I use mines for deliveries, when commuting on highways I have no problem cruising at 90 and having passing power to 18 wheelers. I'm 5'9 155lbs and it sits comfy for me. Ill be making a 190 mile road trip soon.

Thanks for this! I'm a beginner and will be getting this bike next year, early spring. I was nervous with the 400 being discontinued, so it's good to know the 500 is beginner friendly. Ride safe!

i mean bro deadass rode the bike 10 feet and said "much better than the ninja 400 he rode 2 YEARS AGO". I understand that theyll release a bike thats kinda better in some ways, but shit if we being honest its obvious he was shilling to keep attending the kawasaki events. SO audience, please ride one for yourself to truly know, these ninja 500 reviews on yt rn are not up to par.

There isn't enough and none of them reviewing the bike say anything they don't like I've been riding for a long time and I'm a small cc guy these days I ride a ninja 400 and I'm currently in the process of trading for the 500 not because power or anything stupid I like the white color and the seat on the 500 is more comfortable other than that the power increase isn't gonna make crazy difference

@@tjmosher3857 I picked up the Ninja 500 (non-abs) on April 06. Never ridden the 400 but I had a buddy who rode one said it was good. I only went with the ninja 500 cause it’s newer of course and Kawasaki put some more pep into the torque output at lower rpms. Fastest I’ve done is 113mph. No more needed cause Im not a speed demon. lol. 3rd gear will take you up to 80mph if that gives you an idea of how fast it can get up too. As far as passing power, I have no problem overtaking cars in the city. It’s too easy. Highway riding it’s still comfy. I find myself cruising on highways at 85-90mph still got more than enough to pass 18wheelers. Don’t be afraid to make the bike sing. It loves it.

They are so good I bought 2 and also there isn’t upgrades yet but literally all the 400 parts fit them. So I’ve ordered all 400 parts and they fit well. I have the black one base model and the ABS in the glacier white which literally looks grey 😂😂😂….. they are fun to ride for sure.

I ride a MT-09, excelent bike, but sometimes I feel that "small" engines is easier to take risks, so I've been considering the Kawa 500. The only thing I don't like is that it has conventional front forks. Not sure if this bike is a canyon carver or not. The Duke 390 is a much better bike, but little pricey.

They only made the 500, which is really a 451 and not a true 500, to compete with the CFMOTO 450SS, but the CFMOTO is still much better. Ninja 400 needed an update, so I guess this is the best Kawi could do on a budget. LOL CFMOTO has better tech and a better warranty.
