The seller has asked that we include the below running video following the bike’s most recent service in February.
The Kawasaki Ninja 250 has launched the careers of countless motorcyclists and has earned its place in hearts of riders worldwide. It started in 1983 as the belt driven EX250-C, or GPZ 250, before being rebranded as the Ninja, and while it has changed over the years it has maintained a balance between sport and standard that has made it attractive to so many different types of riders.
Come 1986 Kawasaki decided to update the little bike, now the EX250-E, with a chain drive and branded it the Ninja 250R in the USA and Canada and the GPZ 250R throughout the rest of the world. It came outfitted with a 248cc parallel twin powermill which produced 37hp, redlined at 14,000RPM and topped out at 94mph.
