2015 Kawasaki Ninja 250SL WSBK Special Edition livery in Lime Green

Kawasaki Heavy Industries has prepared a special edition Ninja 250SL wrapped in World Superbike Championship to welcome the 2015 season of the series. The livery is based on the iconic colour of Kawasaki that is Lime Green matched with sponsor logo and decals. The engine and chassis are still the same from the usual Ninja 250SL.  

This bike has been popular since it is one of the cheaper 250cc bike. Priced in Malaysia at RM17,689 (basic), it sure can entice most the moped riders who are upgrading to bigger capacity engine.

We don’t know whether this livery will come to Malaysia or not, but there is hope. There is hope since Malaysia is also one of the circuit which is going to hold the WSBK race series on 2nd Aug 2015. Maybe, the Ninja 250SL WSBK Special Edition will launched there?
