Kawasaki has announced the 2027 model year for its 250cc inline-4 supersport, the Ninja ZX-25R series. The lineup consists of two models, the Ninja ZX-25R SE and Ninja ZX-25RR, both launching on August 1, 2026, featuring new graphics.
This news is irresistible to me. The 2027 model of the Ninja ZX-25R series, packing an inline-four in 250cc. A four-cylinder that revs cleanly all the way up high is a rare thing these days. This time there are two models, SE and RR, launching August 1st, wearing new graphics too. Just looking at the spec sheet brings that crisp exhaust note back to mind and gets my pulse up.

What's the difference between the ZX-25R SE and the ZX-25RR?
The RR gets the quickshifter and higher-spec suspension, the SE is the grade below it.
Reminds me of the Balius. Impressive they keep making 250 inline-fours in the Reiwa era.
There's an SE and RR, but this price range for a 250 is firmly hobbyist territory now.
Just the fact a 250 inline-4 still exists is amazing. Gonna aim for that ZX-25RR.
I'll give them credit for the inline-four, but calling it new every year just for a color change is a bit much.
Looks like the engine's carried over. Still, just keeping a 250 inline-4 alive these days is impressive on its own.
Calling it a 2027 model with just new graphics - the guts are surely the same.
