Returning 2018 Kawasaki Models and Colors




The big news from Kawasaki last week was the return of the KLX250 dual sport, now available with fuel injection. Along with the KLX250, Kawasaki announced several returning 2018 models with new colors.

These returning models join Kawasaki’s previously-announced off-road range and supercharged Ninja H2 and H2R, and the new Z900RS which will debut at the Tokyo Motor Show Oct. 25.

What’s interesting are two models that were not mentioned, the high-performance Ninja ZX-10RR and the Ninja 300. The ZX-10RR is based off of Kawasaki’s World Superbike racing program, so it’s possible it may receive some updates for 2018 that will be announced later, likely at EICMA in November. As for the Ninja 300, well, let’s just say there’s a good reason Kawasaki didn’t announce a 2018 model.
