Description

This 2024 Kawasaki Ninja 500 is a low-mileage sportbike with only 1,016 miles. It is powered by Kawasaki’s 451cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and chain final drive. The engine provides a useful balance of accessible low-speed response and enough performance for highway and recreational riding.

The Ninja 500 combines full sportbike styling with relatively approachable ergonomics and a lightweight chassis. Its riding position is less aggressive than larger supersport motorcycles, making it practical for commuting and everyday use while still providing the handling and appearance expected from the Ninja lineup.

An assist and slipper clutch helps reduce clutch effort and improves control during downshifts. The chassis also features front and rear disc brakes, Uni-Trak rear suspension, lightweight wheels, digital instrumentation, and modern LED lighting.

This example is finished in Metallic Flat Spark Black and has covered just over 1,000 miles. The seller notes that the motorcycle was tipped over once while parked due to wind rather than being dropped during a riding accident. With its low mileage, 451cc parallel-twin engine, manageable chassis, and everyday-friendly ergonomics, this Ninja 500 is a strong option for newer riders or anyone looking for a lightweight modern sportbike.
