Built around Kawasaki's sport motorcycle platform, the 2015 Kawasaki Ninja 650 ABS relies on a 649 cc (39.6 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 83.0 x 60.0 mm (3.3 x 2.4 inches) with a 10.8:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Ninja 650 ABS measures 211.1 kg (465 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 805 mm (31.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,410 mm (55.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 15.9-liter (4.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
