The 2025 Ninja 500 SE ABS perfectly balances beginner-friendly accessibility with aggressive, supersport-inspired style, wearing a striking Passion Red / Metallic Flat Spark Black / Metallic Matte Dark Gray triple-tone paint scheme. This special edition package adds sharp, premium graphics over the matte dark gray bodywork, contrasting boldly against pop-art hits of Passion Red. Stepping up to the SE trim upgrades the cockpit with a brilliant, full-color TFT display featuring Rideology smartphone connectivity, and outfits the bike with high-value factory accessories like frame sliders, a taller clear windshield, LED turn signals, a tank pad, and a color-matched pillion seat cowl.
Built around a lightweight, high-tensile steel trellis frame, the Ninja 500 is powered by a highly punchy 451cc parallel-twin engine that unleashes 51 horsepower and 31.7 lb-ft of low-to-mid range torque. Power flows seamlessly through a 6-speed gearbox equipped with an Assist & Slipper clutch that prevents rear-wheel hop on aggressive downshifts while maintaining a feather-light feel at the handlebar lever. Handling is incredibly agile thanks to a compact 54.1-inch wheelbase and a low 30.9-inch seat height, while confident stopping power is handled by a massive 310mm semi-floating front disc brake paired with standard ABS for ultimate road reassurance.
