Kawasaki India has hiked the prices of select models in the country. The price hike is effective immediately and Kawasaki is citing rising raw material costs and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates as the main reasons. Kawasaki’s popular sub-litre class naked, the Z900 is now only Rs 1,900 dearer, at Rs 7.69 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). Even the Japanese brand’s only cruiser, the Vulcan is just Rs 1,500 more expensive. However, for other models like the Ninja 400, and the Ninja 650, the prices have gone up by Rs 30,000 and Rs 40,000 respectively. Here’s the full list of old and new prices:

All prices are ex-showroom Delhi.
At Rs 4.99 lakh, the Ninja 400 is the most expensive bike in its class, making it only Rs 70,000 dearer than the Z650’s revised pricing of Rs 5.69 lakh. On the other hand, the Versys 1000, which was recently launched at Rs 10.69 lakh now costs Rs 10.89 lakh (all prices ex-showroom Delhi), Rs 20,000 more than before.
But if you’re planning to buy the Kawasaki Ninja 300, there’s good news. The brand hasn’t hiked its price and it still costs Rs 2.98 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi), making it the most affordable motorcycle from the Japanese brand. Kawasaki dealers are known to offer good deals on their bikes. And we hope they roll out some offers soon in a bid to offset the increase in prices, at least to a certain extent.
