Bajaj in collaboration with Kawasaki launched its first superbike in the 250CC category last year called as Kawasaki Ninja 250R and with its looks and mind blowing specifications, he bike succeeded in turning a large number of heads. It was even speculated that the motorcycle because of its high pricing, will not be able to attract much sales.

To an extent even the above fact is true since a 250CC motorcycle priced at Rs. 3 Lakh is not considered as value for money. To everybody's surprise this product of Kawasaki has reached 1000 sales figures milestone since its launch last year.

At one of the occasion, Mr. Tanigawa, MD IKM, said "The launch of Kawasaki Ninja 250R has been a great success and the sales of the bike has exceeded our expectations. The product appeal coupled with great after sales service support from Bajaj Probiking has propelled the sales of Kawasaki Ninja 250R. We will continue our efforts in further strengthening the Ninja brand in India."
