The authorized distributor of Bajaj and Kawasaki motorcycles in Nepal, Hansraj Hulaschand Company, has launched the Kawasaki Ninja 250R in the Nepalese market. Hansraj Hulaschand Company commenced bookings for Ninja in the first week of April, when the bike was officially revealed to the public.

Amit Nandi, Vice-President, Bajaj Auto Limited, India -

The Kawasaki Ninja 250R is a popular machine for novices and experienced riders alike. It is known for its light handling, good fuel economy and comfortable riding posture

Shekhar Golchha, Executive Director, Hansraj Hulaschand & Company -

Bajaj has already created a mark amongst all segments of motorcycles in Nepal. With the Kawasaki Ninja, we attempt to bring in a whole new segment of customers who take pro-biking seriously and enjoy it through-and-through

The Kawasaki Ninja 250R launched in Nepal possesses the same looks and tech specs as its Indian counterpart. The bikes sold in Nepal, are shipped from Pune, and then minor assembly of the bikes is carried out by the dealers in Nepal before handing over the bikes to customers.

The Ninja 250R in Nepal is available in two paint shades namely Lime Green and Ebony Black. The bike has been priced at 7,49,000 Nepali Rupees, which translates to 4,68,125 Indian Rupees.

The Ninja 250R in India has not met the expected sales targets set by Bajaj Auto Limited (BAL) in India, mainly due to its 3-lakh INR price tag. With the bike being priced even higher in the Nepalese market, I have no clue as to how many takers the bike will find there.
