Clean and Quiet

Powered by an electric motor, the Ninja e-1 creates no emissions when being operated. Its motor does not produce as much heat as a gasoline-powered engine. Silent, electric operation further contributes to the approachable package.

A Boost of Increased Power

With e-boost, riders can access increased power for approximately 15 seconds. When activated, acceleration is stronger and top speed is increased: 64 km/h >> 75 km/h (ECO), 88 km/h >> 105 km/h (ROAD).

WALK Mode (with Reverse)

This convenient mode assists with manoeuvring in a parking lot. When engaged, opening the throttle moves the bike forward at walking speed. Closing the throttle past the “zero” point moves the bike in reverse.

Battery Removal

The batteries can be removed by unlocking and opening the storage box cover, unlocking and opening the battery cover, and pulling them out.

Multiple Charging Options

There are three charging options: charging directly without a dock, charging with a dock, and offboard charging with batteries in place. Charging time is about 3. 7 hours for a full charge and 1. 6 hours for a partial charge. Charging a typical battery from 20% to 100% takes about 3 hours, depending on conditions.

Accessory Battery Charger

All the charging methods require an accessory charger, which can be plugged into an ordinary household power outlet. When charging with batteries removed, the charger can charge one battery at a time. If a second charger is used, two batteries could be charged simultaneously.

08 / 18

Accessory Adaptor

When offboard charging with the batteries in place, an accessory adaptor (to join the charger and the bike) is required. The batteries are charged together, which means there is no need to manually switch from one battery to the next. Giving both batteries a full charge takes 7.4 h (3.7 h x2) max.

Solid Build: Kawasaki-Designed Motorcycle Chassis

Light Weight

At only 140 kg, the light weight of the Ninja e-1 contributes to a rider-friendly package.

Disc Brakes with ABS

Front and rear disc brakes provide sure stopping performance, while ABS adds a measure of reassurance.

Naturally Relaxed Riding Position

A relaxed rider triangle accommodates a wide range of rider sizes and riding situations, contributing to the rider-friendly character. The relatively upright riding position and slightly foot-forward footpeg position put the rider in a position to control the bike while also offering rider comfort.

No-Clutch Operation

Having no clutch to operate—riders need only twist the throttle—greatly simplifies operation and contributes to a rider-friendly package.

Ninja Supersport Styling

Like its Ninja brethren, the Ninja e-1 features seductive, full-fairing bodywork. The large-volume bodywork attracts attention and gives the impression of a larger machine. This impression is reinforced by the high-class design and superb fit and finish, which are comparable to bikes from a larger displacement class. All-LED lighting contributes to a modern, high-tech image.
