The Ninja 1100SX for 2025 receives some comprehensive updates under its skin. While the overall design and aesthetics remain identical to the outgoing Ninja 1000SX. Powering the Ninja 1100SX is a liquid-cooled, 1,099cc, inline-four mill making 136hp at 9,000rpm and 113Nm of torque at 7,600rpm. Compared to the Ninja 1000SX, that’s a decrease of 6hp but an increase of 2Nm. Kawasaki has lengthened the Ninja 1100SX’s 5th and 6th cogs for lower engine rpm while cruising out on the highway, which it says also yields better fuel efficiency.
The Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX was a popular model for the Japanese company in India, as it combined litre-class performance with all-day comfort and touring capabilities. For now, Kawasaki India hasn’t gotten the 1100SX’s up-spec SE version with Ohlins suspension and Brembo brakes to India, and only the standard variant is on offer.
