The 2022 Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX arrives in two colour options - Emerald Blazed Green and Metallic Matte Graphenesteel Gray, which remains the big change over the older version.

India Kawasaki Motor has introduced a new colour scheme on the Ninja 1000 sports tourer. The 2019 Kawasaki Ninja 1000 now gets the metallic matte fusion silver paint scheme and is available for the same price of Rs. 10.29 lakh (ex-showroom). The new colour scheme is limited to just 60 units for India. Kawasaki says there was an increased demand for more colours from customers that prompted the manufacturer to introduce the new shade. The new colour will be sold alongside the current options - candy lime green and metallic spark black.

The 2019 model year Kawasaki Ninja 1000 has minor cosmetic updates over the outgoing model, and bookings are open at Kawasaki dealerships.

The new Ninja 1000 carries forward the same engine, chassis and suspension, but gets a host of upgrades, in the form of some design changes and a complete electronics rider aid package, featuring a 6-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) as well

Of late there has been little happening in the Sport Touring motorcycle segment, with manufacturers concentration on more focused motorcycles be it for the track or adventure tourers or modern classics. But Kawasaki has submitted patent drawings for the Ninja 1000 that is touring oriented.
