Kawasaki updates colours and graphics for model year 2018

Kawasaki has updated the colour and graphic options for a number of models for the model year 2018. These updates include addition of new colours as a whole paint scheme, or to the existing schemes for a two-tone look. These changes will soon make it to the new batch of models. Of the top-of-the line supercharged siblings, the Kawasaki Ninja H2R gets an all new color and graphic treatment that is yet to be disclosed. The Kawasaki Ninja H2 Carbon will receive a mirror-coated spark black color in conjunction with matte spark black colour, giving it a dual-tone look.

A combination of carbon grey and emerald blazed green will make its way onto the ZZR1400 and ZZR1400 Performance Sport's body, albeit with variation in the graphical application.

Kawasaki will also extend the color updates to their scooter range, specifically the J-family. The J300 gets a metallic anthracite black and metallic-flat anthracite black, and a metallic matte gunmetal grey. The J125 shares the flat anthracite black and matte gunmetal grey, both in metallic finish, with the J300.

These changes will be seen on the new batch of models for model year 2018. Though Kawasaki hasn't said when will these updated models make to the showrooms, we believe they might be up at the stores before the end of this year. India may also get them soon thereafter.
