As the much-awaited version of a significant update, Kawasaki Motor Indonesia (KMI) officially launched the 2025 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-25RR KRT Edition, bringing the well-known racing aesthetics of the Kawasaki Racing Team (KRT) in the World Superbike Championship (WorldSBK) to the Indonesian people. That launch becomes an opportunity for Kawasaki to again reflect on harnessing the racing technology in its visual appeal to be consumed.
Michael Chandra Tanadhi, Head of Sales & Promotion Department at KMI expressed excitement over the introduction of this new livery. “We are very happy to be able to present the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-25RR KRT Edition in Indonesia. With this new design, we hope to provide a new, more exclusive, and in-depth experience for Kawasaki loyal customers in Indonesia,” stated Tanadhi on an official announcement that was made on Saturday, 16th November 2024.
New Racing Livery and Design
Inspired by the livery of the Kawasaki Racing Team racing in WorldSBK, the 2025 Ninja ZX-25RR KRT Edition introduces Kawasaki’s racing spirit and continuity of its top-line lineage. Although the fundamentals of colour Kawasaki green continue to be part of the DNA, it carries updated graphics that give new energy to its look.
The new livery features a combination of white, yellow, and black striping along the body and offers a balanced look with aggression. The front and rear rims come in green, and Kawasaki Racing Team branding adorns the fuel tank with finesse, reminding everyone of the bike’s pure racing roots.
According to Michael, “This design gives a feel of a more beautiful look but improves the overall appearance of the motorbike, making it look fierce.” It is obvious that what these updates intend to achieve is the spirit of the racetrack on the street.

Performance and Core Technology
With a new striking design, the 2025 Ninja ZX-25RR KRT Edition remains the same at its core technology and performance.

The six-speed transmission ensures that gear shifts are endlessly smooth, and the bike has Kawasaki’s high technology such as KTRC, or Kawasaki Traction Control, and quick shifter. Though a performance level that emulates the brand’s racing roots, you can’t compromise on practical needs for everyday road use.

- Colour matched accent on the rims, which also gels with the whole design, improves the aerodynamics of the vehicle.
