The 2015 - 2017 Ninja 250R continued the parallel-twin generation introduced in 2013, with the same engine, frame and chassis figures. The page for this version repeats the main updates of the 2013 bike: dual throttle valves for smoother response, a stiffer frame with revised damping, 10-spoke wheels, a 140 mm rear tyre and a new instrument panel. It was the 250R's last years before the 2018 redesign.
