Competition and positioning
The updated Ninja ZX-6R competes with the Aprilia RS 660, which carries a heftier price tag of Rs. 13.39 lakh (ex-showroom).
The Ninja ZX-6R has long been regarded as an accessible 600cc-class motorcycle, serving as an ideal bridge for riders moving from 400cc models to 1,000cc-class machines.
The modest price hike for the 2024 model makes it an appealing choice for those seeking to enhance their riding experience.
