New Kawasaki 500 Prices in 2024: Z500, Ninja 500, and Eliminator 500
Kawasaki is having a pivotal moment as they unveil the prices for their new 500cc models for 2024. The new Z500 and Z500SE, Ninja 500 and Ninja 500 SE, as well as the Eliminator 500 and its SE version, are all part of this exciting lineup.
Introduction
Kawasaki introduced these new models at the end of last year, and the public got a first look at them during the EICMA show in Milan. These new Kawasaki 500cc bikes are set to replace the 400cc models over time within the Japanese manufacturer’s lineup. This is a significant evolution for Kawasaki as these models are expected to be high-volume sellers. Placing these bikes in the top 50 of new motorcycle sales could help Kawasaki maintain a strong presence in the French market. Additionally, these bikes are A2 compliant, often serving as the first new motorcycle for many riders. This is quite impactful.
Prices for the New Kawasaki 500 Models in 2024:
- Z500: €5,999 (available in March)
- Z500 SE: €6,349 (available in March)
- Ninja 500: €6,499 (available in March)

The Ninja 500 promises to offer sporty performance suitable for both city and road riding.
The Eliminator 500 revives a well-known name within Kawasaki’s history. It is significantly more affordable than the Vulcan S 650, which is priced at €8,349.
