From the dealer's page

Exciting two-wheel fun, practical two-wheel efficiency Practicality is the Kawasaki’s Ninja® 500R’s biggest asset as it strikes an ideal balance between function, form, and budget that’s rarely achieved in the sport bike world. A sensible sportbike, the 500R is ready to rip, yet remains friendly enough for beginners to feel confident in its manners.
