If straight-line speed is your priority, the Ninja ZX-4RR ABS takes the lead. With 41 HP more than the R125, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the R125 has a clear advantage.

Riders with a shorter inseam should lean towards the Ninja ZX-4RR ABS. Its seat height is 20mm lower than the R125, making it much easier to flat-foot at stoplights and increasing confidence during stops. Bottom Line: While both are capable, the zx4r offers a superior power-to-weight ratio, making it the more exciting machine for experienced riders.
