In 2008, Kawasaki gave the EX250 its first big makeover after many years. The EX250-J model is known as the Ninja 250R worldwide, regardless of market.
Parts from the third generation are still found on the -J, but its redesigned exterior panels bring the Ninja's appearance out of the 1990s and into line with late-2000s sportbikes. The engine and
drivetrain retain 30% of the -F model's parts, according to Kawasaki.[
