The sports tourer gets a 4.3-inch TFT instrument console that can be synced to the smartphone via the Rideology app. It comes equipped with Dunlop Sportmax Roadsport 2 tyres for better grip and handling. At the rear, it gets a wider and thicker pillion seat. The bike also gets a redesigned windshield flush-fitted with the upper cowl. 

The 2020 BS6 Ninja 650 is powered by a 649 cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine. The power figures remain identical to the BS4 model. The engine produces 68 bhp power at 8000 rpm and 64 Nm Torque at 6700 rpm. Transmission duty is carried out by a 6-speed unit.
