The Kawasaki W800 will return in 2019
A couple of years ago, Kawasaki had to stop selling the W800 in Europe because it didn’t comply with stricter emissions regulations that were being introduced. Now, though, the retro-styled bike has been resurrected.
While the 2019 model looks almost the same as before, around 90% of the components are new (including the frame). Another major development is Kawasaki’s plan to offer Street and Cafe versions.
Both guises a powered by a twin-cylinder engine that’s still a 773 cc, air-cooled unit. Target output remains at 47 bhp (35 kW / 48 PS) and, of course, the latest Euro4 pollution standards have been achieved.
LED lighting, a rear disc brake and an anti-lock system are among the specification enhancements. Full details are due to be announced early next year.
