Japanese bike-maker Kawasaki is set to set heartbeats of the biking clan sometime soon with the highly anticipated launch of powerful 'Z250'. The bike-maker considers biking as a pretty serious affair and surely knows how to hold a prime spot amongst A- list of sports bike-makers in the global market. Last year the bike-maker had launched around five new bikes for the global market. The upcoming Z250 is said to borrow some designing cues from its elder sibling the Z800 with naked street-bike style. As per a latest update, the Z250 from Kawasaki has been spotted being tested on Indian roads, thereby indicating a possible launch sometime soon on cards.
The Kawasaki Z250 is said to be powered by 249cc, four-stroke, liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine that generates about 33 Bhp or raw power with 21 Nm of torque. The powerful engine is mated to a six speed transmission. The vertically designed 17-litre fuel tank gives the entire bike an upward stance. The bike boasts of improved fuel-injection system and dual throttle valve technology that returns an impressive fuel efficiency figure. Price for the bike has not been revealed yet, but it is anticipated that it may be offered at an affordable range.
The front fascia sports an aggressive stance with multi-reflector headlamp. The two cut seats blend well the sharp tail end. The smart LCD display updates the rider with all the vital information, it acts like a fuel gauge, reads out the trip meter and also functions like a speedometer. The wide handlebars give a better position and grip to the rider. For perfect balance the Z250 is placed on a fabricated steel frame. The front wheels get telescopic forks, whereas the rear is blessed with a monoshock suspension mated with rectangle swing-arm section. For complete control the bike gets single petal discs for front and rear. Moreover, the ten-spoke alloy wheel is also something to watch out for in this amazing machine.
Pricing and detailed technical specifications has not been revealed by the company for now and it may be known at a later date. Based on assumptions, the bike is expected to be launched under 3.5 Lakhs bracket.
