Model Name:Z250 (2013-)

Manufacturer:KAWASAKI

Model Year:2013

The 250cc street fighter model, Z250. It has an aggressive muscular style, excellent performance, and extreme quality.
You can foresee its hidden performance from its strong and powerful body. All of its design, such as its compact headlight cowl, its sharp shroud, its engine, exhaust pipe or its tail cowl, exhibits its strong presence. You can tell that it’s the model “Z” at one glance.
It mounts a water-cooled parallel twin engine with a dual throttle valve. While instantly responding at all RPM range, the engine operates smoothly with plenty of torque at low-mid RPM range. It makes the bike easy to handle on street roads while giving the rider a sporty powerful feeling at the same time.
In addition, the engine adopts a balancer and a rubber mount to suppress excessive vibration. It also has a radiator fan cover that releases the heat downward to make the rider feel comfortable while driving. The diamond frame that adopts a high-tension steel has both excellent rigidity balance and durability. The front and rear suspension enables a comfortable ride on street roads and stabilizes the cornering action to let you enjoy the sporty ride.
The brake has good heat dissipation ability and is equipped with a petal-shaped disc that has good braking power and controllability. The sporty looking 10-spoke wheel, the short silencer, and the 140mm width rear tire create the image of a powerful street fighter model.
The meter panel has both an analog tachometer and a multi-functional LCD screen. It also adopts an amber-colored LED for its backlight. All in all, they give a sporty impression and good visibility. The seat shape is designed to improve the ground clearance problem. The handlebar is positioned rather widely and upright to make the rider’s driving posture more comfortable. The bike is also equipped with 4 luggage hooks, a helmet holder under the rear seat, and a two-staged storage space to make it have a better usability.
