Even Stronger Engine
Downdraft intake layout and symmetrically aligned intake and exhaust deliver a strong over-run and smooth low-rpm torque characteristics. Redesigned intake offers a much straighter route for air-fuel mix to enter the cylinder, while a centrally positioned exhaust port lines up with the intake for high airflow efficiency-both contributing to increased performance.
Single-Shaft Primary Balancer
A single-shaft primary engine balancer contributes to smoother power delivery and reduced vibration, which improves control, especially when exiting slower-speed corners.
Race-Ready Suspension
High-performance Showa 49 mm inverted coil-spring fork and New Uni Trak rear suspension offer race-ready suspension performance and adjustability to let riders tune their settings to suit conditions. Spring rates and damping settings optimised for the cross-country scene offer increased feedback, especially when riding on challenging trails.
Quick-Release Side Cover
Left side cover can be removed without tools, facilitating access to the air filter element. The element is now secured with quick-release hooks (previously a wing bolt), which makes changing the air filter a much simpler taskâ€â€Âsomething that enduro or cross-country racers will especially appreciate.
Kawasaki Traction Control
Using the Traction (T) button on the left handlebar, riders can quickly and easily select from two levels (Weak, Strong) of traction control to suit conditions and preference. Riders may also elect to turn the system off.
Holeshot Advantage
Factory-style launch control system increases the chance of getting a good start by helping riders maximise traction when starting on a low-traction surface.
