A full-fledged naked bike equipped with a 248cc parallel twin engine

The Z250 is a genuine super naked machine that combines lightness and power. Its 248cc parallel twin engine delivers excellent throttle response and a powerful feeling across the entire rev range.

The engine model is the EX250PE, which embodies the design philosophy of Kawasaki’s proud parallel twin engine. Despite being in the 248cc class, it is characterized by its performance that allows you to enjoy serious sports riding.

Trellis frame provides nimble handling

The body is made of a lightweight yet highly rigid trellis frame, which, combined with a front suspension with an inner tube diameter of 41mm, provides nimble, natural handling and riding stability.

The combination of a lightweight body and a highly rigid frame promises a nimble ride on winding roads, and the chassis performance is well-suited for a super naked bike.

“Sugomi” design common to the Z series

In addition, the “Sugomi” design elements common to the Z series create a silhouette that is instantly recognizable as a Kawasaki super naked, captivating riders with its aggressive and agile image.

One of the great attractions of the Z250 is its styling that asserts its presence as a super naked. The design philosophy of the Z series that Kawasaki has cultivated over the years has been passed down to models in this class.
