Engine Management Technology

EV (Electric Vehicle):

As the world moves towards Carbon Neutrality, Kawasaki is developing a number of future mobility solutions. Kawasaki electric vehicles offer a clean and quiet alternative to models powered by internal combustion engines (ICE). Leveraging a long history of producing motorcycles designed to be fun to ride and fun to control, Kawasaki’s EV bikes maintain the riding excitement for which Kawasaki motorcycles are known. Strong off-the-line acceleration and response is complemented by attractive motorcycle styling and a motorcycle-like riding character that offers confident handling and light maneuverability, showing that good times are not limited to ICE models, and can be easily accessible to a wide range of riders.

Power Modes

Models equipped with multiple Power Modes offer riders an easily selectable choice of engine power delivery to suit riding conditions or preference. In addition to Full Power mode, one (Low) or two (Middle, Low) alternate mode(s) in which maximum power is limited and throttle response is milder are provided.

Zero Emission Riding:

Zero-emission-capable models like Kawasaki’s Electric Vehicles (EV)—and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) running in EV Mode—create no emissions when being operated. In addition to being environmentally friendly, zero-emission riding offers the possibility to enter restricted areas where ICE (internal combustion engine) vehicles are prohibited.

Chassis Management Technology

ERGO-FIT

Proper fit is key for rider comfort and control. However, the ideal fit varies from rider to rider, depending on their physical dimensions and riding style.

ERGO-FIT is an interface system designed to allow riders to find their ideal riding position. Various points of the chassis interface (the handlebar, footpegs and seat, etc.) can be adjusted through a combination of interchangeable parts and parts with adjustable positions. This enables a wide range of riders to find a riding position that offers both comfort and control. Feeling at one with their machine, they will be able to experience how Kawasaki machines are fun and rewarding to ride.
