The Kawasaki W175 is a single cylinder motorcycle produced by Kawasaki from 2017. The W175 is a retro style model that emulates the Kawasaki W series, being the lightest bike of the series by having air-cooled 177 cc four-stroke engine, with curb weight of 126 kg[1]. Rather than fuel injected, the W175 is carburettor-fuelled which employs a Mikuni VM24 carburetor. It also does not have a kickstart.
World premiere launch of this bike was held on November 20th 2017 at Kawasaki Bike Week 2017[2]. The retro style includes a teardrop styled 13.5 litre fuel tank (except for the dual purpose TR model), as well as a ribbed saddle, wire wheels and a special W-logo on both sides of the tank, which refers to the W series models[3][4]. The bikes are available in different trims as below.
