The Kawasaki W175 is a 177 cc (10.8 cu in) air-cooled four-stroke single-cylinder motorcycle made by Kawasaki since 2017. It is a retro styled, like the Kawasaki W series.[1][2][3]
Kawasaki began selling the W175 in November 2017.[4][5] The engine is fuelled by a Mikuni VM24 carburetor. Like the W800, the bike does not have a kick start, instead it is equipped with electric start. No center stand (although a side stand does come as standard), no tachometer, and no fuel indicator.[6][7][8]
This bike gains some popularity among bike modification enthusiasts, including President Jokowi of Indonesia who owns a chopper-style modified version of this bike and Governor Ridwan Kamil of West Java.[9][10][11]
It is sold in a few different versions, including the W175 Standard, W175 Cafe, and W175 TR dual purpose. All versions except the dual-purpose have a teardrop styled 13.5 L (3.0 imp gal; 3.6 US gal) fuel tank.[12][13] The dual purpose TR models have a 7.5 l fuel tank. For the lighting equipment, the bike uses halogen bulbs for the H4 60/55 headlight with clear multi reflectors.[14][15]
Performance wise, the bike was tested by an automotive journalist team and got a top speed figure of 110.1 km/h. Based on the test, the bike could accelerate to 100 km/h speed in 16.3 seconds.[7]
