AN INSTANT CLASSIC.
The 1960s spirit runs deep in the Kawasaki W retro-classic lineup with class-leading authentic styling, sound, and feel. A true throwback to the iconic W1, modern W800 motorcycles are meticulously crafted to pay homage to the past, all while thoughtfully incorporating modern technology and features.

• 773cc AIR-COOLED VERTICAL-TWIN ENGINE
• ASSIST & SLIPPER CLUTCH
• TRADITIONAL EXHAUST SYSTEM
ORIGINAL W1-INSPIRED STYLING
Kawasaki W motorcycles have never known conformity. The W800 retro classic line is dedicated to preserving the 1960s image, sound, and feel. Ride in style. Both W800 models come in equally eye-catching classic colors. The striking curves of the sculpted fuel tank naturally draw the eye, further adding to the iconic style elements of the W800 motorcycle. The larger volume makes an unmistakably powerful impression. The individual speedometer and tachometer exhibit a classic display while a multi-function LCD screen adds a modern touch. A large 170mm LED headlamp casts a bright, white light. Six total chambers light the way, four for low beam plus an additional two chambers for high beam. Position lamps in the high-beam chambers ensure the whole lamp appears lit, like a retro-style bulb headlamp. Details like a convex lens and chromed headlamp ring make note of the high-quality, classic design.
BREAK THE STATUS QUO
Power and performance features combine with authentic Kawasaki W1 style for an exhilarating ride. The W800 motorcycle is powered by a vertical twin-cylinder 773cc four-stroke engine that features a distinct bevel gear-driven camshaft and SOHC 4-valve head tuned for strong low- to mid-range performance. Abundant torque is complemented by the clean operation of modern fuel injection. A classic muffler design emits the throaty exhaust note that makes parallel-twin engines infamous. Twin mufflers with carefully tuned internals deliver the characteristic note of the vertical twin's 360° crankshaft engine configuration--a throwback to the original Kawasaki W1 motorcycle.
THOUGHTFUL DESIGN
Premium ergonomic features offer comfort for a wide range of riding applications. Compact switchgear gives the handlebar an uncluttered and vintage appearance while modern internals ensures reliable performance. A standard handlebar and a tuck and roll seat provide a relaxed riding position. 5-way adjustable clutch lever and 4-way adjustable brake lever enable riders to fine-tune lever position.
