Developed for riders in search of a well-rounded bike that is not only rich in history and character, but also packed with modern technology and handling features, the W800 CAFE is powered by an aircooled 773cc vertical twin engine, and features an updated modern double-cradle frame design and modern suspension components that bring an unmatched level of authenticity and performance to the retro motorcycle category.
The sleek sweeping contours and meticulous fit and finish of the W1 redefined the standards of motorcycle design in the 1960’s. Kawasaki has applied the same meticulous attention to detail in building the W800 CAFE, from the iconic appearance of the air-cooled bevel gear driven vertical twin engine to the elegant gas tank and muffler design, all the way down to the retro themed wheels.
The W800 CAFE motorcycle is packed with plenty of modern technology including an Assist and Slipper Clutch, Kawasaki advanced analysis designed frame, and an LED headlamp. The
W800 CAFE is returning for 2021 Metallic Matte Fusion Silver/Metallic Spark Black with an MSRP of $9,799
