On June 6, 2023, the 2024 Kawasaki Eliminator officially broke cover in the US market. The 451cc parallel twin-engined naked street machine will come in regular, ABS, and Special Edition ABS variants, with different colorways available for each version. Let’s take a look at what Team Green has in store for us with this new machine.
The 451cc parallel twin engine that powers it is based on the same platform as the Ninja 400, but it gains a 6.8mm longer stroke (that’s where the displacement boost comes from). A bonus to this configuration is more torque lower down in the rev range, which is especially helpful for low-speed handling. It gets a six-speed gearbox, along with an assist and slipper clutch.
