Giving a barebones, small displacement motorcycle a vintage-inspired look is a surefire way to transform it from a boring, appliance-like commuter, to a soulful neo-retro machine that turns heads as you pass by. Indeed, many manufacturers have made a killing by employing this strategy, and even managed to capture the attention of a good number of first time riders in the process.
In the Asian market, Kawasaki has been selling the W175 for a few years now. Just like its bigger sibling the W800, the W175 is a laid-back UJM that’s perfectly at home cruising city streets in style and comfort. Interestingly, however, Kawasaki is set to launch the W175 in the Indian market for the first time on September 25, 2022. Needless to say, a lot of retro-enthusiasts in India are surely eagerly anticipating this upcoming retro model.
