Description

As Kawasaki’s W Series looks forward to the 60th anniversary of the introduction of its first model, the 1965 650-W1, the new W230 retro sport model brings the rich heritage of classically styled machines with tried-and-true performance to the 250cc class. Complementing the traditional styling and classic ride feel inspired by the models of yesteryear, the W230’s light weight and low seat height give it an accessibility that opens the experience to an even wider audience of authentic motorcycling enthusiasts.

TECHNOLOGY

Chassis Management Technology

ABS (ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM)

Kawasaki ABS systems use front and rear wheel sensors to constantly monitor wheel speed. Should information from either of the sensors indicate that wheel lock has occurred, the ABS ECU directs the pump in the ABS unit to modulate brake fluid pressure (releasing and reapplying pressure so that traction can be regained) until normal operation resumes. ABS offers rider reassurance that contributes to greater riding enjoyment.
