Expert opinion and recommendation

The Kawasaki W800 Street is a motorcycle that perfectly encapsulates the essence of retro styling with modern engineering. My experience with this bike has been nothing short of enchanting, with its air-cooled 773cc parallel-twin engine delivering a refined and smooth ride. The assist and slipper clutch makes downshifting a breeze, and the five-speed gearbox, although not ideal for high-speed cruising, is well-suited for backroad adventures. The bikes design is a masterpiece, with its minimalistic yet elegant lines, chrome accents, and analog dials that transport you back in time. However, the price point of Rs 7.33 lakh ex-showroom does make it a bit pricey compared to its rivals. Despite this, the W800s unique charm, comfortable riding position, and plush seat make it a compelling choice for those who value both style and substance.

The 2025 Kawasaki W800 boasts a classic design with modern engineering, including large-diameter 19” front and 18” rear wheels that provide a fine balance of relaxed, light turning and straight-line stability. The bike also features sound tuning to enhance the riding experience, although some owners have noted the bike can be too quiet and lack an engine growl. I think the balance between classic handling and modern sound tuning is a great achievement.

The Kawasaki W800 is known for its reliability, with one owner reporting 10 years of ownership without major issues beyond a dead battery. Servicing is also simple due to the absence of faring or water cooling systems. However, owners have noted issues with surface rust on chrome components and the need for frequent polishing. I believe the reliability outweighs the maintenance hassles, making it a good choice for long-term ownership.

The 2024 Kawasaki W800 ABS is priced at $10,399, with a destination charge of $650. The bike features a double-cradle high-tensile steel frame, telescopic front forks, and twin rear shocks, ensuring a comfortable and stable ride. With its authentic W1-inspired styling and modern features, its a great option for those looking for a retro-classic motorcycle. I think the pricing is reasonable given the blend of classic design and modern technology.

Kawasaki has retained the iconic styling of the W800 while adding modern upgrades, including an advanced ABS system for improved braking performance and a digital fuel injection system for efficient fuel management. The bike also features a 773cc air-cooled vertical-twin engine tuned for low-mid range performance, making it perfect for urban cruising and long-distance touring. I believe these updates make the W800 a compelling choice for those seeking a blend of retro charm and modern reliability.
September 14, 2024
The 2025 Kawasaki W800 has been updated with a striking new livery, featuring black side panels, a tank in Metallic Midnight Gold and Metallic Diablo Black, and a yellow stripe below the W emblem. This new color scheme enhances the bikes classic look, blending tradition with modern aesthetics. I think this new design will appeal to both long-time enthusiasts and new admirers.

Price

Pricing details and changes

In India, the Kawasaki W800 Street is priced at Rs 7.33 lakh ex-showroom, which places it in a premium segment. When you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other charges, the price can easily cross the Rs 8.5 lakh mark. While this may seem steep, especially when compared to competitors like the Triumph Bonneville T100 and Speed Twin 900, the W800s unique blend of retro aesthetics and modern technology justifies the cost for enthusiasts. The price includes features like a double-cradle frame, adjustable clutch and brake levers, and dual-channel ABS, making it a well-rounded package. However, for those on a tighter budget, the premium pricing might be a deterrent.
