Kawasaki W800 Summary

Kawasaki’s retro-style W800 received a BS6 upgrade in 2020. The changes, however, are limited to the mechanical upgrades to comply with the newest emission norms. The 773cc, twin-cylinder, air-cooled motor makes 50.2 bhp of maximum power and 62.9 Nm of peak torque in BS6 guise. The motor is linked to a five-speed gearbox.

In terms of design, the W800 packs a retro look that is emphasised by a round headlight, wire-spoke wheels, and many chrome treated parts. The retro styling is complemented by modern features such as an LED headlight, a semi-digital instrument cluster, and an assist and slipper clutch mechanism. The hardware comprises of telescopic forks at the front and twin-sided springs at the back to perform the shock absorption task. The braking setup includes single discs on both wheels.

The BS6-compliant Kawasaki W800 is available in a single colour option – Metallic Flat Spark Black with Metallic Matte Graphite Grey. The motorcycle rivals the likes of Triumph Street Twin and the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 in the Indian market.

Kawasaki W800 Review

  • Good Things

    • Gets modern retro styling
    • 773cc engine is refined and torquey
    • Gets adjustable levers
  • Could be Better

    • Priced quite high
    • Expensive to maintain
    • No traction control system

BikeWale's Take

The W800 is a modern retro motorcycle from Kawasaki. It was launched in India as there’s a big market for such bikes in India. This Kawasaki is known for its simple design and cycle parts and also the quality. Unfortunately, it is priced a bit higher and also doesn’t get things like traction control system.

      One of the best buying experiences.
      The riding experience is very very cool and smooth.
      Look like a panther, performance is one of the best performances from others.
      I had never serviced and maintenance yet but I know this maintenance price is well priced.
      Pros and cons are genuinely different and awesome from others.
