Automatic shifting is a game changer not a garbage at all!

[memoktc]

This bike is perfect....i like the walk mode....i wish more future bikes have this function....i cant tell you how many times all those big adventure bikes could really benefit from this mode.

FWIW, the shifting was so short because you were in "ECO" mode. In that mode it attempts to be as efficient as possible.

This bike is prefect for me because I travel country by road so when at custom they will be so many bike I mean so many few hundred thousand bike crossing daily…it will take 40 to 1 hrs to cross country… so with slow traffic below 10kmp this bike just prefect… using ninja 1000sx so stuck at traffic for more then 40 minutes with all the engine heat Daam it’s hot 🥵

Interesting how Kawasaki are using the River Logo on this hybrid motorcycle. I thought it was only found on the super charged models! I guess the Logo represents innovation and this hybrid is certainly innovative.

The video is really nice and informative. I'm watching you from Turkey and fuel prices are quite expensive here, I think this baby will be the most economical form of pleasure and passion and will be my new dream.

I feel like this bike has a weird audience.

Most people who want an electric motorcycle want one that is fully electric, and are fine with the quirks that come with it (lack of shifting, charging).

Most people who want a normal gas bike probably don't care to drop a significant amount of money for slightly better mpg and also something that lacks traditional bike features like a shift lever.

Its really cool to see new tech like this, and I commend Kawasaki for even just making a bike like this, but I feel its in a weird spot in the market.

The vents are for cooling the battery.

[LEGENDofMADDOG]

Is there a way to turn off the auto start stop

[AyaWetts]

Its a good idea... I think they have a long way to go to make it something really good though.

It's strange to me that they decided on a parallel hybrid rather than a series hybrid, where the motor only charges the battery, and the wheels receive mechanical power through the electric motor alone. Especially since their goal was efficiency rather than performance, which i thought wasn't the case.

In a series hybrid, the engine can be fined tuned for efficiency at a single RPM, whatever is enough to charge the battery while the EM is running. You could also have a smaller engine and ditch the gearbox and mechanical drivetrain, reducing weight and increasing durability. You lose the top end performance of an ICE, but that seems a lot more inline with Kawasaki's goals here.

I'm not an engineer, or even all that smart to begin with, so if anyone knows why they would choose a parallel hybrid, please let me know!

Helpful review, thanks. I was wondering about the new Hybrid Kawasaki. Expensive in the US at 12, 000 from what I saw, and many pounds heavier really is heavier, 502.7 lb* (incl. battery) defeating some of the efficiency unfortunately, but still an interesting start. Thanks.

How much does the hybrid battery cost to replace?

[ZahidKhan-ixcv]

What is the maximum speed you can go on this bike ..?

[Poise]

Didn't know a dual clutch was just two transmissions lmaoooo

[LooxJJ]

By 2030, in accordance with upcoming Euro 6/+ for 2 wheel vehicles along with California emission standard, all bike manufacturers will eventually only produce hybrid / e-bikes.

[SuperDeluxe]

Its roughly the same gas mileage as a ninja 400 if you drive the speed limit.

[seizedkeyboard]

All interesting. My question is how is that cheap boxed steel swing arm acceptable. It looks so cheap and awful. The wheelbase is so long!
