Kawasaki has two new motorcycles for young riders in Europe, the Kawasaki Ninja 125 and the Kawasaki Z125. We have already shown you the fully faired Ninja 125, and now here is the naked version of that platform, the Z125.
As you would expect then, this A1/A2 license compliant machine features a 125cc, water-cooled, single-cylinder engine that makes 15hp and 8 lbs•ft of torque. Wrapped in a steel trellis frame, the 2019 Kawasak Z125 tips that scales at 323 lbs at the curb, fueled and ready to go.
Debuting at INTERMOT, the Kawasaki Z125 represents Team Green’s commitment to new two-wheeled enthusiasts, and the motorcycle looks like a solid choice for beginners, as well as veteran riders who are looking for something smaller in their garage.
In person, the build quality on the 2019 Kawasaki Z125 looks quite high, with the Japanese brand picking some quality pieces to outfit the budget-focused machine.
The LCD dash is thought out well, the petal-shaped front brake disc continues Kawasaki’s design trend in this space, and the bodywork and paint is attractively done. ABS is of course standard.
Unfortunately for American riders, the new Kawasaki Z125 and the Kawasaki Ninja 125 are exclusive to the European market only.
There is no word yet on pricing or availability, but we would imagine an aggressive MSRP and a spring arrival in the dealerships.
