2006 was the last model year of the retro motorcycle Kawasaki W 650, now take the Japanese with the W 800 has a successor. While the W 650 had slightly more capacity than the model assumed name suggests, namely, 676 cc, the successor to make do with less, namely 773 cc to be exact. The capacity increase, the Kawasaki has indulged in his modern classic belauft, is therefore approximately 100 cubic.

This leads to more capacity but not to improving the performance: The Official certification is not yet complete, so there is no official value, but with Kawasaki, it is assumed that the W 800 is to provide about 48 to 50 HP so that it is at the level of the W 650 or possibly even slightly lower. In addition to the more stringent emissions regulations, a torque-oriented interpretation of the cause of this. The price for the new machine has not yet been finalized but is expected to be around about 8100 €.
