Engine and Transmission
This Kawasaki is equipped with a smooth six-speed gearbox featuring an assist and slipper clutch, ensuring reliable and responsive shifting under various riding conditions.
Quickshifter Technology
Kawasaki has made a two-way quickshifter a standard feature. This allows clutchless upshifts and, on certain models, clutchless downshifts as well. The system works by detecting shift lever actuation and signaling the ECU to momentarily cut ignition, enabling seamless gear changes without using the clutch.

Drivetrain
Power is delivered to the rear wheel via a chain, a classic and efficient method for motorcycles.
