This Tiny Kawasaki Ninja H2R Model Is A Sure Cure For Winter Blues

If you've worked on both bikes and cars, then you already know that one significant pro of taking apart bikes is that they are, generally speaking, a whole lot smaller. In many ways, that makes it both easier and more practical to start wrenching on a bike than a car…

Kawasaki Says Don't Ride Ninja e-1 or Z e-1 Until This Recall Issue Is Fixed

Doing something new sometimes isn't easy; a thing that Kawasaki Motors has been discovering in recent months. In 2024, the company introduced four bikes in completely new categories for the brand. The first two were the all-electric Ninja e-1 and Z e-1, and the second two were the Ninja 7…

If the Kawasaki NAV Isn't a Golf Cart, Then What Is It? Let's Talk About It

Common wisdom holds that you never get a second chance to make a first impression. And while a smart person might gather the facts over time and let those color their opinions appropriately, that first impression will still probably take up mental real estate, whether you want it to or…

Is Kawasaki Putting a Supercharged Superbike Engine Into a UTV?

Imagine you own a powersports company, and you have one of the coolest engines on the market, but you only use it in one vehicle. That's not just silly; it's borderline mean to your demographic—BRP, please take some notes and stick that 325-hp rotax engine in something else.

Are Chinese Manufacturers Bringing Back the Inline-4 Middleweight Sportbike?

Just a few years ago, some of the most desirable sportbikes were top-tier machines like the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10RR, or perhaps the razor-sharp BMW S 1000 RR. And while these bikes are well and truly bedroom wall poster material, consumer preferences have shifted to smaller, more sensible machines.

New Florida Bills Would Allow UTVs on Public Roads, Despite Warnings

I tested Kawasaki's Ridge Limited UTV last year, and later proposed that it could replace some people's trucks. It has a sealed cabin, HVAC system, and infotainment system, but you can't legally drive it on public roads in many states.

Buy This 1986 Kawasaki GPZ900R and Live Your Tom Cruise 'Top Gun' Dreams

I reckon Tom Cruise riding Kawasaki's GPZ900R in Top Gun influenced a ridiculous number of people to get on two wheels. Whether you know it or not, if you're between a certain age, there's a good chance it pushed you toward motorcycles.

Is Kawasaki Actually Serious About This New Motorcycle Voice Command Feature?

Maybe I’m just weird, but I never really got the whole idea of voice commands. Be it Siri, Hey, Google, Alexa, or even Hey, Cardo, the whole idea of summoning your device via voice always seemed a bit odd to me. You know, a little unnatural.

Praise Be, Kawasaki Will Revive the 2-Stroke Dirt Bike!

It was a dark day when Kawasaki discontinued the 2-stroke back in 2007. I cried. Our writers cried. The world cried. Collectively, we bemoaned Team Green killing our favorite brappy-bois, though we understood that it's hard to build an environmentally neutral 2-stroke and make a profit. Plus, 4-strokes are just so…

Kawasaki’s Revised KLX Motorcycles Bring All the Fun for a Fraction of the Price

One of the best days I spent on two wheels last year was on the 2025 Kawasaki KLX230R—I just didn't want to stop riding. The bike had just enough power to make me want to hoon on it but wasn't intimidating and was more than competent. So, when I saw…

Kawasaki’s Jet Ski STX 160 Series Is Back and Better Than Ever

I recently sang Kawasaki's praises for making such an affordable and fun KLX range for 2025. But personal watercraft (PWC) is not an industry that screams "affordability". However, if you want to get out on the water on a full-fat Jet Ski, Kawasaki's STX 160 Series means you don't have…

The Updated BMW R 18 Cruiser Gets Flashier Styling and a Bunch Of Tech

When you think of cruisers, chances are you think of big, beefy bikes with low seats and relaxed ergonomics. You know, bikes like the Harley Road King or Indian Challenger. Up until recently, it was really just those two names worth paying attention to in the cruiser scene. But these…

Polaris Drops Six New ATVs, Ready for Spring, Summer, and Fall Outdoor Activities

ATVs are some of the most useful, fun, and capable machines on the planet. Each day, they're used for farm chores, backcountry excursions, camping, hunting, fishing, and everything in between. They're workhorses but without the need for feed or constant grooming. I've used Kawasaki's Brute Force 750 for the last…
