@himanshuvaibhav what? Why the hell did yall start getting political over this What does democracy or elites have to do with kawasaki not selling a high end 250 in an irrelevant market
Who ever want to buy this bike.....just buy it, sound great, without scary performance but with a lot of fun!!! Sometime i wish honda or yamaha make 4 cylinder with 250cc engine too🤓🤓
Maybe because of stringent emission regulations (Euro 6) 4 cylinder will be rare nowadays.. albeit with more cost to produce and maintain.i do really miss 4 and 6 cylinder motorcycle..perticularly the Kawasaki H2 2stroke 750.
They have been made.... In 2000 there was a suzuki gsf250 (bandit) for EU market, but those revved up to 17k (18k redline , where these ones have 20k). As one can guess they sold poorly , but if you want you can still get them at Hungary or some other places where they were popular. Also UK got those 250cc bikes so technically you could still scoop them up at UK and then change the lights. I myself have a suzuki gsf250 GJ74A , which has the 20k revving engine and it's registered in the EU ,but that's because there was a time where some countries that weren't a part of EU , could import these bikes and you could drive around with your car license. Basically if you want to find them with EU number plate's , look for them online on countries that became part of EU after 2005. You will get the old one , but with some modifications , it would come close to the new ones..
@@sorawai8386 The problem is probably the emission values of the european norms It makes it really hard to produce motocycles for us. espacally if they abled to go up to 18rpm What u think why all 600 died ? Because its to expensive to make them Europe-conform
Kawasaki is really killing it this past few years. They debuted a lot of new bikes, and brought back older legends with updates without a sky high price. This biggest win is they actually listened to what the customers want.
Agreed. Bought a brand new Ninja 650 in 2019 and bought a brand new 2021 ZX10 in November of last year. They really are the best brand for the money IMO

True, a lot of beginner riders buy big cc bikes because smaller cc's sound like crap. This would urge more to buy 250's and 400's to learn on. Sadly, all motorcycle companies KNOW this. Just check out any 250/400 in the 90ies. just the 2 cyl's are dirt cheap to make, hence more profit.
