Kawasaki Eliminator 400
The majority of the Eliminator series’ powertrains were developed from prior Ninja models with similar displacement ranges. The Kawasaki Eliminator 400 receives the same drivetrain as the Ninja 400, therefore this is still relevant. A 398cc parallel twin engine with a 6-gear transmission, able to produce 48 horsepower and 37 Nm of torque, powers the vehicle.
Features
The 400 has a circular instrument cluster that is totally digital and round LED headlights inspired by classic Eliminators. Although LEDs are used for both the turn signals and the tail lights, they might also be round.
The more expensive SE edition adds fork gaiters, a waterproof USB-C charging port, a distinctive leather seat, a Mitsuba Sankova GPS, and two front and rear cameras with dashcam functionality.
Price
The Japanese business is only releasing the Standard and SE variants. Costs start at 759,000 yen for the former (roughly about Rs 4.7 lakh) and 858,000 yen for the latter (roughly about Rs 5.31 lakh). It hasn’t been confirmed whether Kawasaki will ship it to India or not.
