The same LE moniker has been used earlier for Kawasaki’s adventure tourers like its bigger engined Versys 650. Now these quarter liter offerings are sharing the same title. Some other talks reveals, the company is working on this project from more than one year. On mechanicals, the machine will share the same chassis and powertrain from the Kawasaki Z250, as expected. Basically, Kawasaki has used and keep on employing this 250cc DOHC inline 2 cylinder mill in multiple touring friendly motorcycle variants.
Apart from this, a few expected elements on the bike include, common design cues from the bigger Versys 650 and, the USD front forks and rear monoshock for damping responsibilities.
