Positioned in Kawasaki's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2009 Kawasaki Eliminator 125 relies on a 124 cc (7.6 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke powerplant. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 55.0 x 52.4 mm (2.2 x 2.1 inches) with a 9.6:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Eliminator 125 measures 145 kg (320 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 681 mm (26.8 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,471 mm (57.9 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 12.86-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
