Positioned in Kawasaki's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2024 Kawasaki Eliminator utilizes a 451 cc (27.5 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 43 Nm (31.7 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 70.0 x 58.6 mm (2.8 x 2.3 inches) with a 11.3:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Eliminator measures 175 kg (386 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 715 mm (28.1 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,519 mm (59.8 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 12.87-liter (3.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
