Engineered by Kawasaki for the allround motorcycle segment, the 2019 Kawasaki W800 Cafe utilizes a 773 cc (47.2 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 77.0 x 83.0 mm (3.0 x 3.3 inches) with a 8.4:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the W800 Cafe measures 222 kg (489 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,466 mm (57.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 15.14-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
