STRONG, SIMPLE & RELIABLE MACHINE
Very Durable and Easy to Use
Powered by a 177cc single engine, the W175 offers a displacement advantage over its 150cc class rivals. Ample torque makes it easy to operate, offering a stress-free experience that allows the rider to focus on the ride. A 5-speed transmission and engine balancer that dampens unwanted vibrations contribute to a pleasant and comfortable ride.
STRONG, SIMPLE & RELIABLE MACHINE
The W175’s peashooter-style exhaust contributes to its retro look. The curved exhaust header pipe complements the engine design. The clear, crisp exhaust note adds to the rider’s comfort.

EXPERIENCE CLASSIC DRIVING
Highly Rigid Semi-Double Cradle Frame
The rigid and durable frame setup contributes to the W175’s unhurried handling character. A product of both function and form, the semi-double seat configuration also complements the retro styling, its simple design lending itself to customization.


Experience Classic Driving
The ø30 mm telescopic front forks are supported by dual shocks at the rear. The front and rear suspension work together with a sturdy frame, providing good shock absorption for a comfortable ride while offering ample damping for a pleasant ride.

EXPERIENCE CLASSIC DRIVING
In keeping with the retro design, the W175 features 17-inch spoked wheels at the front and rear. The tire tread pattern also contributes to the bike’s retro look.

EXPERIENCE CLASSIC DRIVING
The front disc brakes offer reliable stopping power. The rear drum brakes slow the bike down while adding to the retro look.

AUTHENTIC RETRO STYLE
Retro Style Crowned with the Name "W"
True to its W moniker, the W175 features a traditional, simple design similar to the W800 and W250, Kawasaki’s other authentic retro models. With the quality materials and fit-and-finish of a larger-class machine, the W175 stands out from the crowd.
AUTHENTIC RETRO STYLE
Simple instrumentation includes a classic analog-style speedometer equipped with an odometer, trip meter, and indicator lights. Like other models in the W family, the “W” emblem on the front of the speedometer adds a touch of class.

AUTHENTIC RETRO STYLE
The W175’s elegant, curved fuel tank shares the same design as the W250, contributing to the W family’s strong image. On the SE and Cafe models, knee pads add to the retro look.

AUTHENTIC RETRO STYLE
Engine fins contribute to the engine’s attractive appearance. All engine components are blacked out, creating a high-quality image. Silver bolts add a classy accent, just like the engine fins on the SE and Cafe models.

AUTHENTIC RETRO STYLE
The thick cushioning on the double seat offers good comfort for both rider and passenger. The stepped seat design contributes to the retro look of the standard W175. On the SE model, the seat features a tuck-and-roll design. The Cafe model, on the other hand, features a stylish two-person cafe seat that further enhances its chic style. The rear seat is thicker, mimicking the shape of a single seat cover. The TR model’s seat matches the tank’s slimmer design at the front and slightly upward curve at the rear.

AUTHENTIC RETRO STYLE
In addition to the distinctive cafe seats, the Cafe model features a meter visor, short rear fender, gold-colored rear shocks (in some colors), and a chrome exhaust guard, adding an extra touch of class.

AUTHENTIC RETRO STYLE
The W175TR is a street-ready scrambler with distinctive styling. Its sleek tank, upswept muffler, extended suspension, and multi-purpose tires give it an off-road feel.
