Kawasaki Motors Japan (Headquarters: Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture, Representative Director and President: Kenji Saeki) will release the street cruiser models 'ELIMINATOR', 'ELIMINATOR SE', and 'ELIMINATOR PLAZA EDITION' on July 18, 2026 (Saturday).

ELIMINATOR With its unique low & long form design, the ELIMINATOR has been a popular model since its debut. It inherits the universal design of motorcycles, with a horizontal shape from the tank to the tail that accentuates its form. In the Kawasaki mid-class lineup, the ELIMINATOR features a top-class low seat, with the handlebars positioned for a natural arm extension and the steps positioned for a comfortable knee bend. The 398cc parallel-twin engine delivers excellent control at low speeds with abundant torque and powerful, linear performance at high speeds. The large-displacement model-like presence of the body is lightweight, enhancing ease of use and reducing riding stress. With a compact round all-digital liquid crystal instrument panel that adds a modern touch and standard ETC2.0 onboard equipment kit, the ELIMINATOR guides riders to a refreshing riding world for daily use, commuting, and touring.
