Kawasaki India is offering a limited-time discount of Rs. 15,000 on its sole cruiser, the Eliminator. This discount applies to the bike’s ex-showroom price and is valid until the end of this month. While the offer isn’t as substantial as what’s seen on other models like the Z900 or Ninja 500, it still gives prospective buyers a little breathing room in the budget – maybe enough to snag a new helmet or some decent riding gear.
Design
The Kawasaki Eliminator is a textbook cruiser. It comes with a low-slung stance, a raked-out front fork, and a flat handlebar that gives it a relaxed riding posture. Everything about its silhouette screams old-school cruiser charm. However, there’s a bit of a letdown when it comes to colours. Currently, the Eliminator is only offered in Black, and for a cruiser, that feels a bit limited. Some variety in paint schemes would definitely help it stand out more on the streets.
Engine
Where the Eliminator breaks tradition is in its engine character. It’s powered by a 451cc, parallel-twin engine that delivers 44.7bhp and 42.6Nm of torque. It’s mated to a six-speed gearbox, and the motor is quite free-revving – something you don’t usually see on laid-back cruisers.
Most cruisers rely on low-end torque and lazy throttle responses, but the Eliminator flips the script. It has a more eager, responsive engine that leans toward sporty, making it ideal for those who want cruiser styling but don’t want to compromise on spirited performance.
Here’s a quick engine spec breakdown:
| Engine Type | 451cc, Parallel-twin, Liquid-cooled |
|---|---|
| Power Output | 44.7bhp |
| Torque | 42.6Nm |
| Gearbox | 6-speed manual |
Hardware
The Eliminator rides on a trellis frame, which is both lightweight and strong. Suspension duties are handled by a conventional telescopic fork up front and dual shock absorbers at the rear, offering a balance of comfort and handling.
When it comes to braking, it gets a 310mm disc up front and a 240mm disc at the rear, both equipped with ABS for added safety. The setup feels adequate for the kind of performance the bike offers.
Features
Kawasaki hasn’t cut corners with features. The Eliminator gets a decent tech package, including LED lighting all around, a fully digital instrument cluster, ABS, ride modes, traction control, and even turn-by-turn navigation.
It’s a cruiser, yes, but it’s clearly built with modern-day riders in mind. Everything is functional and rider-focused, while still giving off that retro cruiser charm.
Offer
Now, about that discount. The Rs. 15,000 price cut isn’t earth-shattering, but it’s welcome. It brings down the overall cost a bit and could be put toward other essentials like gear, accessories, or even your first service. But do note, the offer is only valid till the end of this month. So, if you’ve been eyeing the Eliminator, now might be the right time to visit your local Kawasaki dealership.
