Kawasaki calls it the reincarnation, I call it a whole new beast, feast your eyes on the Modenas Z250 ABS
Kawasaki and Modenas made a statement with their reentry into the Malaysian market, actually, they made three, but for now, we shall focus solely on the Modenas Z250 ABS which will set you back RM 19,500.
The Modenas Z250 ABS will be a locally assembled CKD unit just like the other two reintroduced bikes and comes in only one striking colour, Metallic Spark Black and I personally find this colour so appealing.
The Modenas Z250 ABS has dimensions of 1990/800/1060mm and has a wheelbase of 1370mm. The seat is 795mm off the ground and this bike weighs 165kg, with a fuel capacity of 14 litres.
At the heart of the Modenas Z250 ABS is a 2-cylinder DOHC fuel injection engine with an electric starter producing a maximum power of 27.5kW and maximum torque of 23Nm. It is also similar to the engines found in the other two reintroduced models as well.
The Modenas Z250 ABS is equipped with a 6-speed wet clutch drivetrain on a high-tensile steel frame. It also has single brake discs on both wheels and LED headlights, taillights and brake lights. Once again, these are all similar to the other two models as well.
The Modenas Z250 ABS shares the same Kawasaki technology found in the Modenas Ninja 250 ABS which is an ERGO-FIT assist and slipper clutch and an economical riding indicator as well as Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS).
Modenas CEO, Roslan Roskan, said “We at MODENAS are very proud to share the same ethos with KAWASAKI in prioritising customers which will enable and ensure that all our customers get affordable, quality and technology-driven products. We aim to bring unique solutions and a heightened experience to the two-wheeled market.”
“My message to all KAWASAKI motorcycles owners, old and new; you can rest assure(d) that under the management of MODENAS, you can expect similar or superior levels of customer service. MODENAS is continuously observing, learning and adapting the business operations of our technical partner and shareholder, Kawasaki Motors Limited,” he added.
He elaborated, “Together with the representatives from KAWASAKI, we are all set for greater business expansions. Bringing you products and offerings to elevate your lifestyle through its wholesome experience. Till then, make sure to keep a close eye for our upcoming developments.”
