The Kawasaki Eliminator 252 is one of the famous models from this manufacturer among motorcyclists. Thanks to their low seating position and playful handling, handling with it is very easy. Ideal for city and shorter off-shore trips. For larger jumps, the engine power of 30 hp, which the water-cooled twin provides at 12.500 rpm, falls somewhat short.
