We review the 2024 Kawasaki Eliminator, an all-new entry-level cruiser with a sporty character.
The new 2024 Kawasaki Eliminator slots above smaller beginner bikes to be a motorcycle that both new and intermediate riders can enjoy. It’s powered by a liquid-cooled 451cc parallel-Twin derived from the Ninja 400 engine but with a longer stroke for added torque.
The Eliminator features a 28.9-inch seat height, a weight of only 386 lb (base model), and mid-mount footpegs, all important considerations for new riders looking for an easy-to-ride bike on which to practice the basics. It also has a slim fuel tank, all LED lighting, and a round LCD display with Bluetooth connectivity through Rideology the app.
Additional tech on the Eliminator includes a slip/assist clutch for lighter clutch feel, a positive neutral finder, and ABS on the ABS and SE versions.
The Eliminator comes in three version: base, ABS, and SE. The SE version includes a two-patterned seat, fork boots, a USB-C charging port, a headlight cowl, and the Candy Steel Furnace Orange/Ebony colorway. The base and ABS versions come in Pearl Robotic White and Pearl Storm Gray.

Here in the Philippines the price for the SE is $6,785 and the "standard" is $6,428 both already have abs, but we only have 2 colors for now, black and grey. The low price probably is to compete with the Rebel 500, which is popular here. Thanks for the video!

Thanks for explaining the differences between the 3 versions. Was gonna dismiss the SE but hearing it has a USB-C port sounds nice, especially with how I have to charge my phone a lot when I'm using it as a GPS

She's a good presenter. I love the white version of this bike. Gives it a modern and urban look in a world of all-black n chrome

Loved the review from a female rider's perspective! Women ride motorcycles just as men do, they should be able to give a perspective's review as the men do, ladies, stay bold in giving your perspective feedback, as a rider! There are STILL too many "male chowvnist oinkers" out there who think women have no business riding a motorcycle!😵🥺💔 Stay riden' ladies! Doug🏍️🐻🦅

How much will a valve adjustment cost with the engine buried in that frame? How often must they be checked? If they were hydraulic it wouldn't matter. Why won't all motorcycle manufacturers have hydraulic self adjusting valves? Not all motorcycles are for racing.

I’d love a quick helmet suggestion. The ninja certainly goes with a sport helmet, a classic cruiser is the the more simple variety, but this bike seems to fall between. Is there a helmet type suggestion?

I'm strongly considering this bike. I currently wear an AGV K1. Been wearing that on my Honda Forza 300. I personally think it will go fine with the sportbike-cruiser hybrid anesthetics this beautiful machine has.
