Kawasaki Z250 SL 2016

For all those riders who don’t want to be dealing with a 200kg, top-heavy supposedly novice-friendly machine, Kawasaki have built a proper little bike, that’s big on stability, handling and has a great, big gutsy heart. All at an affordable price. It’s punchier than the Z300 down low, packs better build quality than its Honda and KTM rivals, handles beautifully and feels unbreakable. For smaller riders and those not fixated on peak power, it simply can’t be beaten.

SL stands for ‘Super Lightweight’ and, at just 147kg ready to ride, it’s a title that’s well deserved. To put it into context, Kawasaki’s other A2-licence-friendly naked, the Z300 weighs 20kg more, and the SL’s lack of mass is immediately noticeable. Just pushing it out of the garage is as simple as handling a mountain bike.

Sharp yet super stable, around town the Z250SL’s nicely pitched wide bars give you the perfect leverage to dart in and out of traffic. Being so light you can just use your bodyweight to lean into corners and pull the bike tighter around turns, relying on the feeling of security you get from the high pegs and having your knees locked into the recesses either side of the tank. There’s no slack or wallow in the chassis, it’s a totally direct riding experience, not what you’d expect from a budget commuter. The 37mm conventional fork and preload-adjustable shock are set fairly firm and can patter over bumps when ridden hard, but that’s the surprising beauty of the little ZSL – you can actually ride it bloody hard.

Bringing things to a stop is a single disc up front teamed up with a single-piston caliper. The stopping power is ample and Kawasaki have managed to engineer a decent amount of feel in there too. Teamed with the firm suspension, braking is engaging enough to feel the front tyre digging in and even lets you get away with trail braking into bends without making the bike want to stand up. But amazingly, the stoppers are nowhere near sharp enough to fluster less experienced riders.

This lovely lightweight bike is ideal for a novice easy to ride and insure, it has some light damageas shown in the pictures all cosmetic though.
