Kawasaki has officially unveiled the 2027 Z250. The 248cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin makes 35 PS at 12,500 rpm and 22 Nm at 10,500 rpm, with a 164 kg wet weight, 795 mm seat height, and 14-liter fuel tank carried over from the outgoing model. As one of the few remaining 250cc twins alongside Yamaha's MT-25, it arrives with refreshed colors for the new model year.

Look at the spec sheet — 248cc parallel twin, 35 PS at 12,500 rpm, 22 Nm at 10,500 rpm — all carried straight over from the last generation. Compared with the outgoing bike, the only thing that's changed is the paint, but that high-revving twin feel doesn't fade just because the colors did. This is the good part.

I just love the exhaust note on this twin.

795mm seat height is a bit tall though.

Just glad the parallel-twin survives at all.

Still can't decide vs the MT-25.

Just a color update? Kind of a letdown.

Yeah, 35PS/22Nm is identical to before.
