The Kawasaki KZ200 is a motorcycle that was developed largely for the South East Asian market, with a particular focus on Indonesia. For a while back in the 1970s, the Indonesians had a law limiting motorcycle engine sizes to a maximum of 200cc and much of the region still tends to favour engine capacities in this general range.
Kawasaki never really intended the KZ200 to be a particularly exciting bike, the brochure made heavy emphasis about it being an ideal “first motorcycle” due to its light kerb weight of 278 lbs and its manageable power output of 18 hp.
