Overview

The 2010 Kawasaki BJ 250 ESTRELLA is a naked motorcycle with a 249 cm³, air-cooled, four-stroke single-cylinder engine producing 17 hp (13 kW). It weighs 155 kg.

A 734 mm seat height gives the bike a low perch that can make it easier to put a foot down at stops. The 170 mm ground clearance provides room over uneven surfaces, while its 12.9 L fuel tank gives you fuel capacity for rides between stops. Fuel injection supplies the engine, and the chain final drive needs periodic cleaning and adjustment.

Pros and cons

Advantages

  • Low seat

    The 734 mm seat height makes stopping and putting a foot down easier for many riders.

  • Useful ground clearance

    With 170 mm of ground clearance, the bike has room to clear uneven pavement.

  • Fuel injection

    Fuel injection meters fuel to the engine without a carburetor.

Things to consider

  • Chain maintenance

    The chain final drive needs regular cleaning and adjustment.

  • Rear drum brake

    The 160 mm rear drum brake does not offer the same braking response as a disc brake.

  • Modest power

    The 17 hp output limits how much acceleration the single-cylinder engine can provide.
