Kawasaki recently sent shockwaves through the online community by posting a teaser video on their social media platform.
The video, lasting less than 10 seconds, sparked comments from Kawasaki’s social media followers, urging the manufacturer to bring back the glory days of two-stroke engines.
The post concluded with the words “We Heard You,” hinting that Kawasaki is listening to and wants to fulfill the demands of its fans.
So far, not much information has been revealed.
However, according to the Visordown website, Kawasaki previously filed a patent document published in July 2024, indicating that the manufacturer is developing an all-new two-stroke engine.
In addition to reviving this long-lost technology, Kawasaki’s new two-stroke engine will be equipped with technologies such as a fuel injection system, a turbocharger unit, and intake valves operated by a power valve.
These enhancements could significantly increase engine efficiency while retaining the advantages of two-stroke engines over four-stroke ones.
For now, Kawasaki has not decided whether this new two-stroke engine will be offered in street motorcycles or reserved for other uses.
One thing is certain: this latest development will surely delight those who have previously experienced owning 2T motorcycles, such as the Yamaha 125Z, Yamaha RX-Z, Modenas Dinamik, and Kawasaki Ninja 150RR (just to name a few popular models).
