The 2026 Kawasaki W800 is set to be released on November 1, 2025 to celebrate nearly six decades of the “W” series. This model is known for its classic design, vertical twin engine, and the sound that riders have loved since 1966.
The 773cc air-cooled vertical twin engine with 360-degree crankshaft remains, providing smooth operation and a rich sound. The combination of 19-inch front and 18-inch rear wire-spoke wheels provides retro style but is still comfortable for modern riders.
For 2026, the W800 has two new colors: Pearl Crystal White and Metallic Deep Blue. Also included are new features such as assist & slipper clutch, heated grips, and ABS, for safer and smoother riding.
Kawasaki also includes details like chrome fenders, round headlamp, and teardrop fuel tank to maintain the authentic retro look. So the W800 is not just about the ride, but also about owner pride and satisfaction.
Philippines pricing is yet to be announced, but is expected to be between ₱500,000 to ₱600,000 depending on variant and color choice.
