Matt black chassis with a 150cc blackout engine looks more like a big boy captured in a cage whereas when you see from the side the vinyl’s on the tank and fender sections make it average attractive if you compare it with its 250 version whose vinyl is way more attractive when you see it in a black color scheme.

If you come to the radiating engine, it is an air-cooled engine so you have no water compartment which can be visible from the side front, but space is properly utilized by a built-in Kawasaki bag for your glasses and accessories.

The D tracker 150 exhaust is partially covered at the upper back of the motorcycle to reduce heat effect when riding and looks prettier but looks smaller than the 250 version D tracker.

Tank and the seats are aligned in a position so the driver can shift its weight ratio when utilizing the motorcycle on off-road terrains which makes D Tracker 150 more agile.

When you look at the D tracker from the back you see a well-heightened beast with a thick tire on the back with midsize mudguards on them and on the top of the mudguard, you see the tail lamp that is diamond-boxy in look and has a light reflector under the number plate compartment which makes it look like old school trail motorcycles.

The back with the prominent and attractive mono-shock makes it look big and buffy. The only thing that the D TRACKER 150 lacks is the speedometer with the analog gauge and startup and neutral light.

Kawasaki D Tracker 150 Features

The fuel injection system of tracker 150 uses an ultra-fine atomizing carburetor having 5 holes of fuel injection at the same time to provide outstanding efficiency. The effect for the 150cc class is a rather smooth character of the engine, especially in the rpm range most used for day-to-day riding.

The engine revs rapidly and easily from the middle-range onwards. In addition, fuel injection leads to lower emissions, smoother start-ups, and better fuel economy even at higher RPMs.

The bore size is 144 cm³ with having two valves running at a time to make it more agile and friendly to use. The 150cc uses the SOHC valve system.

The seat design makes it an easier approach for riders to hit the ground when they stop the motorcycle as it is well heightened. A modified handlebar is straighter and changes the position of the hand up and in.

The more comfortable posture makes riding and handling the bike smoother. For a slim riding position suitable for both on and off-road riding, Footpads are mounted along the centerline of the bike. It is simpler to adjust the seating angle with a new seat shape.

A compact, lightweight kit produces the tracker’s box- and tubular-section high-tensile steel perimeter structure. The 30-degree caster and short wheelbase lead to rapid handling while maintaining straight-line stability due to the high rigidity of the chassis.

The new lightweight, extremely stable swing arm in the D-section of aluminum leads to a reduction in unsprung weight. The new KX racing-type chain adjusters allow for accurate chain slack adjustment, helping to minimize the loss of power transfer from the drivetrain.

When a rider abruptly opens the throttle, the wide diameter throttles, the uncontrolled torque response is anything, but soft, and sometimes more than the rider can bear.

The technology of dual throttle valves was developed to tame engine reaction while leading to results. Usually, throttle bodies only have one throttle valve per cylinder on fuel-injected versions.

There are two throttle valves per cylinder on models with dual throttle valves: in addition to the main valves, which are physically attached to the throttle grip and operated by the rider, the second pair of valves, opened and closed by the ECU, accurately controls the airflow intake to ensure a normal, linear reaction.

With the air going through the throttle bodies becoming cleaner, there is better combustion efficiency and increased power. They are used on many Kawasaki models, much as other Kawasaki engine control technologies.
