Kawasaki Barako Review in the Philippines

Kawasaki Barako Specs and Performance

The Kawasaki Barako was last updated in 2014, when Kawasaki imbued its popular commuter motor with 15 percent more power while achieving 13 percent better fuel efficiency. Equipped with a commanding 176.6 cc, 4-stroke engine that’s Euro-II compliant and made of heavy-duty high-tensile steel, the Barako is designed to withstand heavy and continual use.

Performance-wise, the Barako has a power output of 13.4 hp and 13.7 Nm of torque, thanks to its engine being paired with a 4-speed constant mesh return shift transmission and a wet multi-disc clutch. Add a telescopic fork front suspension and a long dual seat to the equation, and you get a motorcycle that can take on any bump or weather with you.
