====== Kawasaki D-Tracker ====== This article is related to [[Kawasaki]] ===== Kawasaki D-Tracker 250 ===== {{:kawasaki_d-tracker_250.jpg?300 |Kawasaki D-Tracker 250}} ==== Engine ==== The Kawasaki D-Tracker is powered by a compact design, lightweight and high revving, with a broad torque curve four-stroke, Liquid-Cooled, DOHC, four-valve single cylinder, 249 cc engine. The flat-top lightweight piston, piston pin and connecting rod enable higher revs for maximum power and the pentroof combustion chamber all together deliver an high 11:1 compression ratio. Kawasaki uses a aluminum cylinder which features electrofusion coating, this allows a tight piston-cylinder clearance for greater horsepower and offers increased engine life thanks to better heat transfer and lubrication retention properties. The four-valve cylinder head provides maximum valve area for optimum flow to boost low end torque while providing improved high-rpm breathing efficiency for more power A unique gear-driven engine balancer provides smooth power delivery from idle to engine redline. Kawasaki uses a single 34mm [[Keihin]] fuel injection system, which utilities an ultra-fine atomizing 10-hole injector. === Engine Cooling === The dual high-capacity, vertical-flow Denso radiators provide reliable and efficient engine [[cooling]], the radiators feature tightly packed cores and a fin design for excellent heat dispersion. ==== Performance ==== The maximum engine output of the Kawasaki D-Tracker 250 is 16 kW (22 PS) @ 7,500rpm, with a maximum torque of 20.5 N·m (2.1 kgf·m) @ 7,000rpm
