Criticisms
The pursuit of drag-bike style resulted in some functional compromises. First, some riders[attribution needed] complained about a lack of cornering clearance. The ZL900 was long and low like a drag bike, so sporting riders who wanted ZX900 power in a cruiser had to give up riding the twisties. Additionally, pushing the bike hard overwhelmed the skinny front tire and brought the rear suspension's shortcomings to the surface. More universally, owners and magazines alike[attribution needed] bemoaned the Eliminator's lack of range due to its small fuel tank capacity. At 25-35 mpg on a 2.9 gallon tank, even conservative riders were forced to find a filling station after 100 miles or less.Length 2240 mmWidth 810 mmHeight 1075 mmWheelbase 1595 mmClearance 145 mmSeat Height 745 mmWeight 238 kgFluid Capacities Fuel, 2.9 gal

The Kawasaki Eliminator 125 is Kawasaki's entry level cruiser. Its light weight, small stature and unintimidating power delivery make it a great choice for new riders. The Motorcycle Safety Foundation uses this bike in their beginner riders courses for those very reasons. It is powered by a 125 cc, air cooled, four stroke, single cylinder engine. In 2005 the MSRP for this model was $2,649.
The Eliminator 125 has the distinction of being the smallest production motorcycle (not including scooters) currently being sold in the United States.[citation needed]
