Frequently asked
- What is the seat height of the Kawasaki Eliminator?
- The Kawasaki Eliminator has a published unladen seat height of 28.9 inches (74 cm). Under your weight the suspension sags roughly 1.2 inch, so the effective height you reach is a little lower.
- Can short riders flat-foot the Kawasaki Eliminator?
- You can plant both feet flat on the Kawasaki Eliminator from roughly a 26.8-inch inseam, and get the balls of both feet down from about 25.8 inches (in riding boots). Below that you're on tiptoes.
- Can the Kawasaki Eliminator be lowered?
- Yes. Off-the-shelf lowering options exist for the Kawasaki Eliminator — lowering links, a lower seat, or a suspension lowering kit can typically recover around an inch and a half, often enough to move a tiptoe fit to balls-of-the-feet.
