Classical Styling with Distinctive Character

The "Megro" brand, born nearly a century ago in 1924, is making a comeback. The Megro K3 will be launched in early 2021 by Kawasaki, which inherits the legacy of Megro, Japan's first motorcycle brand.

The body features a glossy black finish with chrome accents, embodying a classical design with distinctive character throughout. An original emblem, hand-painted by artisans after being pressed from aluminum, serves as a focal point, while the fuel tank boasts a "megane" (spectacle) paint finish and Highly Durable Paint, demanding advanced painting techniques.

Mounting the seat reveals dual analog meters featuring the "Megro" logo. The upright-style handlebars are finished in black, and an assist & slipper clutch is provided, contributing to both light operation and maneuverability.

The engine is a 773cc air-cooled vertical twin with a 360-degree crankshaft, highlighted by bevel gears. The exhaust system is designed to deliver a powerful sound and palpable vibrations.
