At Holzhauer Pro Motorsports, we're thrilled to introduce these exceptional machines that promise to elevate your riding adventures to new heights. Here's everything you need to know about these groundbreaking models.

Kawasaki Ridge: The Gateway to Adventure

The Kawasaki Ridge is designed as a versatile adventure motorcycle that caters to both seasoned and novice riders. It features a robust engine that balances power and fuel efficiency, ensuring that riders enjoy long stretches of road and trail with confidence. The Ridge is equipped with advanced electronics, including selectable ride modes, traction control, and ABS, providing a tailored riding experience that adapts to various terrains and conditions.

Specifications highlight:

  • Engine: Optimized for low to mid-range torque, making it perfect for off-road trails and urban commuting alike.
  • Suspension: Adjustable settings to accommodate varying loads and terrain types.
  • Comfort: Ergonomically designed for long-distance comfort, with a focus on rider and passenger experience.

Kawasaki Ridge XR: The Ultimate Adventure Companion

Taking the foundations of the Ridge to the next level, the Ridge XR stands as the pinnacle of Kawasaki's adventure lineup. It boasts a more powerful engine, enhanced suspension systems, and cutting-edge technology designed for the most demanding off-road challenges. The Ridge XR is for the adventurer who demands the best in performance, reliability, and comfort over any terrain.

Specifications highlight:
