- Black engine parts : Contrast and compare. The W800 Special Edition shines thanks to an air-cooled black vertical twin engine and clever highlights. Iconic bevel-gear-driven cam adds classic beauty to the engine.
- Emblem on tank : The look of love. Every time you look down you can see the unique Kawasaki Special Edition logo.
- Matt black exhaust : Talk softly, but speak strong. Cool matt black exhausts sound good and add subtle streetwise character.
