The Meguro S1’s looks come straight from the original Kawasaki 250 Meguro SG. One look at its black and chrome fuel tank design and the association  becomes clear. Carrying on the proud tradition of Meguro models of old, the Meguro S1’s looks have been in-style for 100 years and remain so today.

The fuel tank has a teardrop shape that contributes to the machine’s Meguro-inspired looks and features a newly designed 3D Meguro emblem that catches the eye and identifies this as a Meguro model.

The elegant, classic Meguro looks are enhanced by the original headlight housing, retro-style taillight, and large turn signals.

Black paint used on the entire chassis is paired with chrome finishing to give this model a signature Meguro look, closely resembling Meguro models of  the past.

Special care was given to the design to produce classic looks in a modern engine, with sculpted engine parts including large, rounded fins on the cylinder head.

The exhaust pipe and silencer are stainless steel and receive Kawasaki’s highest-level buffed finish. The header pipe flows elegantly from the engine, culminating in a pea-shooter-style silencer, recreating the beautiful look of early Meguro models for true classic styling.

Spoked 18” front and 17” rear wheels lend the Meguro S1 a distinguished, stylish look and feel that contributes to smooth handling as well as a big-bike appearance.

The chassis is slim and has compact proportions, enabling smooth and effortless handling. It was also designed to be lightweight (143 kg) with a low 740 mm seat height, making the Meguro heritage accessible to more riders than ever before.

Retro-style round gauges with a built-in LCD display feature a special colouring and font on the gauge face resembling that of older Meguro models, along with an iconic red “Meguro” logo printed in katakana at the bottom

The exhaust note takes its inspiration from that of the original Kawasaki 250 Meguro SG, with the actual sound of the original model used to fine-tune the Meguro S1’s exhaust note. The resulting tone is a sound with plenty of bass and ring to it, akin to the original when accelerating.

Position of the handlebar, seat and footpegs put the rider in a relaxed, upright position that facilitates control of the bike, just like classic Meguro models.

When riding, the engine offers an exciting ride feel thanks to the crankshaft’s high moment of inertia. Ample torque from the initial twist of the throttle provides a fun, engaging ride quality—especially in the low- to mid-rpm range.

The Meguro S1’s quality is evident from the machine’s details, with high-grade touches featured throughout. From the seat to the lights to the exhaust, a rich attention to detail showcases Meguro’s status as a top-of-the-line retro sports machine.

The Meguro S1 is inspired by the ride feel of Meguro models of the past, with a riding position, exhaust note, and ride feel that will be familiar to those who love classic motorcycles. It makes an excellent entry into the world of  Meguro for everyone who loves the  brand.

A vintage-style seat design with white piping, steel fenders front and rear, and spoked wheels give the Meguro S1 a look reminiscent of the original Meguro models and produce a look classic motorcycle fans will appreciate.
