New Performance Oils Line from Kawasaki

The North American division of Kawasaki recently announced the launch of a new line of powersport oils. According to the manufacturer, the new Kawasaki Performance Oils line includes full-synthetic, semi-synthetic and mineral based formulations in multiple grades of motorcycle oils, plus new ATV/UTV and PWC formulations.

Moreover, Kawasaki makes it clear that it’s not a simple re-branding of the old product, but an entirely new lineup of super quality modern powersport engine oils.

The manufacturer reportedly made significant improvements across the entire line. The results include mineral based formulations which deliver a 20 percent reduction in phosphorous and sulfur content, 45 percent lower volatility, 5 percent higher film thickness, between 15 – 30 percent better anti-wear characteristics and up to a 15 percent improvement in anti-oxidancy, depending on type.

In addition to the advanced mineral based formulations, the new Kawasaki Performance Oils lineup also includes the latest semi and full-synthetic performance engine lubricants based on modern polyalphaolefins and esters.

“These new oils cover gaps in the previous lineup and will help Kawasaki dealers to capitalize on the strong demand for modern synthetic oil formulations, while more effectively serving the needs of their powersports customers,” Jim Williams, KMC’s director of corporate sales, said in a release.

In conjunction with the launch of these new oils, Kawasaki is also releasing a new packaging, “Performance Made Perfect” marketing and dealer displays all designed to emphasize the high-performance attributes of Kawasaki Performance Oils line.
