Lighting Up the Streets: KAWASAKI D-TRACKER250 Custom

Webike's Opinion

Here is a "KAWASAKI D-TRACKER250" custom by Webike community user "Kushidango". The owner stumbled upon this limited-edition model brand new while searching for a bike with a relaxed riding position and decided to bring it home. Since then, he's been customizing it little by little, much like tending to a bonsai tree—carefully and patiently. Now, 25 years have passed since he bought it in 2000, but thanks to consistent maintenance, the bike remains as tough as ever and has never had any major issues.

Originally, the bike’s spoked wheels were adorned with MDF Rim Tapes that matched the body color. However, the owner recently fulfilled a long-held dream of upgrading to MARCHESINI wheels, resulting in sharper, more responsive handling. The gold wheels complement the bike’s vibrant exterior, blending seamlessly with the AMR Graphic Decals on the cowl to create a colorful and lively presence. The owner felt the stock fender was too flimsy, so he replaced it with an ACERBIS Supermoto EVO Front Fender, whose lower section features a stylish lightning-inspired cutout, adding a touch of flair. Thanks to its two-piece construction and large front vent, the owner expects it to channel air efficiently toward the radiator for improved cooling. The Kawasaki KX Rear Fender also aligns perfectly with it, enhancing the bike’s overall sense of unity.

The braking system has been upgraded smoothly and effectively, leaving no room for compromise. The stock setup lacked confidence, so the owner opted for a BERINGER Front Brake Master Cylinder, a favorite among fellow riders for its exceptional brake feel. Paired with a Moto-Master Caliper and BRAKING Brake Discs, the stopping power has reached an almost "scary" level of effectiveness, he says. For better visibility at the rear, the bike is now equipped with ACTIVE LED License Plate Side Turn Signals and a ZETA LED Line Tail Light. As for the exhaust, a polished KX Exhaust is paired with an FMF Megabomb Rocket Shorty, along with a dedicated FMF Carbon Heat Guard to help reduce heat transfer to the rider’s pants, ensuring a more comfortable ride.
