A majority of the riders on the road today learned to ride a two-wheeler when they became an adult. However, the learning curve is greatly reduced by then. The art of riding is best learned at a young age, especially if one wants to pursue a career in riding. To help kids ride better, several manufacturers have launched mini-bikes with various engine specs.

However, real learning starts with a balance bike such as the Kawasaki Elektrode. The biggest difference between the Elektrode and most other balance bikes is that the Kawasaki is powered by an electric motor.

The electric motor in question is a 250W Brushless DC hub-mounted unit. It is completely sealed and therefore is waterproof as well. It is powered by a 36V 5.1Ah battery pack mounted inside the frame.

According to Kawasaki, it has a run time of around 2.5 hours. Charging it up also takes 2.5 hours which is decent enough. At the bottom part of the frame ahead of the battery is the charging port for the battery to be charged.

The frame itself looks unique with its slim hard-tail and rather chunky top section, thanks to the battery pack. It doesn't get any suspension even at the front end. At the front, there is a white blank space for the rider's racing number to be pasted, much like Kawasaki's off-road motorcycle range. Even the colour and graphics scheme is akin to the Kawasaki KX and KLX range of bikes.
