Kawasaki Z900 Overview

With a 948cc four-cylinder engine producing 123.6bhp, the Z900 is for riders seeking a powerful naked bike for weekend rides and fast-road use, rather than a basic commuter. Four riding modes, traction control, a quickshifter and switchable ABS make for a substantial electronics package. The suspension is adjustable at both ends, and the TFT display includes Bluetooth and turn-by-turn navigation. Its claimed mileage is 21kmpl; real-world economy is not provided.

The 830mm seat is lower than the KTM 450 SX-F’s 958mm, but the Z900’s 212kg kerb weight is much higher than that rival’s 107kg. It makes almost twice the KTM’s listed power and is priced below it. The Z900 therefore brings a major power advantage in this comparison, with more weight to manage. A windscreen and USB charging port are absent, which may matter for touring or daily use.

  • The 123.6bhp four-cylinder engine gives the Z900 substantial power on paper.
  • Sport, Road, Rain and Rider modes offer four selectable riding settings.
  • A 5-inch TFT provides Bluetooth, call and SMS alerts, and turn-by-turn navigation.
  • Adjustable front and rear suspension lets riders alter preload and rebound damping.
  • Front and rear disc brakes are paired with switchable ABS.

What we like

  • Strong listed power from its 948cc four-cylinder engine.
  • Traction control, a quickshifter and four riding modes are included.
  • Lower seat than the listed KTM 450 SX-F.
  • Bluetooth connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation are built in.

What could be better

  • The 212kg kerb weight is much higher than the listed KTM 450 SX-F’s 107kg.
  • No windscreen is listed.
  • There is no USB charging port.

Best for: Buy the Z900 if you want a high-powered naked with rider aids and connectivity, and can accept its weight and claimed 21kmpl mileage.
