Ferrari Move Over, Kawasaki’s in Town
Hold onto your helmets, motorcycle enthusiasts! Kawasaki has taken the Z900RS and its high-flying sibling, the Z900RS SE, and cranked up the excitement levels to 11. With a horde of updates that make your heart race faster than the bikes themselves, both roadsters are set to redefine power and pleasure.
Power? Check. Torque? Double Check!
Now, you might think the 948cc inline-four engine sounded good last year, but that was just the starter course. 114bhp and 72lb.ft of torque serve as the main course this season. With new throttle valves, who needs a personal trainer when you have that kind of horsepower under the seat? And who can ignore the bi-directional quickshifter that promises seamless upshifts and downshifts without breaking a sweat—or a gear?
Impressive Rider Aids, Because Safety is Sexy
But wait, it gets better. Both bikes boast an updated suite of rider aids courtesy of that nifty six-axis IMU, ensuring that lean-sensitive ABS and traction control come into play when you take those curves like a pro—or at least try to! And let’s not forget the newly designed megaphone-style silencer, which not only looks snazzy but sounds smoother than your favorite jazz tune. While the standard model has reliable Kawasaki-badged Tokico brakes, the SE raises the bar with Brembo stoppers and all the bells and whistles.
There you have it! With adjustable suspension options and a drop-in seat for the shorter-legged riders, Kawasaki has certainly catered to all sizes of thrill-seekers. So, gear up and get ready to dominate the asphalt!
