After showcasing four new and updated models at the Intermot show 2016, Kawasaki has now revealed official stock images of its two new models – The Z900 and Z650. The new styling brings the Sugomi styling of the naked Z class.
Kawasaki will be showcasing the Z650 and Z900 at the EICMA show in Milan next month. These two models are intended to replace the ER-6n and the Z800 after their launch.
Powered by a new downsized 948cc inline-four cylinder engine based on the Z1000 engine, Z900 produces 126bhp of max power. It also gets assisted slipper clutch and ABS as standard, which is also available in the Z650.
Weighing at 210.5 kg the Z900 gets inverted forks up-font and mono-shock at the rear, both with rebound damping and pre-load adjustability and new swingarm.
The Z900 is available in Pearl Mystic Gray / Metallic Flat Spark Black, Candy Lime Green / Metallic Spark Black, Metallic Flat Spark Black / Metallic Spark Black and Candy Plasma Blue / Metallic Graphite Gray (Special Edition).
Kawasaki Z650 is powered by a parallel-twin engine which has been reworked to offer smoother throttle response, better low-mid range torque and improved fuel economy. Z650 also gets the same assist and slipper clutch as the Z900.
The Z650 uses the Bosch 9.1M ABS unit instead of the Nissin unit, which is available on the Z900.
Along with the Z900, Kawasaki Z650 will also be present at the EICMA 2016.
