Kawasaki Z900 SE… 1,650,000 yen (including 10% consumption tax)

Inspiring performance and sophisticated design

The Z900 SE is a model that mounts a 948cm3 in-line 4-cylinder engine in a lightweight frame, and is designed to deliver exciting power and handling, as well as smooth response without compromise. Inheriting Kawasaki’s traditional packaging, it achieves a high level of balance between power and handling.

The exterior adopts the sophisticated new “Sugomi” design. The sharp, edgy styling is effectively combined with metal parts to create an impression of the sharp performance hidden within. It inherits the Z series’ distinctive features of “low stance,” “low-positioned head,” and “raised tail,” resulting in a cutting-edge body shape and dynamic crouching form.

High-grade suspension and latest electronic control

To achieve both luxury and performance, the Z900 SE is equipped with Brembo brakes and an Ohlins rear suspension.Furthermore, Dunlop Sportmax Q5A tires are used on both the front and rear, which contribute to improved cornering performance, providing agile handling in all situations, from street riding to mountain passes and touring.

The engine is now equipped with an electronically controlled throttle valve and IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit), which not only achieves sharp throttle response but also makes it possible to equip the bike with advanced riding support technologies such as KQS (Kawasaki Quick Shifter) and electric cruise control.

Smart Features and Navigation

The Z900 SE is packed with new features to enhance rider convenience. It features a 5-inch full-digital TFT color instrument panel, which combines advanced technology with a high-quality feel. It also features Kawasaki’s first turn-by-turn navigation system, which is linked to the smartphone app “RIDEOLOGY THE APP MOTORCYCLE.” The instrument panel concisely displays the direction and distance of intersections and forks, improving both touring performance and convenience.

It can also be operated using voice commands from a smartphone app, allowing you to safely use various functions while riding.
