The Kawasaki Z1100 series is coming to Japan! Preparations for domestic introduction are underway.

Kawasaki Z1100/Z1100 SE

Kawasaki Motors Japan has announced that it is currently preparing to introduce the new models “Z1100” and “Z1100 SE” that were announced overseas on September 26, 2025 (Japan time) into Japan.

The Z1100 series is a noteworthy new model positioned as the new flagship model of Kawasaki’s Z series of naked bikes. Immediately after its announcement overseas, it has been attracting growing interest from Kawasaki fans and motorcycle enthusiasts in Japan.

Detailed information such as the release date, price, and specifications will be announced once they have been decided. This will be big news that Kawasaki fans have been waiting for.

Z1100 SE to be exhibited in Japan for the first time at Japan Mobility Show 2025

Kawasaki Motors has announced that it will exhibit at the Japan Mobility Show 2025, which will be held at Tokyo Big Sight (Ariake, Koto Ward) from Thursday, October 30th to Sunday, November 9th, 2025. Press days will be held from October 29th to 30th.

The Z1100 SE, the top grade of the Z1100 series, will be on display at this motor show, and this will be the first opportunity to see the Z1100 SE in person in Japan.

Details of the exhibits at the motor show will be announced at a later date

We are instructed to wait a little longer for details on the exhibit contents. In addition to the actual Z1100 SE display, there is a high possibility that attractive content typical of Kawasaki will be prepared.

There will be a period during the motor show when the general public is also allowed to enter, so this will be a rare opportunity to see the Z1100 SE up close. This is an event that even those who are not Kawasaki fans should pay attention to.

Expectations are rising for the domestic launch of the Z1100 series

By offering two models, the Z1100 and the Z1100 SE, it is expected that a system will be put in place to meet the needs of a wide range of users. The structure of the standard Z1100 and the more fully equipped Z1100 SE is a strategy that is also adopted for other Kawasaki models.

The timing of its domestic introduction has not been made clear, but it is expected to be released relatively soon as it has been decided to exhibit it at the Japan Mobility Show 2025. Official announcements regarding pricing and equipment details are awaited.

New developments in the Kawasaki Z series

The arrival of the Z1100 series will further enrich Kawasaki’s Z series lineup, and it is expected that Kawasaki’s presence in the naked bike market will increase even more.
