Easy Riding

A relaxed upright riding position accommodates both comfortable cruising and sporty riding. A low seat height allows an easy reach to the ground while an upright handlebar position adds leverage for cornering and low-speed manoeuvring.

Reliable & Modern

Powerful braking performance featuring a firm, progressive feel is helped by modern radial-mount calipers and a radial-pump brake master cylinder. A compact and lightweight Nissin motorcycle ABS unit helps reduce wheel lock-up under certain conditions.

Comfortable & Responsive

A fully adjustable o41 mm inverted front fork and a Horizontal Back-link rear suspension offer progressive damping that delivers both ride comfort and sporty performance.

PLUSHER RIDE FEEL & TIMELESS Z STYLING

A high-grade variation of the Z900RS, the new Z900RS SE features a new Brembo brake package and a high-grade Ohlins rear shock to deliver a plusher ride feel and even greater control. The Z900RS SE recalls another of Kawasaki’s iconic old-school Z models with vivid “Yellow Ball” livery that is sure to turn heads and pluck nostalgic heartstrings.

Premium Brembo Front Brake Package

o300 mm Brembo front discs, M4.32 radial-mount monobloc calipers and pads complemented by a smaller-diameter Nissin radial-pump master cylinder and steel-braided lines deliver greater stopping power and offer a linear progression that facilitates precise control.

Ohlins S46 rear shock

Complementing the large-diameter inverted fork, Ohlins rear suspension offers both increased ride comfort and a more planted feel. Gold-coloured fork outer tubes match the Ohlins rear shock and contribute to the eye-catching styling.
