VISIÓN DE CONJUNTO

One look at the Z900 ABS reveals its striking symmetry. Both form and function are elegantly blended, from the angular cues of the front fascia to the bold lines of the body and upswept tail, with a stylish rear seat that complements the tail cowl. New brushed aluminum shrouds engraved with the “Z” logo and metallic accents add premium refinement throughout, resulting in a finished look as sharp as its Sugomi™ performance.

The triple LED headlight design, LED license plate lamp, and sharp front and rear LED turn signals are aggressively designed and unmistakable. A new, advanced LED taillight design completes the all-LED lighting package, featuring a cutting-edge, 3D appearance while delivering a high-grade, luxurious look that points to the future.

New Kawasaki Corner Management Function (KCMF) helps modulate brake force and engine power for more precise control through corners. KCMF helps facilitate a smooth transition from accelerating to braking and accelerating again, assisting in tracing your intended line through the turn.

New 5-in TFT full-color meter features 2 display types. Type 1 shows a bar-style tachometer along the top with vital vehicle information and turn-by-turn directions below if navigation is in use. Type 2 shows a hexagonal tachometer with either an aviation-style attitude indicator icon that displays lean angle in real-time or turn-by-turn directions in the center. In a Kawasaki first, the display can show turn-by-turn navigation to give you a simple indication of the direction and distance to the next turn, adding to convenience and riding enjoyment.

Bluetooth® technology within the instrument panel lets you connect to your motorcycle wirelessly. Using smartphone connectivity (via RIDEOLOGY THE APP MOTORCYCLE*) several instrument functions can be accessed allowing you to view vehicle info, riding log, phone notifications, tuning of general settings, Kawasaki Riding Management, and turn-by-turn navigation.

The Z900 ABS is equipped with new smartphone connectivity with available voice command and turn-by-turn navigation using RIDEOLOGY THE APP MOTORCYCLE*. Experience even more freedom to focus on the ride while being totally connected.

Kawasaki TRaction Control (KTRC) system provides both enhanced sport riding performance and the confidence to negotiate low-traction surfaces. Three rider-selectable modes offer progressively greater levels of intrusion to suit the riding situation and your preference:
- Mode 1 provides the least amount of assistance with sport riding in mind.
- Mode 2 offers earlier assistance and features balanced sport riding support.
- Mode 3 offers the most assistance, allowing you to navigate challenging road conditions with confidence.

A choice between Full Power or Low Power modes allows you to set power delivery to suit preference and conditions. Low Power mode limits output to approximately 75% of Full Power for enhanced manageability.

Integrated riding modes link KTRC settings and Power Modes, allowing you to easily set traction control and power delivery to suit your given riding situation and optimize your riding experience. Select between Sport, Road, Rain, or Manual to tailor the ride to conditions and preferences. The riding mode can be changed while riding, using the buttons located on the left handle.

Allowing you to take even greater advantage of the exhilarating engine character, the dual-direction Kawasaki Quick Shifter (KQS) enables clutchless upshifts and downshifts for seamless acceleration and easy deceleration. KQS functions from as low as 1,500 rpm, making shifts at slower riding speeds smooth and comfortable, which is especially beneficial when riding in town. Transmission gear ratios are optimized to work in tune with KQS for incredibly smooth function.

Updated suspension settings front and rear help create a more forward-leaning stance. A more planted feel from the front end translates to more composed, nimble feeling through corners, even across bumps and gaps. This noticeably lightweight handling brings even more enjoyment to sport riding.

The Z900 ABS chassis is lightweight, narrow, and strong—designed to deliver a visceral and intuitive sport-riding experience. Command the Z900 ABS with confidence as it responds to your input with precise and responsive handling. With new Dunlop Sportmax Q5A tires, handling is boosted with optimal grip to the road.

An Assist & Slipper Clutch provides a light feel at the lever, and a back-torque limiting function that helps prevent rear-wheel hop during more aggressive downshifts.

New dual radial-mounted opposed 4-piston front brake calipers and 300mm front brake discs contribute to powerful braking, improved feel at the lever, and lighter pull for precise control during sport riding. In the rear, a new 250mm brake disc and updated brake pad material further enhance braking performance.

A new fat-type aluminum handlebar offers improved rigidity, featuring a wide grip that places your shoulders in “attack position” and hands at-the-ready for a posture that stays in command, and in control.

The new seat is flatter to allow you to shift around and take a variety of riding positions for better rider-active control during sport riding. Thicker urethane in its rear portion provides increased riding comfort. The seat features rounder edges on the sides for a more comfortable reach to the ground, while its new shape also allows you to easily shift your weight during sport riding.

Both clutch and brake levers are 5-way adjustable and accommodate a variety of hand sizes for optimal control.

Constructed from high-tensile steel, the strong trellis frame contributes to lightweight and responsive handling. Along with highly capable suspension settings, the horizontal back-link rear suspension positions the shock unit and linkage above the lightweight aluminum swingarm to deliver sporty performance, comfort, and real-time feedback to you.

The infectious intake sound evokes the senses with every twist of the throttle. With a design based on acoustic tests, the airbox is shaped to deliver an intake howl that is unmistakably Z.

Powerful and precise braking performance comes from an exceptional front brake package upgrade, featuring Brembo M4.32 radial-mount monobloc calipers and pads, 300mm Brembo brake discs, steel braided brake lines, and a Nissin radial-pump master cylinder.

The Z900 SE ABS features a new high-quality 2-tone urethane seat with a real-leather-look. Also, in a Kawasaki first—hand-stitched-style sewing line along the sides of the seat offer an ultra-premium appearance that stands to be envied.

A new USB-C outlet mounted inside the front cowl offers a convenient and discreet power source for personal electronics.
