ENGINE
Powerful 948 cc liquid-cooled, 4-stroke In-line Four engine has a quick-revving character and a strong mid-range hit that pulls strongly to the redline. Adding to rider exhilaration, a distinct intake note encourages the rider to twist the throttle. Silky smooth power delivery facilitates control while contributing to rider comfort and confidence. Precise control from the new electronic throttle valves contribute to smooth, linear acceleration, giving riders added confidence and enjoyment when cornering.

HANDLING
Key to the Z900's agile handling is a chassis composed of lightweight components, including its trellis frame. Revised suspension settings for the new model allow riders to enjoy sport riding with more confidence. Featuring a new tyre compound, Dunlop Sportmax Q5A tyres deliver a strong, planted feel when cornering for enjoyable sport riding.

BRAKES
FRONT SUSPENSION
REAR SUSPENSION
The Horizontal Back-link rear suspension with adjustable spring preload and stepless rebound damping contributes to a high level of handling response, ride comfort and rear wheel traction.
REFINED SUGOMI STYLING
While the Z900's aggressive Z Supernaked styling has been refined, the key sugomi design elements that give it its highly distinct silhouette—a crouching stance, low-positioned head and upswept tail—have been maintained. The sharp and edgy new design, which is centred around the engine, offers unrivalled impact that catches and holds the attention of all who view it. Elegant, close-fitting bodywork is complemented by metal styling accents, contributing a high-quality impression. From the intense look of the more aggressive front end to the futuristic impression of the advanced new taillight design, the Z900's condensed appearance conveys a light, agile image that reflects its sporty performance.

FRONT COWL
Sharper, more compact headlights, which were designed to be an integral part of the Z's sugomi styling, are a major contributor to the Z900's sharper-looking new front end. They enable a sleeker front cowl, creating a compact, aggressive looking view from the front, sure to resonate with fans of the Supernaked Z. Colour shown not available in Australia
TAIL
The advanced LED taillight features light-guiding technology to achieve a futuristic design with a cutting-edge, 3D appearance that highlights the Z900's sharp, edgy styling while contributing to a high-grade look.

METAL ACCENTS
Brushed aluminium shrouds engraved with a "Z" logo provide an eye-catching accent on either side of the machine. Matte silver-plating around the key cylinder provides high-grade accents where riders can see them, enhancing pride of ownership. At the rear of the seat, an aluminium ornament with the Kawasaki logo embossed adds a touch of style.

SEAT
Slim at the front and wide at the rear, the sporty front seat's shape has been updated with thicker urethane in its rear portion offering increased riding comfort. The corners on the left and right sides are rounded off to offer more comfort to the legs when seated and to facilitate reaching the ground. In addition to allowing the rider to shift around and take a variety of riding positions when cruising, the seat's flatter new shape also enables the rider to more easily shift their weight during sport riding.

ELECTRONIC RIDING SUPPORT TECHNOLOGY
Kawasaki's highly sophisticated electronic management systems offer rider support to allow riders to more fully experience how the Z900 is fun and rewarding to control. IMU feedback adds greater precision to the ABS.

KCMF (KAWASAKI CORNERING MANAGEMENT FUNCTION)
KTRC
Kawasaki's advanced traction control system provides both enhanced sport riding performance and the confidence to negotiate low-traction surfaces with confidence. Mode 1, the least intrusive, helps to manage traction during cornering. Designed with sport riding in mind, it facilitates acceleration out of corners by maximising forward drive from the rear wheel. Mode 2 offers earlier intervention and features a balance of sport riding support and enhanced rider confidence. Mode 3 features the greatest intervention, allowing riders to negotiate both short, challenging patches and extended stretches of low-traction conditions with confidence.
ENHANCED ABS
Feedback from the IMU enables an additional function: corner braking management. In addition to front and rear wheel speed sensors (standard for any ABS system), the enhanced ABS uses information from the IMU to calculate the motorcycle's lean angle. Should riders use the brakes beyond the entrance to a turn (i.e. trail braking), increase brake force mid-corner (e.g. to avoid an obstacle), or encounter a sudden change in surface traction (e.g. fallen leaves, loose sand or a wet patch), brake force is modulated to suppress erratic vehicle behaviour and slippage. This assists riders in holding their intended line through the corner instead of running wide, or in coming to a controlled stop.

MODES
All-inclusive modes that link KTRC (3 modes, plus OFF) and Power Mode (available in Full or Low) allow riders to easily set traction control and power delivery to suit a given riding situation. Riders can choose from three settings (Sport, Road, Rain) or a manual setting (Rider). In the manual Rider mode, each of the systems can be set independently.
KQS (KAWASAKI QUICK SHIFTER)
Allowing riders to take even greater advantage of the Z900's exhilarating engine character, Kawasaki's latest quick shifter enables clutchless upshifts and downshifts for seamless acceleration and easy deceleration.

FULLY-LOADED SUPERNAKED

INSTRUMENTATION
A 5" all-digital TFT colour instrumentation gives the cockpit a high-tech, high-grade appearance. Two display types allow a choice of simple vehicle information or an aviation-style attitude indicator-inspired lean angle indicator (for an added bit of fun while riding). Both display types accommodate turn-by-turn navigation direction.
ELECTRONIC CRUISE CONTROL
SMARTPHONE CONNECTIVITY
Using the smartphone application "RIDEOLOGY THE APP," a number of instrument functions can be accessed wirelessly, contributing to an enhanced motorcycling experience. The new version of the smartphone app now offers the ability for riders to control the app with voice commands*, which allows them adjust motorcycle settings, set GPS routes and more orally.
When paired with RIDEOLOGY THE APP MOTORCYCLE, turn-by-turn navigation can be displayed on the instrument panel.
*RIDEOLOGY THE APP is not intended for use during vehicle operation. Only use RIDEOLOGY THE APP when the vehicle is not being operated and it is safe to do so. Voice Command and Navigation functions will be available only to users who have a licence. Although generally a paid service, a one-year free licence will be granted to purchasers of certain models. Licences will be sold for a fee after the second year, or to users who do not possess a free licence at the time of vehicle purchase.
