Kawasaki Z900 Updates

Sunday, 01 September 2024 11:27 PM India Kawasaki Motor has launched the 2024 Kawasaki Z900 in new color options, including Metallic Matte Dark Gray/Metallic Flat Spark Black and Candy Persimmon Red/Ebony, priced at Rs. 8.43 lakh and Rs. 8.63 lakh respectively. The Z900 SE ABS version is available in Metallic Spark Black/Metallic Matte Graphenesteel Gray/Candy Lime Green for Rs. 9.63 lakh. The bike features a 948cc liquid-cooled inline-four engine, Kawasaki TRaction Control (KTRC), and integrated riding modes.

Thursday, 15 August 2024 10:09 AM The Kawasaki Z900 has not seen significant updates in a while, and there is speculation that Kawasaki might soon introduce new updates to the model, including potential weight reduction and more aggressive design elements. This could involve a lighter chassis, new aluminum sub-frame, and enhanced electronics like a bi-directional quickshifter and cornering ABS.

Monday, 27 December 2021 11:39 AM For the 2022 model year, Kawasaki introduced a new Candy Lime Green Type 3 color for the Z900 in India, in addition to the existing Metallic Spark Black shade. This move is aimed at attracting more buyers with fresh color options. The price remained the same at Rs. 8.50 lakh (ex-showroom).

Wednesday, 09 September 2020 06:02 PM The 2021 Kawasaki Z900 BS6 was launched in India, priced between Rs. 8.50 lakh and Rs. 9 lakh (ex-showroom). This update included new riding modes, electronic aids, and compliance with BS6 emission norms without any drop in power or torque.

Monday, 15 October 2018 03:47 PM India Kawasaki Motor introduced the 2019 Kawasaki Z900 with cosmetic changes, including new graphics, but retained the same mechanical specifications. The bike was available in three color options and priced at Rs. 7.68 lakh (ex-showroom). I think these minor updates kept the bike fresh without altering its core appeal.

Monday, 02 October 2017 11:33 PM Kawasaki launched the Z900 in a brand new pure Metallic Spark Black color in India, with less than 30 units available initially to gauge customer response. This limited edition color was part of their strategy to keep the model appealing.

Friday, 15 September 2017 06:01 PM The Kawasaki Z900 was also released in an A2 licence compliant variant in Europe, where the power was restricted to 46 bhp to meet A2 licence requirements. This move was to make the bike more accessible to younger riders. I believe this was a smart move to expand the bikes market.

Friday, 11 August 2017 01:07 PM Kawasaki introduced the Z900 with a new Candy Red color option in Europe, which was expected to be available in India by 2018. This color addition was part of their ongoing effort to keep the model visually appealing.

Saturday, 08 July 2017 07:03 AM The base variant of the Kawasaki Z900 was launched in India at Rs. 7.68 lakh (ex-showroom), making it more affordable by excluding optional extras like engine and body protection. This pricing strategy helped in increasing the bikes accessibility.

Sunday, 09 July 2017 12:16 AM The Kawasaki Z900 was initially launched in India at Rs. 9 lakh (ex-showroom), featuring extras like engine and body protection, fly screen, and radiator guard. This initial launch set the stage for its popularity in the Indian market. I think the initial pricing was a bit steep, but the extras justified it.
