I am having trouble deciding between the Honda CBR650R and Kawasaki Z900.

When it comes to choosing between the Kawasaki Z900 and the Honda CBR650R, the decision comes down to several factors such as budget, brand preference, serviceability, engine preference, etc. The Kawasaki Z900 is one of the most cost-effective inline-four naked big bikes and comes with a powerful 125PS motor. It also offers TFT instrumentation, traction control, Bluetooth connectivity, riding modes, all-LED illumination, and stunning looks. 

On the other hand, the Honda CBR650R is powered by a 649cc, liquid-cooled, inline-four engine that has been upgraded for a stronger mid-range. It now produces 87PS at 12,000rpm and 57.5Nm at 8500rpm. Furthermore, the bike features new graphics, a revised LED headlight reflector profile, and a USB Type-C port for under-seat charging. We suggest taking a test ride to get a better understanding of its performance and riding comfort.
