2024 Z900RS SPECIAL EDITION

$23,995

With retro sport models enjoying great popularity, Kawasaki proudly offers another option for riders who prefer the timeless design and inherent beauty of traditional motorcycles.

A highgrade variation of the Z900RS, the new Z900RS SE features a new Brembo brake package and a high-grade Öhlins rear shock to deliver a plusher ride feel and even greater control.

As the Z900RS featured styling reminiscent of the Z1, 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.

FEATURES

LIGHTWEIGHT TRELLIS FRAME

Like the engine, the chassis responds to rider input predictably, going where the rider wants it to without resistance. In keeping with its retro sport model character, the Z900RS’ stance is less forward-leaning than the Z900.

ASSIST & SLIPPER CLUTCH

Race-inspired clutch technology offers both a much lighter feel at the lever, as well as a back-torque limiting function that helps prevent rear-wheel hop when downshifting.

41MM INVERTED FORK

Large-diameter inverted fork contributes to excellent ride comfort and sporty riding potential. The high-grade fork features compression and rebound damping adjustability, enabling precise settings to suit rider preference and riding style.

ICONIC “YELLOW BALL” STYLING

Drawing from Kawasaki’s collection of legendary machines, the Z900RS SE’s styling is reminiscent of the iconic “Yellow Ball,” a black and yellow version of the orange and brown “Fireball” paint of the original Z1.

Öhlins S46 REAR SHOCK

Complementing the large diameter inverted fork, Öhlins rear suspension offers both increased ride comfort and a more planted feel.

BREMBO BRAKES

Front brake package with Brembo components (discs, calipers, pads) offers stronger stopping power and contributes to even more precise control and greater ease of use.
