The Kawasaki Z900 is a standard motorcycle manufactured by Kawasaki in 2017 as a replacement model for the Kawasaki Z800. Besides the Kawasaki ZH2, the Z900 model was also the flagship model of the Z series.
In 2018, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer released the Kawasaki Z900 ABS, the same motorcycle as the base model but with additional safety equipment in the form of an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS).
The bike has an aggressive styling with standard features, such as a dual headlight unit integrated into a stylish cowl, a two-piece dual seat, a four-into-one exhaust system with a silencer mounted on the right side, and lightweight five-spoke wheels.
The bike has a lightweight high-tensile steel trellis frame with a 41 mm inverted adjustable telescopic fork on the front, providing 120 mm of travel, and a horizontal back-link adjustable shock absorber on the rear with 140 mm of travel.
As for the stopping power, the bike's wheels were fitted with two 300 mm petal-type discs coupled to four-piston calipers on the front and a 250 mm petal-type disc with a single-piston caliper on the rear, delivering excellent braking performance enhanced by ABS.
At its core, the 2018 Kawasaki Z900 ABS had installed a 948cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine with a fuel injection system in charge, boasting 125 hp at 9,500 rpm and 98 Nm (73 lb-ft) torque at 7,700 rpm.
