Strong Engine with Smart Features
The 2025 Z900 is powered by a 948cc liquid-cooled, inline-four engine producing around 125 horsepower and 98.6 Nm of torque.
While the core performance remains the same, Kawasaki has added a ride-by-wire throttle system, which opens the door for several new electronic features:
- Cruise Control for relaxed highway riding
- Bi-directional Quickshifter for smooth clutchless shifts
- Multiple Riding Modes – Rain, Road, Sport, and Rider (custom)
- Power Mode Selection to adjust throttle response
This makes the Z900 easier to ride in daily traffic while still thrilling for spirited rides.
New Display and Phone Connection
Replacing the older LCD unit, the new 5-inch full-color TFT display provides better visibility and more functionality. Riders can pair their phones via Bluetooth using Kawasaki’s Rideology app, gaining access to:
- Call/SMS alerts
- Turn-by-turn navigation
- Ride statistics and vehicle info

The Z900 now comes with a 5-axis IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit), which improves the precision of rider support features like:
- Cornering ABS
- Traction Control (KTRC)
- Precise Ride Modes and Lean-sensitive Adjustments
These improvements boost safety and performance, especially for less experienced riders or during aggressive cornering.

- 250mm Rear Disc
- Dunlop Sportmax Q5A Tyres on 17-inch alloy wheels for improved grip
Price and Competing Bikes
With a price of ₹9.52 lakh, the Z900 gives a strong mix of power and good value. It costs less or matches the price of other bikes in its class, making it a smart pick for performance bike fans.
- Triumph Street Triple R (₹10.17 lakh)
- Ducati Monster (₹12.95 lakh)
- Honda CB650R (₹9.30 lakh)
