WIDE AND AGGRESSIVE STYLING

Head-turning design

Retaining its compact chassis, nimble nature, and sporty riding position, the new Z650 S’s Sugomi styling now features bodywork that makes it appear wider and more aggressive, appealing to riders who want to be seen on an impressive-looking bike, but one that also has a rider-friendly character.

*Sugomi describes core performance and styling elements found in Kawasaki’s Z supernaked models. Imbued with sugomi, their performance excites; a ride on a Z supernaked is a visceral experience that stimulates the senses; engine and chassis tuning deliver a high level of control. Sugomi is also evident in their sharp styling, dynamic crouching form, and distinct silhouette.

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY

Enhancing life aboard the Z650 S

The new Z650 S offers advanced Kawasaki technology, including traction control; KQS as an accessory for fun, engaging gear shifting; digital TFT instrumentation to provide information at a glance; and smartphone connectivity to help keep the rider well informed, all contributing to a more enjoyable motorcycling life.

LIGHTWEIGHT AND CAPABLE

Supernaked Performance and Handling

The new Z650 S retains the signature light weight and nimble handling of its predecessor despite wider and more aggressive looks. Riders will welcome its straightforward, natural handling and more experienced riders will appreciate how flickable and manoeuvrable it is, especially in the city.
