Share
Kawasaki continues to redefine the Supernaked class with the new 2025 Z900 ABS, showcasing a perfect blend of power, agility, and advanced technology.
Since its debut in 2017, the Z900 ABS has embodied Kawasaki’s tradition of producing 900cc-class machines that deliver both exhilarating performance and exceptional handling. Building on its legacy, the new Z900 ABS features significant updates, including a high-revving engine with enhanced torque, agile handling, and cutting-edge electronics such as Kawasaki’s first ever turn-by-turn navigation system.
With its iconic “sugomi” design elements which is sharp styling, crouching stance, and dynamic performance. So, the Z900 ABS is set to offer riders an unmatched motorcycling experience, whether on city streets or canyon roads.
Inheriting the exciting and rider-friendly concept of its predecessors, the new Z900 ABS benefits from chassis and engine updates that contribute to even greater street-riding fun. Enhanced brakes complement its light and agile handling, and updated suspension settings and new tires contribute to increased cornering performance.
The high-revving engine offers stronger low-end torque and electronic throttle valves, and an enhanced electronic riding support package includes IMU feedback and Kawasaki’s latest dual-direction KQS.

The Z900 ABS in-line 4-cylinder engine provides a crisp and smooth throttle response, perfectly complementing its light and agile handling, allowing riders to fully enjoy spirited riding.
The bike is exhilarating yet approachable, with a seamless off-on power transition that makes control the most satisfying aspect of the ride. The 948cc liquid-cooled, 4-stroke in-line 4-cylinder engine revs quickly and delivers strong mid-range power, pulling all the way to the redline for an exhilarating experience.
The bore and stroke measurements of 73.4 x 56.0mm were chosen to deliver the desired engine characteristics. Power delivery is smooth and linear, with enhanced low-end torque and the ability to rev quickly from 6,000 rpm, offering a silky-smooth response at mid-to-high rpm ranges for excellent drivability.
New updates include a revised cam profile that improves fuel economy and increases torque at lower rpm, which is beneficial for city riding and exiting slower corners.
The engine’s downdraft throttle bodies ensure intake air travels the shortest possible distance, contributing to enhanced performance, while good over-rev characteristics help prevent sudden power drop-off at high rpm.
