At the heart of the Z900RS lies a powerplant tuned for smooth performance at low rpm and greater excitement at higher revs. That famed engine now features Electronic Throttle Valves (ETV), allowing both Electronic cruise control plus an IMU-equipped rider support technology package that includes Kawasaki Cornering Management Function (KCMF) and an up/down Kawasaki Quick Shifter (KQS).
Keeping its classic lines but now with a new tuned megaphone-style muffler and reshaped exhaust header pipes, this gives the bike an even more expressive appearance and sound, emphasising the timeless Z concept.

Available in standard and SE, with the SE variant featuring a Brembo brake package including M4.32 radialmount monobloc front calipers (same as Z H2) and ø300 mm Brembo disc rotors with steel braided hoses, plus a high-grade S46 Öhlins rear shock with remote reservoir adjuster to deliver a plusher ride feel and even greater control. A USB-C socket appears on the right side of the handlebar while the overall look echoes a variation of the iconic “Fireball,” Z1 colouring using enhanced saturation orange graphics and a body colour changed from brown to metallic black.
The standard model is available in a choice of “Blackball” with Fireball-style body emblems and an impactful all-black appearance, plus an evocation of the 1975 Z1B colourway in stunning Candy Tone Red.

Fiveways Motorcycle Centre LTD is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Fiveways Motorcycle Centre LTD to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.
We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.
Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.
Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.
All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required.
