About the Reviewer

Hi, This is the first Super Awesome Superbike that I gifted to myself on my bday(3 weeks ago). And yes it's not my dad's money. It's my own hard-earned money.
I wanted to own a superbike & was a little skeptical about the Kawasaki brand reputation(service/maintenance). As for the premium bike segment in my hometown, there are Kawasaki and BMW showrooms only. For any other bike, Kolkata is the nearest place to visit. Earlier I was thinking of 650CC bikes - Continental GT650, Z650, CB650R , Z650RS , MotoMorini Twins. The budget was 8lakhs.
So when heard about the newly inaugurated Kawasaki Showroom in my hometown, rushed there, after hearing that Z900 was on display. Was awestricken by the looks & after going thru a lot of Youtube videos and reviews, settled for Z900.
1. Buying Experience - That was great. Got delivered the same day as committed. The staff were cooperative and well-behaved.
2. Riding - FIRST RIDING EXPERIENCE - You'll enjoy the response from the engine and exhaust. While getting the delivery(I had never ridden any superbike in my life) was quite nervous as I had to drive 120 km to reach my home and on a brand new superbike. This machine shoots like a wild boar. Anyways after driving merely 8-10 km, this machine gave me confidence that you aint a naïve rider. It was like my Z was saying to me to open the throttle and enjoy the ride. Loved that feeling. It's comfortable for highways / stretched roads. In normal city traffic, this is not the bike you want. It heats up very arrogantly.
3. Looks and Performance - 10/10. Head turner.
4. Service/maintenance - In a few days, I have my first Service Date. See it's a superbike so you need to be prepared. I am expecting 10-12K per service. Which is OK with me. Also spent 40K on accessories like crash protection, spools, tank pads, etc.
Final Verdict
It's a superbike. You can't keep it like any other 150-200cc bike unless you are financially strong. These bikes come with a high maintenance cost and care as well. I spent almost 40K in buying accessories just for protecting the bike.
I will share a few cons and except these all are PROS
1. Gear Shifting is not smooth. Very noisy gear shifting. might give you heart attacks.
2. Seats aren't very much comfortable for both Rider/Pillion. For riders - in one sitting you can easily stretch 80-100 kms. For short rides like <50kms it's good.
3. Not for city rides(especially in summers). Heats up very quickly.
4. Tyres are not good enough to handle wet and slippery roads, otherwise it has a nice grip on a dry, rough, and hard surface.
5. Maintenance is high

This bike is literally what you need this bike has the most beautiful look, experience, and comfort. In an easy word, you can describe this bike as a beast. The sound and the exhaust are also a beast or more than a beast. And the price of this bike is also good as per the overall average package of this bike. I’ll highly recommend you all to take a look at this beast if you’re searching for a beast in a budget of around 10l. Go for it and take a look, guys.
