- Available in a single paint theme
- Priced at Rs. 16.80 lakh
- Rivals the likes of Triumph Speed Twin in India
Kawasaki India has announced the launch of the 2024 Z900RS in our market at an ex-showroom price tag of Rs. 16.80 lakh. The 2024 model is available in a single paint theme – Metallic Diablo Black. Meanwhile, it retains its styling cues from the previous version, and thus includes a round headlight at the front, a twin-pod instrument cluster, a tear-drop-shaped fuel tank, a single-piece saddle, a side-slung exhaust, and spoke-style cast wheels on both ends.
The feature list, too, is similar to the previous version, and the 2024 model comes with full-LED lighting, a semi-digital instrument cluster, dual-channel ABS, Kawasaki Traction Control, and an assist and slipper clutch mechanism.
The mechanical specifications retain the 948cc, inline four-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine. Linked to a six-speed gearbox, this motor is tuned to deliver a maximum output of 107bhp at 8,500rpm and a peak torque of 95Nm at 6,500rpm. Notably, this engine complies with the newest emission standards. Then, the hardware on this motorcycle includes twin 300mm front discs, a single 250mm rear rotor, upside-down front forks, and a rear monoshock.
The Kawasaki Z900RS faces competition from the likes of the Triumph Bonneville T100 and the Speed Twin in the Indian market.
