Kawasaki Z 500 SE
Kawasaki Z 500 SE 2024 Experiences and Expert Review
vauli
With 52 cubic metres more displacement, the new Z500 SE does not appear to be a ground-breaking development compared to the Z400, but the increase in torque actually makes for a much more confident and mature appearance. The handling remains extremely playful thanks to the low weight and narrower tyres, while the ergonomics are what you would expect from an easy-going A2 naked bike. The suspension surprises with a really successful compromise between sport and comfort for all weight classes. The unagitated brakes, the smooth clutch and the easy manoeuvring make it clear that the new Z500 SE is aimed at all newcomers, beginners and transfer riders. Incidentally, the better and more modern SE version does not cost much more than the standard Z500 - an absolute recommendation for the SE!
