All those riders who don't care about class constraints on the race track and don't have enough fun on the road with a 600 will find a good compromise with the 750. Satisfied 1000cc riders, however, will stay with the 1000cc. 1000cc performance with 600cc handling is not (yet) available. But almost!

The golden mean in every respect

rev-happy engine

sufficient power for the road

fast enough on the racetrack

Chassis components not of high enough quality for serious racetrack use

Kawasaki Z1000 2020

Kawasaki Z1000 2020

The Kawasaki Z1000 (2014) is a statement against the electronic trend of its time - and that is exactly what makes it special today. Its characterful four-cylinder engine, mechanical directness and uncompromising focus on the essentials strike a chord in a time when many bikes have become rolling computers. Yes, it does without modern Advanced Rider Assistance Systems and perfect wind protection. But it offers an authentic naked bike riding experience, paired with Japanese reliability and reasonable maintenance costs. The Z1000 is not a bike for data sheet junkies or electronics fans - it is a bike for people who still want to make their own decisions when rider. An honest bike with character that continues to inspire even after years and more than fulfils its role as an emotional alternative to the digital modern age.
