Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki Z 800 2017

Overall, the Z800 delivered a sensational performance. Considering the fact that nothing was changed or optimised on the vehicle apart from the Remus rear silencer, a super final result.

Eye-catching, chunky look

confident acceleration

relaxed geometry

powerful brakes

Limited freedom of movement for the legs.

Kawasaki Z 750R 2011

All in all, we think the Kawasaki Z 750 is right to wear the R. It is definitely a lot of fun on trackdays. However, if you want to hunt for lap times energetically, you have to invest in the chassis. Primarily to gain lean angle clearance. After that, you could even think about an "RR" in the name abbreviation.

Confident engine

excellent braking system and ABS.

Stability - unsteadiness in the chassis.
