Kawasaki Z900 SE 2023

The Z900 SE is not only a successful addition to the normal Z900, but actually the better and more sensible version. Because the refined fork, the Öhlins suspension strut that is not fully adjustable but more responsive, and the snappier Brembo M4.32 brake system make the SE refreshingly sportier and are well worth the extra price - especially if you also take into account the cool look of the Prestige components! However, the fact that a quickshifter is not even available at extra cost will hurt real sports enthusiasts. If you can live with the relatively high weight of over 214 kilos, you get a sufficiently manageable naked bike.

Powerful, pleasantly sonorous four-cylinder engine

high-quality chassis components, Öhlins at the rear

strong Brembo M4-32 brakes

good ergonomics

easy handling.

No quickshifter, not even optional

no lean angle dependent traction control and no cornering ABS due to missing IMU

high weight
