The Z900 SE is not a successful addition to the normal Z900. The refined suspension and the more powerful Brembo brake system make the SE refreshingly sportier and are well worth the extra cost - especially when you factor in the cool look of the Prestige components!

Stable chassis performance

high-quality Öhlins shock

powerful Brembo brake system

comfortable riding position

good quickshifter

practical electronics

coherent overall package

playful display

maximum lean angle limited

the SE version would have deserved sporty tyres - the standard tyres are too conservative
