Kawasaki Z900 RS 2022

Z900 RS har en stor fanskara och 2022 bevisar den återigen varför den är så populär. Den kraftfulla motorn övertygar med dragkraft och ett underbart ljud som inte är alltför påträngande. Hanteringen känns naturlig och ger inga utmaningar. Endast en snabbväxel skulle passa motorcykeln - även om det inte riktigt passar retroidén.

The epithet "Beast" is not completely out of the blue, the KTM is and remains a brutal naked bike - 177 hp from two pots with a combined displacement of 1301 cubic metres is nothing harmless. Nevertheless, it is surprisingly easy to control; the upright seating position combined with the good handling make it seem almost docile. Compared to its predecessor, it has been improved precisely at its weakest points. The engine now runs more smoothly, the shift assistant brings calmness in the acceleration phase and the chassis has been improved in quality. But it still loves the wild chase more than high speed in long curves.
