Style and electronics updates
Kawasaki introduced its Z900 in the 2026 version after the 2025 model. This bike includes all updates with the 2025 model. It has a completely new style, revised electronics and updated color scheme. Because no major mechanical changes have been made to the MY26, bike riding and performance give the same reliable experience as previously found in the model.
Engine and performance
The new Kawasaki Z900 features a 948cc inline-4 liquid-cooled engine. This engine generates 125 horsepower and 98.6Nm torque. There has been a lighter increase of 1hp in power and 1.2Nm in torque than last year’s model. There has been no change in the electronics package. The bike has ride-by-wire throttle, cruise control, by-directional quickshifter, power mode, riding mode, traction control and dual-channel ABS as before. These features make every ride smooth, safe and exciting.
Color and design
Two new color options have been introduced in the 2026 model. The first is Popular Candy Green, which was not available in the 2025 model. The second is the new black paint option with gold frame. The style of the bike looks even more attractive with these new colors. Overall, the new Z900’s design features lightweight improvements and revised color palettes make it even more premium and sporty.
Price and Availability
After the revised GST rates, the price of the Kawasaki Z900 had increased slightly from 9.52 lakh to Rs 10.18 lakh. However, the 2026 model has been launched in India at a price of less than Rs 10 lakh, so that it remains competitive in its segment. The Z900 is one of Kawasaki’s best-selling bikes in India, and its new model is designed to pursue this success.
