I bought one in 2018. After owning 18 other bikes over the years I have to say this is the most satisfying and fun to ride bike that I’ve ever owned. I added a one tooth larger front sprocket and sent the ECU out to remove the fuel cutoff between gear changes. I should also mention that the seating position is more comfortable than my R1200R.
I've had mine café for just over a year. Wow, that year sure flew by! I love the bike and was just admiring it a few minutes ago as I left the garage. This is all coming from a Harley rider of 25+ years.
Spot on review. I have this bike and your review totally echoed my sentiments. I personally think that the lack of technologies in this bike will attract people who like to keep motorcycling simple just like in good old days. What’s your recommendation on tires, which ones do you recommend? While pushing hard in the corners I too feel that the tires need to do a better job. Liked and subscribed!
Thanks 😊 Honestly they could've done better as you said. If you want something sticky and fast go for the Michelin Power 5. If you want something that looks a bit more retro try the Dunlop TT100gp 👍
I bought mine when they first came out, the Jaffa (orange-brown) in 2018. The original tyres are pretty crap, I’ve been running Bridgestone S22 which make a big difference. I’ve kept the exhaust standard because I reckon it sounds great the way it is. Kawasaki extras: heated grips, rear grabrail, centre stand. Non Kawasaki extras: Envirotech radiator guard, Translogic up-only quickshifter, Booster Plug to get rid of throttle snatch (it works), but ECU flash coming up soon. Best bike I’ve ever owned and I’ve owned a few. The looks are stunning, that’s why I bought it in the first place as soon as I saw it at the dealers, but I haven’t regretted it.
Can you please comment on how the engine feels in terms of vibrations, especially at highway cruising speeds. How about the gear box? Is it smooth? Thanks
Fell in love with this bike as a 14 yo with a subscription to Cycle Magazine back in the day. Gorgeous, fast, sounds great, what's not to love?!? * To clarify, the one I fell in love with was the Z1 back in 1974! The new one seems like a worthy successor🙌
I have the 50th z650rs and I feel the same way.. z900rs is next on my list but man that 50th edition is so good looking that I may have to wait for a great color on the z900rs in the future.
I pretty much rode every 1970s Kawasaki motorcycle that ever existed... Even the crazy 2-stroke triples. If I had the money I would buy that motorcycle based on looks alone.
I bought a 1974 Z1 900, 82 HP new in 1974, price = $2,100. It was the fastest production street bike at the time. This new Z sounds just like my 1974, the starter and exhaust note. Sold it about 10 years ago for $8,300 with 22,000 miles on it.
It's quite the modern classic and I'm a Team Green guy at heart. I don't care what sort of speed you ride at, get the preload dialed in for you weight. That's basic.
I bought a Z900RS recently .It's a great bike and a head turner . I agree that the throttle is a little jerky , especially when you want to roll off of the power gently , but it's not a show stopper and is part of the sporty character of the bike.
I put Ivan’s tune on mine (I’m in the US) and it fixed most of the nit picks I had with it. Throttle is smooth as glass and the fan on the radiator turns on sooner. More power and better gas consumption are a great bonus
I wonder how it compares to the very comfortable Honda CB1100? I am just an old fart who wants the comfortable riding position riding curvy country highways. I don't want a hot rod, but I do like a little grunt to my ride.
I have never broke down on a kawaski driving it wide open all day in the heat on Yamaha I broke down every month the 900rs will out last any Honda,yahma ,Suzie I know I been driving bikes sence 1970🧝⚡🌴🏴☠️
I have the 2018, rootbeer & orange color. Added a color matched bikini fairing, ECU flash, airbox mods, a modified Corbin seat, K-tech fork kit, K-tech rear shock w/external reservoir, Akrapovic slip on pipe(because it was free) and Michelin Pilot Power 5 tires. Bike was pretty good stock but it's awesome now.
I am so old. lol. I bought a new 1983 Kawasaki KZ1000. It was 506 pounds and 105 horsepower at the wheel and fast. I recall having to hang on firmly so as not to get blown off at high speeds. I look back on that fondly and wish I could own this new 900. Oh well, perhaps in another lifetime?
I bought mine and I love it. I’m 60 years old and have a lot of motorcycles. I put the Brock 4 into 1 and tuned it,so she’s putting down well over 100 horsepower to the rear wheel. Handles like a dream. Brings back so many memories. Finally found a café faring with a smoked screen for the candy brown and orange. She is comfortable beautiful and plenty fast. She gets looks and questions everywhere I go. Do yourself a favor and go get one. Even if you can only wash it and look at it. It will be worth it. Like I said, she makes me feel 18 again. Nothing but smiles
I own a 2018 RS. Replaced the air filter with a Dyna, eliminated the Cat, and had the ECM flashed. Battlax 22's. The bike is the perfect all rounder, love it. Great fun in the twistys. I recommend a booster plug if you want to keep it stock. GM, buy that bike.
I was at G&B Kawasaki today with my buddy who bought a SICK 2014 Vulcan all decked out for $3999 in June ! Anyway, I saw this bike and it reminded me of my CB750, only it was a 2021 model and I was drawn to it, also the one with the cafe fairing 650, I think. I haven't ridden in 20 years and I bought my riding boots last week....
Christmas Eve, 11:00am my lime green 💚 2019 KZ900RS cafe rolled off the delivery truck. It's incredible, this is a collector's dream, often called bike of the century, it's a home run all the way !!! Risers to be replaced as well as handlebars . Returning foot pegs to stock . Bike has been modified for performance/ as it was a professional track bike in its first life . Can't wait for summer... BGOOD BSAFE
2018 Z900rs café owner here (they don’t make the café style anymore unfortunately). I’ve had it 2 years now, only my 2nd bike. I don’t think I will ever ride anything else. The amount of compliments I get on bikes looks alone is just insane. Only negative thing I can point out is the grabby throttle at low revs and seems like I’m not the only one, seeing other comments here… Will look at ECU remap for that…
What do you mean they don’t make Cafe anymore? Mine 2023 gets delivered in 2 days. There are plenty of them in the stores all over the US. Price range betwin $9999 to $12400 on new models. Kawa has promotion going on right now,so you can get them under $10k. Before tax and DMV fees that is.
It's the best all around bike u can buy 0 to 60 3sec. 1/4 mi low 11s it out performs all others in every which way and will out last all other bikes🧝⚡🌴🏴☠️
Damn fine looking bike there dude. In any color combo it came in, it just looks damn good. Cant say that about any Honda nowadays. Kawasaki was not playing games with this one.
Bert berlich, The "actual year" was NOT red. The "72 ZI900 was Orange and brown. I know this because I have an original sitting in my garage. I have had it for over thirty years.
If you have the space, do what I do. Small collector bike insured for the riding season to take to coffee shops or whatever, big bike gets a day permit for the long rides.
I have owned old brit bikes my whole adult life until now at 62. So I'm more than familiar with that type of riding position. I absolutely remember the O.G. Z1 900. It was king till 1980 and trick out models remained some of the quickest nastiest bike,around..until the suzuki Gs 1100 in 1982...the new king... Anyway, I would know the difference between a speed shifter or ride modes on a bike bc 70 triumph bonneville didn't have all that...im selling off most of my old stock and plan on spending some of the money on a modern sport....ish...or sport touring bike to ride till I'm too senile to carry on. ..this z900 rs especially the se model is on my radar..as,well as some bigger boys like the fjr1300...thank you fir the vid, I'm getting mire good than bad information on thr z900.
The radiator and catalytic convertor make me a little sad, but I can tell I would love this bike. I could ditch the pipe where I live because, no emission checks, but I'd be scared of radiator damage if I accidentally dropped it. Maybe I will find a lightly used example one day. 🙂
So I bought a mint retro 1986 CB450 and it is quite beautiful to look at, but there is some wait for push if you turn on the throttle at low RPM. This bike seems to fit the bill of something to look at., and priced really well. Get this for ~8k 2023 with very low mileage
you really dont need any of the electronics that this doesn't have cause they are good needed its too tame , big shame I wish reporters would be more honest
Love these, the only thing stopping me is I'd prefer it with Ohlins but I just cant comes to terms with the Yellow Ball colouring. Wish they would bring out an 'S' model version in the red like this one in the test.
Ive got one great bike looks good great heritage well made now the downsides snatchy throttle euro5 for you gearing from 1 to 4th very short most times start up in 2nd suspension hard from the crate tyres not the best Michelin road 6 for me all the faults can be sorted mines a keeper
I don't have one yet but have been looking at them. The 1st thing I would do is a Kerker exhaust and whatever necessary tuning that entails. The sound of the originals are my favorite part!
the fact that you live in a country that you have to blank out the speed is truly sad. if you want to feel better go out and buy a gun.. oops that right you cannot do that either.
Ive seen a few here in NZ with aftermarket 4 into 4s on them, you can also buy a longer duckbill tailpiece & wire wheels to make them look more like the original 70s Z1.
Agreed, 4 into 4 would be cool. But back in the day the first thing we did was take off the 4 into 4 and fit a 4 into 1, coz back then that was what the race bikes had.

Gorgeous bike, i wouldn't change anything. The stock exhaust sounds awesome but i wish it was black instead of chrome, that's the only thing that bothers me (minor).
Great bike. Fuel cutoff can be eliminated by reflashing the ECM,also,if you map the ECU to it’s pre-EPA standart,engine runs cooler,lover cold start idle,and rpm are set to 10 300 insted of factory 9 600.

brilliant bike , added a quick shifter even better now !
Put 16k kilometers on my 2018 z900rs. Going to run it till it quits
They should have had 4 into 4 exhaust like the original.
That would really make it a true retro !
agree but it would of added more weight
Ive seen a few here in NZ with aftermarket 4 into 4s on them, you can also buy a longer duckbill tailpiece & wire wheels to make them look more like the original 70s Z1.

Big windshield and some engine guards with highway pegs. A cruise control lever to lock in a speed.. All set for a 400 Mile day.

Way too Expensive in Europe, and particularly Ireland. 16,250 Euro???

Gorgeous bike, i wouldn't change anything. The stock exhaust sounds awesome but i wish it was black instead of chrome, that's the only thing that bothers me (minor).
The only thing l would do to the bike would fit a more squarer type indicator unit like on the A4 GPZ 900R but other than that a beautiful bike
What is it like to live with, I don't know let me borrow one for three years and I will let you know.
Many thanks when can I expect delivery.
I'm selling my 2003 ZZR1200 to buy one of these. I'm old and old school and really loved the ole standards.
As soon as one of my fav songs “Days of the Running man” started playing as the intro, I knew this bike was meant for me.
That blurry speedo would annoy the heck out of me. I think I’ll go with the BMW instead.

I have had big Kawasakis and I have had big Yamahas pick one you will not regret it they are high qualities and worth the money
I owned (2) 1976 KZ 900's. The new 900's look amazing! With an additional 23hp, I can't wait for a test ride 😊

zed?
Nice looking. Why are there literally dozens for sale, used on fb marketplace?
These bikes are nice but I'm not a fan of the "snatchy" throttle response that riders mention with this bike.
I don't even think Ducati's Scrambler is this good looking.
Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.

How is it for tall riders? I'm 6'2 33" inseem
Great bike. Fuel cutoff can be eliminated by reflashing the ECM,also,if you map the ECU to it’s pre-EPA standart,engine runs cooler,lover cold start idle,and rpm are set to 10 300 insted of factory 9 600.

As much as I love the look of this bike, I wasn’t that impressed after the test drive.

What is a “Zed 900”??? Zed is dead man……. “Zeee900”!!
