Commenting on the launch of the 2019 Kawasaki Z900, Yutaka Yamashita, Managing Director, India Kawasaki Motors Pvt. Ltd. said that the Z900 is considered as one of the most affordable in-line 4 superbikes in India. But not only the price, but due to its all-round package, Z900 has done really well in the Indian market. It is an ideal commuter during the week and fun to ride on the track. He added that Kawasaki would like to see its customers opting for Kawasaki genuine accessories to enhance the bike further.
Braking on the 2019 Kawasaki Z900 is done with the help of dual 300mm disc brakes up front along with a single 250mm disc brake at the rear. A dual-channel ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System) also comes as standard with the motorcycle to offer added safety and convenience. The 2019 Kawasaki Z900 will be imported to India via the CBU (Completely Built Unit) route.
