2022 Kawasaki Z650RS Urban Bike – Features and Specs
Brakes
Dual ø 300mm front disc brakes and 20220mm rear provide enough braking power. Round discs contribute to the retro-sport image of the motorcycle.
Spoke Style Cast Wheels
Real cast wheels like the Z900RS have flat spokes resembling classic wire wheels. Designed using Kawasaki’s state-of-the-art analysis technology, the wheels offer a balance of lightweight and stylish shape, which helps in both handling and design suitable for the retro category.
Parallel Twin Engines
Suitable for everyday riding, the exciting parallel-twin engine offers quick response, strong low-mid-range performance, and good fuel economy. Opening the Hein Throttle, riders will see a smooth and powerful engine character that offers a high level of control when making minute throttle adjustments and a pleasant rush of acceleration in the lower RPM ranges.
Lightweight Trails Frame
One of the key partners in the Z650RS’s light weight (noticeable when lifted from the bike’s side stand) is its innovative trail frame. Weighing 13.5 kg, it plays an important role in the light, natural handling of the motorcycle.
Comfortable Riding Position
The wide, flat handlebar and comfortable riding position keep the rider in a natural, relaxed place that impresses confidence and facilitates control for a wide range of riders.
Modern Retro Styling
Like Kawasaki’s retro game Z900RS, the Z650RS has everlasting good looks. As a middleweight model, the light and comfortable shape reflects her rider-friendly character. The allure of the traditional bike is complemented by humble and up-to-date design touches that allow the Kawasaki Z650RS to blend seamlessly into your daily life.
ABS
ABS (Anti-Lock Brake System) ensures stable braking performance by stopping the wheel lock during braking.
Horizontal backlink rear suspension
Horizontal Back-link Rear Suspension aligns its shock unit horizontally, greatly contributing to efficient use of space and large-scale centralization.
Assist and slipper clutch.
Based on racing technology, the Assist and Sleeper clutch is a torque limiter and a self-service mechanism that enables a lightweight clutch lever bridge.
Dual throttle valves
Dual throttle valves increase the power of the second set of ECU-controlled throttle valves and provide greater ease of use.
Economic ride signals
