Kawasaki Z900RS (2018) Review
- Thread starter TK4
- Start date
I love the look of the bike, but yeah, that's a steep premium for a pretty bike. Still cheaper than a Ducati Scrambler though. I initially thought the $1300 price jump between the XSR700 and the FZ-07 was bad, but it looks a lot more reasonable now in comparison.
You’ve got the Honda cb1100 EX prices within $100 or so.
Air cooled, heavier and down on power. Twin shocks. Definitely a throw back.
Kawasaki takes a different path with modern suspension and liquid cooling but does evoke the emotions of the classic Z.
Yamaha XSR is completely modern with hints of retro styling, with round headlight and throwback paint. But it’s got performance and value with a list price a couple of grand less.
Triumph has a few variants to choose from with decent power, pricing that can be less or more depending on the version you go with.
Ducati Scrambler is in the same sand box as this group in terms of retro styling, price point and performance.
Lots to choose from!

yeah just saw the pricing, its essentially a watered down z900(which is a nice bike) but better looking and an extra 4k bump in price.
not worth it IMO, unless your dead set on the looks and have money to burn
Id rather get the z900...or the xsr900, retro styling and an awesome engine
