2026 Kawasaki Z900 Launched in India – Price at ₹9.99 lakh

With the festive season kicking in, Kawasaki India has unwrapped a surprise for performance enthusiasts — the 2026 Kawasaki Z900. Priced at ₹9.99 lakh (ex-showroom), this iconic middleweight naked bike gets two brand-new colour schemes, adding a fresh visual punch to an already exciting package.

For Indian riders who love raw performance without the supersport crouch, the Z900 has always been the sweet spot — aggressive yet practical, thrilling yet refined.

What’s New for 2026?

Kawasaki’s 2026 refresh is all about style and value. The Z900 now comes in:

  • Candy Lime Green / Metallic Carbon Grey
  • Metallic Matte Graphene Steel Grey / Metallic Flat Spark Black

Apart from these new shades, there are no mechanical changes — but here’s the surprise: it’s ₹19,000 cheaper than last year’s model!

The move clearly aims to capitalise on the festive buying sentiment, offering superbike excitement at a slightly more accessible price tag.

Engine, Performance & Electronics

The heart of the Z900 remains its 948cc, inline-four, liquid-cooled engine, producing:

  • Power: 123 bhp
  • Torque: 97.4 Nm
  • Gearbox: 6-speed with bi-directional quickshifter

Smooth yet ferocious, this motor defines the “Sugomi” philosophy — intimidating presence with explosive performance.

On the tech front, Kawasaki packs the Z900 with:
Cruise Control
Ride-by-Wire Throttle
Traction & Wheelie Control
Dual-Channel ABS
Two Power Modes
Four Ride Modes — Sport, Road, Rain, Rider (custom)

The 5.0-inch full-colour TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity keeps things premium and connected, while the switchgear comes directly from the Ninja 1000SX, adding an extra dash of quality.

Design & Styling – Sugomi, Reimagined

Even though there are no major design overhauls, the Z900 still commands attention. It stays true to Kawasaki’s Sugomi design language, blending muscular lines, a sharp LED headlamp, and an aggressive stance that screams performance.

  • The Candy Lime Green colour channels Kawasaki’s signature energy.
  • The Graphene Grey/Flat Spark Black combo offers stealth appeal for mature riders.

Both shades highlight the Z900’s strong, sculpted bodywork — giving riders more personality to choose from.
