New Kawasaki Z650 RS

Introducing the 2026 Z650RS, the embodiment of RETROVOLUTION—a perfect marriage of timeless 1970s styling and modern sport-bike technology. This middleweight classic pays homage to the iconic Z650-B1 while delivering a thoroughly modern and user-friendly riding experience. At its core is the acclaimed 649cc Liquid-Cooled Parallel Twin engine, tuned for a thrilling, responsive ride with strong low-to-mid-range torque, making it an ideal companion for both daily commutes and spirited weekend rides. The aesthetic features that define the Z650RS are pure heritage: the signature round LED headlight, a compact, ducktail rear section, and the distinctive spoke-style cast wheels. The cockpit seamlessly blends old and new with dual analogue-style speedometer and tachometer dials flanking a multi-function LCD screen. Its lightweight trellis frame and relaxed, upright riding position ensure confidence-inspiring, agile handling. With modern essentials like ABS, 2-Mode KTRC (Kawasaki Traction Control), an Assist & Slipper clutch, and new 2026 colour options like Metallic Ocean Blue and Candy Emerald Green, the Z650RS offers a truly special, accessible blend of authentic retro charm and contemporary performance.
