The 2018 Z 900 is a supernaked built around a 948 cc four-cylinder engine on a light trellis frame, with styling taken from Kawasaki's Sugomi design language. The page stresses sharp throttle response, a smooth powerband and a light, nimble chassis for spirited riding. It is the full-power model from which the A2 Rider Edition was derived.
