The 2026 Z900RS is a refresh of the retro Z1-inspired roadster, with a revised 948 cc engine using electronic throttle valves and a new megaphone-style silencer. IMU-based cornering management, traction control and ABS are added, along with a quick shifter, electronic cruise control and smartphone connectivity. New colourways are offered, and the Café version adds a front cowl, drop bars and a custom seat.
