Kawasaki W800 Street vs Kawasaki Z900 Comparison

The Kawasaki W800 is a modern classic model which pays homage to the 1960s Kawasaki W series models. With its minimalistic yet elegant design, simple lines, the W800 looks like a proper authentic retro bike. The W800 has a charmingly retro vibe to it and the performance complements that, although the engineering is completely modern. The only downside is the price, which makes it an expensive proposition.

Kawasaki Z900 ups the naked game with a smooth, lively, engine, beautiful handling and great all-round road manners. Yes, there are no electronic rider aids to speak of, and the lack of a windscreen or fairing will have the wind blast get to you, long before you start exploring the bike's top end performance, or touring potential, if you're so inclined. It isn't perfect, but it's easy to use in traffic, and has enough performance to delight you every time you take it out for a spin.
