Kawasaki Z900 vs Kawasaki Versys 1000 Comparison

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.

With no cosmetic changes, the 2022 Kawasaki Versys 1000 continues to sport the same dual-LED headlamps, tall visor, massive fairing and long split seats to maximise comfort. Power comes from the same BS6 compliant 1043 cc in-line four-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that develops 118 bhp at 9,000 rpm and 102 Nm of peak torque at 7,500 rpm. The motor is paired with a 6-speed gearbox and gets an assist and slipper clutch. It is a decent sport touring road-oriented motorcycles.
