Kawasaki Motors Malaysia Launches New Z900RS! [+Videos]

It’s here! The latest and coolest retro-sport motorcycle has just hit town in the form of the all-new Kawasaki Z900RS (Retro Sport), launched by Kawasaki Motors (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd at a gala dinner event to celebrate CNY recently.

Looking very much like the successor to the Kawa Zephyr 750 & 1100, the Z900 pays homage to the bike that pushed Kawasaki into the limelight in the 70’s, the legendary Z1. Here’s the promo video…

Priced at RM67,900 for the standard Matte Green and RM69,900 for the Special Two-tone Edition (below), the Z900RS is CBU from Kawasaki Japan.

The Z900 features Kawasaki’s first-ever ‘tuned exhaust note’. “While Kawasaki in-line four cylinder engines have been historically known for their great-sounding exhausts, this is the first time that Kawasaki has used sound research to craft the model’s ideal exhaust note. Sound tuning on the Z900RS‘s engine was focused on the initial roar to life, idling, and low-speed riding where the rider is best able to enjoy the exhaust’s deep growl” – Kawasaki.

Here’s the launch video:
