Kawasaki Z650 Highlights

Kawasaki has launched the BS6 Z650 in India at Rs 5,94,000 ex-showroom. That's a price hike of Rs 25,000 over the BS4 model which retailed at Rs 5.69 lakh (ex-showroom). For 2020, the bike features a new LED headlamp and a 4.3-inch TFT instrument cluster with smartphone connectivity. It’s available in a single shade: Metallic Spark Black.

The mid-displacement streetfighter is powered by a BS6-compliant 649cc parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine that makes the same 68PS at 8000rpm but loses out on torque i.e. 64Nm at 6700rpm as opposed to 65.7Nm at 6500rpm on the 2019 model. The engine retains the 6-speed transmission but misses out on a slipper clutch. 

In terms of underpinnings, the bike uses a steel trellis frame with an upside fork and a monoshock. Its braking setup comprises twin 300 petal discs up front and a single 200mm petal disc at the rear. Its 17-inch wheels come wrapped in Dunlop Sportsmax Roadsport 2 tyres. Interestingly, the 2020 model is just 1kg heavier than its predecessor, which tipped the scale at 190kg kerb. In terms of rivals, the BS6 Kawasaki Z650 competes against the next-generation Benelli TNT 600i and the CFMoto 650NK.
