Kawasaki has launched the BS6 Z650 in India at Rs 5,94,000 ex-showroom. That’s a premium of Rs 25,000 over the BS4 model. But, the extra dough gets you Kawasaki naked’s Sugomi styling philosophy, a new LED headlight, and a 4.3-inch colour-TFT screen. The TFT console even features smartphone connectivity via Kawasaki’s dedicated Rideology app. The bike is available in a single metallic black livery.
It’s powered by a BS6-compliant 649cc parallel-twin engine that puts out 68PS of peak power (same as before). However, the bike’s torque output has slipped from 65.7Nm at 6500rpm to 64Nm at 6700rpm. It retains the same 6-speed transmission but misses out on a slipper clutch.
Additional changes come in the form of grippier Sportmax Roadsport 2 tyres instead of the old Sportmax D214s. All this while weighing just 1kg more than before. Its hardware includes a steel trellis frame with an upside fork and a monoshock. The bike is anchored by a pair of twin 300 petal discs up front and a single 200mm petal disc at the rear.
In terms of rivals, the BS6 Kawasaki Z650 competes against the next-generation Benelli TNT 600i and the CFMoto 650NK. Customers can book the new Z650 at their nearest Kawasaki dealership or drop booking enquiries on Kawasaki's website.

- Worth every single pennyI am a huge fan of riding, and this bike delivers what almost every rider want , an aggressive approach and smooth handling. Just loved it , however, cost of maintenance and other stuff can get quiet expensive . If you are looking for an weekend kinda bike , then I'll recommend it but not for city (especially crowded cities like mumbai) where u hardly get good patch with low traffic , plus u will encounter speed breakers at the least expected place , so for everyday it's a NO. I cannot stress on how good it glides , even with heavy pillion . Overall a great package if your budget allows itRead More
