How much does a Kawasaki Z900 cafe bike cost?
Kawasaki’s slick Z900 RS Café is a great looking retro – but the motor can feel a little on the soft side. Over in the UK, top drag tuning shop Big CC Racing has fixed all that though, with a power-doubling turbocharger install – that costs just $9,000 AUD…
Why does the Kawasaki Ninja 1000 hate corners?
The 2017 Ninja 1000 hated corners. Kawasaki had lowered the rear of the bike via the bottom linkage and also softened the forks. Throw in the 50-profile rear tyre and you had a bike that was happy in a straight line but any sign of a corner and it wanted to stand up and head for the trees.
Is the Kawasaki z900rs a Street Sleeper?
200hp and a truck worth of fat torque is what life is all about! Al gives the Big CC Racing RS the berries. Who doesn’t love the idea of a ‘street sleeper’? A bog-stock bike that seems like nothing special, just sitting at the red light. Waiting. Waiting for some show-off to pull up on his full-bore superbike, or fancy German sports car.
Is the Kawasaki Ninja 1000sx sports tourer still the same bike?
Kawasaki had lowered the rear of the bike, something was wrong. For 2014 there were the first updates, more power and torque (the engine remains the same now and for 2021), faster acceleration (0 – 100km/h in 2.5s, 1/4-mile in 10.4s), two Power Modes, KTRC, optional ABS and sportier suspension.

Is the Kawasaki z900rs a Turbo bike?
The turbo Zed performs almost exactly as standard in terms of handling of course, since Sean’s not made any chassis mods. Plus, the extra mass of the turbo install is just about cancelled out by losing the standard exhaust system, catalysts and airbox, so we’re still in the same ballpark weight-wise.
What’s the Revs on a Kawasaki H2 Superbike?
The result, as Sean is keen to show me on the dyno before I take her for a spin, is a sweet 200bhp – at just 9,500rpm. That’s a touch more than Kawasaki’s supercharged H2 superbike makes on his dyno, and at just 2/3rds of the revs.
