Bore and stroke measure 73.4 mm and 56 mm for a medium-hot 11.8-to-1 compression ratio that should probably tolerate mid-grade pusholine well enough. The official torque numbers show that the Kawasaki Z900 SE produces 73.1 pound-feet of grunt at 7,700 rpm, and the UN-official horsepower figures come in at 113 ponies at 9,800 rpm. The pistons come with voids engineered in to reduce weight, just like the H2/H2R. Vents between the partitions in the crankcase reduce pumping losses and further spice up the throttle response. Minimal fenders are a constant across the board, in keeping with the naked-streetfighter look, along with minimal passenger amenities. If you're looking for a cushy passenger perch, you're looking at the wrong kind of bike. https://tstindustries.com/tst-led-programmable-sequential-integrated-tail-light-kawasaki-z900-2017.html

The front blinkers come mounted up high and well out of harm's way, but the rear ones may be vulnerable in a drop or low-speed slide. All LED lighting provides maximum lumen output for the weight investment. The liter-ish naked sportbike field is fairly crowded, especially amongst Kawi's domestic competitors. I wanted a different perspective so I looked to Ducati for its Monster naked-sport model. Ducati Monster Aggressive yet elegant, the Z900 SE is the latest road weapon to come from the rollers of the good times over at Kawasaki. The factory kept to the minimalist approach associated with its super-naked “Z” line of machines and spared very little weight on superfluous vanity items. Notable exceptions include the little cheek fairings that hide the steering head along with the top of the radiator and the belly pan that dresses up the bottom of the engine area so nicely.

Kawi's signature angular look shines through at the front end, and it flows into the cheek fairings to tie the look together across what little bodywork it carries. Even the front fender – reduced to a minimum – pulls double duty as a spoiler for the front forks. Kawasaki powers the Z900 SE with a 948 cc, transverse-mount, four-banger plant, the same engine as in the Z900. It's liquid-cooled for thermal stability and emissions control. Just installed the just released TST tail light. They have been in development for a long time and today it finally arrived.

dedicated brake LEDs combine with the 56 mentioned above to fill in previously unlit areas for maximum brightness running / brake LEDs at 80% brightness during running light mode and switch to 100% brightness for brake modeThe exhaust valves measure 24 mm at the outside diameter of the poppet to carry off the waste gasses. This turns out punchy performance in the mid- and top-end of the rev range. Direct plug and play with included sub-harness (OEM connectors for 100% bolt-on with zero modifications)
