Kawasaki Introduces New Z500 ABS
K
awasaki says its all-new Kawasaki
Z500 ABS motorcycle is "a dynamic
addition to the Z series developed in
parallel with the Ninja 500 motorcycle...
that incorporates practical features for
day-to-day riding enjoyment."
The Z500's 451cc parallel-twin engine
is based on the same engine platform
found in the new Ninja 500. Its super-
naked "Z" design gives it a distinctive
look, with new LED triple headlight
design.
In the rider's compartment, you'll see a
new high-contrast full LCD instrumenta-
tion with smartphone connectivity and a
new seat shape for "a more relaxed,
sporty position."
There is also an SE variation that
features unique color schemes
and graphics. The Z500 SE ABS is
equipped with a high-grade full-color
display with TFT (thin-film transistor)
technology. The screen's background
color is selectable to black or white,
and the screen brightness adjusts auto
-
matically to suit available light.
It also features an USB-C.
Both models are currently available,
with a price tag of $5599 for the Z500
ABS and $6299 for the Z500 SE ABS.
