More, always more. The Z 900 wants to offer more with its Performance Plus package. But what else could Kawa add to its strategic roadster? Well, a little something extra, none other than carbon protection for the exhaust system. A simple appendage that complements the Akrapovic silencer included in the Performance package, along with the windscreen, self-adhesive gel tank protector and seat cover.

the Z 900 is now ready to hit the road, with the bulk of the accessory catalog safely tucked away. Largely more advanced than the Z 800 it replaces, this machine will not shy away from a good battle with the stars of the segment. A segment that the Z has long held under its thumb, and which it no longer intends to let slip from its grasp. Lighter, more powerful, more Sugomi, and here more singing and imperious, the Kawasaki Z 900 Perfomance Plus is priced at the psychological 10-bar mark. But there's nothing more to add to the pleasure.
