Lightweight, Maneuverable Chassis
Easy to use is the key, as the compact chassis has been designed to be as user-friendly as possible. Predictable handling thanks to a chassis conceived with light weight, maneuverability, and mass centralization in mind provides excellent feel and inspiring confidence for a wide range of riders. The easy handling also facilitates maneuvering when parking.
High-Grade Full Colour TFT Display.
The Z500 SE features a high-grade full colour display with TFT (thin-film transistor) technology, delivering a high level of visibility. The screen’s background colour is selectable (black or white), and screen brightness adjusts automatically to suit available light.
High-Class, Intense Design
No matter from what angle the Z500 is seen, its distinctive front face and sleek, flowing lines make it clear that this is a member of the Ninja family, with race-inspired, big-bike looks. The shape of the full-fairing bodywork fosters a sense of unity with the rider, helping them feel at one with the bike.
Confidence-Inspiring Reach To The Ground
While seat height is 785 mm, the slim design of both the seat and the rear of the engine gives riders an unobstructed line for their feet to reach the ground. The seat’s flat shape offers ample padding in the front portion without sacrificing the comfortable reach to the ground, which helps riders enjoy the bike with confidence.
Light, Predictable Handling
The chassis has a supersport-style short-wheelbase/long swingarm design, complemented by an optimized trail setting that delivers light, natural handling. The bike’s light weight also contributes to easy handling and facilitates maneuvering when off the bike, such as when parking.
New, Larger Displacement Engine
Smooth, powerful acceleration is available with a twist of the wrist from a new 451 cm3 engine. The acceleration feels brisk thanks to plenty of power in the low- to mid-rpm range, and, when the throttle stays on, enough power in the high-rpm range to hit higher speeds with ease. With well-balanced power output and strong acceleration throughout the rev range, the combination of this engine with a lightweight chassis makes the machine well-suited to a wide variety of riding situations including everyday riding.
Large-Diameter Ø 310 mm Brake Disc
Measuring Ø 310 mm (the same disc size used on the Z1100), the Z500’s semi-floating front disc offers sure stopping power. ABS models offer added reassurance when riding.
Intense Supernaked Design
The new Z500 has a sharp, aggressive style and retains the large-volume design of other bikes in the Z series to create an aggressive, agile, street-oriented look. Its muscular, athletic bodywork reflects its performance while forming a flowing design that appears to float above the engine. Like other models in the Z Series, sugomi design elements (crouching stance, low positioned head and upswept tail) give it a silhouette instantly recognizable as a Kawasaki Supernaked.
Ergonomics for Control
Relaxed rider triangle accommodates a wide range of rider sizes and riding situations, contributing to its rider friendly character. The relatively upright riding position and wide handlebar put the rider in the ideal position for active control, facilitating dynamic, sporty riding.
Lightweight Trellis Frame
The Z500 features a trellis frame similar in design to that of the Ninja H2. Kawasaki’s advanced dynamic rigidity analysis was used to ensure optimum rigidity with light weight. The engine is rigid-mounted and used as a stressed member. The frame design contributes significantly to the bike’s low curb mass.
Powerful, Rider-Friendly 451 cm3 Parallel-Twin Engine
The power available from the 451 cm3 engine is found through the entire rpm range to make it easy for riders to use, no matter what kind of riding they are doing, from low-end power for accelerating off the line in the city to top end revs for riding on the highway. The engine in the new Z500 is up the task, no matter what it may be.
Assist & Slipper Clutch
Kawasaki’s Assist & Slipper Clutch results in a light clutch pull for even more rider-friendly and manageable riding in everyday situations, and reduced skipping and hopping from the rear for better sport riding and added confidence.
Instrumentation With Smartphone Connectivity
Both the full LCD instrument panel on the standard models and the TFT display on the SE models offer smartphone connectivity, enabling riders to connect with their machines to enjoy display notifications, riding logs, and community features.
Latest-Design Z "Face"
The Z500’s “face” is based around a newly designed triple headlight unit, enveloped by a sharp front cowl to give it an intense look.
Smartphone Connectivity
Älypuhelinyhteys parantaa ajokokemusta mahdollistamalla langattoman yhteyden moottoripyörään.
Assist & Slipper Clutch
Kilpateknologiaan perustuva Assist & Slipper Clutch toimii sekä moottorijarrun vaimentimena että itsevoimistuvana mekanismina, mahdollistaen kevyemmän kytkinkahvan käytön.
Economical Riding Indicator
Economical Riding Indicator -merkki kojetaulussa kertoo taloudellisesta polttoaineenkulutuksesta ja kannustaa säästävään ajotapaan.
ABS
ABS-jarrujärjestelmä (lukkiutumaton jarrujärjestelmä) varmistaa vakaan jarrutustehon estämällä pyörien lukkiutumisen jarrutuksessa.
