2026 Kawasaki Z650 S ABS for Sale

Additional Vehicle Features

• Muscular Sugomi™ styling strengthens the Z family image
• Updated riding position for added comfort and maneuverability

Ergonomics

• FEEL CONNECTED: wider and roomier ergonomics add more comfort to agile handling. The rider triangle places you “in” rather than “on top of” the bike for a feeling of confident connected handling.
• CONFIDENCE MEETS COMFORT: Command the ride in levels of comfort. More cushioned front seat (20mm higher than previous) adds more comfort to the signature commanding ride position. And with a wider seating area for you and your passenger, minimalism gets comfortable.
• COMFORTABLE POSITIONING: A thoughtful footpeg position combined with higher seat height adds to the found comfort without losing the Z motorcycle’s staple sportiness.
• EASY MANEUVERABILITY: A flat, aluminum fat-type handlebar is wider and positioned slightly further forward, putting you in charge of the ride—forward-leaning and elbows out.

Handling

• RIDER AND MACHINE BECOME ONE: Everything built in and around the lightweight chassis of the Z650 S ABS motorcycle is designed to become an extension of the rider.
• RESPONSIVE & BALANCED: The unique gull-arm style swingarm provides space for an under-engine exhaust for a lower center of gravity and improved handling. A horizontal back-link rear suspension offers an ideal balance of sport-riding performance and casual riding comfort. The telescopic front fork is a part of a balanced suspension package, tuned to provide progressive damping with a high level of feedback to the rider.
• TAKE CONTROL: Kawasaki TRaction Control (KTRC) features 2 modes that allow the rider to adjust settings to suit the riding situation and rider preference, or riders may elect to turn it off completely. Mode 1 provides the least amount of assistance with sport riding in mind. Mode 2 offers the most assistance, allowing riders to navigate challenging road conditions with confidence.
• FULLY ADJUSTABLE: For added comfort, both clutch and brake levers are 5-way adjustable to accommodate a variety of hand sizes.
• LIGHTWEIGHT & CAPABLE: The overall light weight of the Z650 S ABS motorcycle comes thanks to a lightweight trellis frame with a low center of gravity for light handling and confident low-speed maneuvering. Form meets function with the exposed frame adding to the technical image of the middleweight nakedbike.
• EXTREME GRIP: Dunlop Sportmax RoadSport 2 tires—made of high-performance rubber—boost handling and provide optimum grip. Dual 300mm front round disc brakes and a 220mm rear round disc work together to add sporty stopping power. A Continental ABS unit adds a smooth feel when ABS kicks in.

Power & Performance

• POWERFUL & SMOOTH: A strong, torquey engine and lightweight chassis contribute to the Z650 S ABS motorcycle’s sporty performance and versatility.
• SPORTY ENGINE PERFORMANCE: Raw power comes from a modern parallel-twin 649cc engine that packs strong torque and strong mid-range acceleration well suited for sport riding.
• ASSIST & SLIPPER: An Assist & Slipper Clutch provides a lighter feel at the lever and a back-torque limiting function that helps prevent rear-wheel hop during more aggressive downshifts.

Z Styling

• AGGRESSIVE & MINIMALIST: Make the streets your ultimate playground with the Z650 S ABS motorcycle. Featuring wide and muscular styling, this middleweight supernaked is more aggressive, more bold, and more Sugomi™ than ever.
• FIERCE, PREDATOR-LIKE POSTURE: The edgy, middleweight image is inspired by Sugomi™, a design philosophy that integrates aggressive lines with minimalist bodywork to draw attention to functional beauty.
• SUPERNAKED SWAGGER: Minimalist style gets a look. A headlight cowl, triple LED headlight design, aluminum side covers, meter cover, turn signals and mirror housing all add to the evolution of the Sugomi™ philosophy for even more supernaked swagger.
• THE SHAPE OF SUGOMI™ STYLE: The updated silhouette is distinctly streetfighter and innately Sugomi™. Front and rear turn signals, side covers, granular style seat, upswept tail, LED taillight, footpeg stays and heel guards combine to make the silhouette unmistakably menacing.
• USEFUL INFORMATION AT A GLANCE: A 4.3-in all-digital TFT (thin-film transistor) color instrumentation gives the cockpit a high-tech, high-grade appearance and visibility. And now the screen’s background color can automatically change between white and black based on ambient light. Updates include 2 display types: choose between hexagonal tachometer or a bar-style tachometer along the top with simple vehicle information below it. Display functions include: smartphone call and mail notifications, digital speedometer, digital bar-style tachometer, gear position indicator, shift lamp, fuel gauge, odometer, dual trip meters, current, and average fuel consumption, remaining range, average speed, total time, coolant temperature, clock, battery voltage, Kawasaki service reminder, oil change reminder, and the Kawasaki Economical Riding Indicator.
• "HEY KAWASAKI, SWITCH TO MODE 2.": Technology within the instrument panel lets you connect to the motorcycle wirelessly. Using RIDEOLOGY THE APP MOTORCYCLE†, several instrument functions can be accessed allowing you to view vehicle info, riding log, phone notifications, display settings, set riding modes, navigation, and voice commands.(†RIDEOLOGY THE APP and all trademarks, registered trademarks, logos, and copyrights are the property of their respective owners.
