Highest-Level Supernaked Performance

Highest-Level Supernaked Performance

A highly rigid aluminium twin-tube frame, SFF-BP forks and Horizontal Back-link suspension, in addition to monobloc calipers paired with large ø310 mm brake discs create a sharp, direct response to rider inputs, making every twist of the throttle a visceral experience, connecting the rider directly to the road.

More Power, More Control

More Power, More Control

The torquey engine delivers more power to riders where they need it most, in the low- to mid-speed range most commonly used around town, in addition to linear acceleration response in the mid- to high-speed range. Also, an updated riding position enhances control, improving the ride feeling in a wide variety of riding situations.

5” Instrumentation with Smartphone Connectivity

Kawasaki’s IMU-enhanced rider support technologies add even more convenience and peace of mind to the riding excitement of the Z1100, while an easy-to-read display with smartphone connectivity elevates the quality of the sugomi experience to new heights.

Electronic Cruise Control

Electronic Cruise Control

Kawasaki’s cruise control system allows a desired speed to be maintained with the simple press of a button. Once activated, the rider does not have to constantly apply the throttle. This reduces stress on the right hand when traveling long distances, enabling relaxed cruising and contributing to a high level of riding comfort.

1,099 cm3 In-Line Four: Increased Displacement for

The engine in Kawasaki’s top naturally aspirated Z Supernaked displaces 1,099 cm3 and delivers 11.5 kgƒ·m of torque. The liquid cooled, 4-stroke In-Line Four engine pulls even more strongly in the low-to-mid rpm range—which riders will notice immediately and use often. From mid- to high-rpm, riders will enjoy the strong performance and sharp throttle response of the large-displacement engine.

KQS (Kawasaki Quick Shifter)

KQS (Kawasaki Quick Shifter)

Complementing the Z1100’s exhilarating engine character, the contactless-type quick shifter enables clutchless upshifts and downshifts for seamless acceleration and quick and easy deceleration.

Brembo Front Brakes and Öhlins Suspension

Brembo Front Brakes and Öhlins Suspension

At the front, Brembo brakes with radial-mount monobloc calipers deliver strong and highly controllable stopping power, while the Öhlins S46 shock absorber at the rear provides a plush feel and ample adjustability to tailor the setup to the rider’s preferences. The result of these two is refined on-road riding performance.

Sugomi Styling

Sugomi Styling

Looks befitting Kawasaki’s top-of-the-line naturally aspirated Supernaked machine feature sugomi styling elements. Even at rest, the Z1100 looks ready to pounce, tense with energy waiting to be released. This is expressed in the sharp lines and aggressively curved surfaces found throughout the bodywork, engine covers, and menacing front end.

Original Sugomi
