Kawasaki Z900 vs Triumph Trident 660

Question 1

Q. I am confused between CBR650R vs Z900.

Answer

Selecting between the Kawasaki Z900 and Honda CBR650R would depend on certain factors such as your budget, brand preference, serviceability, engine preference, etc. The Kawasaki Z900 is one of the most bang-for-buck inline-four naked big bikes out there. Along with its impressive 125PS motor, the Z900 also offers TFT instrumentation, traction control, Bluetooth connectivity, riding modes, all-LED illumination, and not to forget, razor-sharp aesthetics. On the other hand, CBR650R is powered by 649cc, liquid-cooled, inline-four engine that has been updated for a stronger mid-range. In its BS6 guise, it now puts out 87PS at 12,000rpm and 57.5Nm at 8500rpm. CBR650R features new graphics, a revised LED headlight reflector profile, and a USB Type-C under-seat charging socket. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and riding comfort. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

Question 2

Q. Which bike to buy, Kawasaki Z900 or Suzuki GSX-S1000GT?

Answer

It would be unfair to give a verdict here as Suzuki GSX-S1000GT hasn't launched yet. So we would suggest you wait for the bike to get launched for a fruitful comparison. Stay tuned for further updates. Follow the link to get an alert when Suzuki GSX-S1000GT is launched. On the other hand, Kawasaki Z900 is a great pick. Kawasaki has launched 2021 Z900 in India at Rs 8.42 lakh (ex-showroom). The bike remains unchanged and still remains an excellent value proposition in the market.

Question 3

Q. What to choose, Triumph Trident 660 or Triumph Tiger Sport 660?

Answer

It would be unfair to give a verdict here as Triumph Tiger Sport 660 hasn't launched yet. So we would suggest you wait for the bike to get launched for a fruitful comparison. Stay tuned for further updates. Follow the link to get an alert when Triumph Tiger Sport 660 is launched. On the other hand, the Trident delivers better on the sort of performance you’d expect from a “big bike” and this, in our books, makes it better value-for-money. The premium is well justified for the thrills you experience, courtesy of the 660cc triple engine. It handles well, and like a patient teacher, builds you up nicely for larger capacity motorcycles that you’d most likely upgrade to after a few years.

Question 4

Q. Which bike has the best braking system, Street Triple R, or Ninja Z900?

Answer

Ninja Z900

Answer

IDK ABOUT STREET TRIPLE R, BUT FOR Z900 THE REAR BRAKES ARE QUITE WEAK AS COMPARED TO FRONT BRAKES...

Answer

Triumph has not kitted the Triple R with the same braking setup as the RS. So, no Brembo M50 monobloc calipers, Brembo MCS levers and radial master cylinder. You get the entry-level (in the performance-motorcycling world) M4.32 monoblocs and a conventional brake master cylinder. It does shed speed rather quickly, with little to no ABS intervention when going hard on the front brake lever. At the rear, the ABS does kick in subtly. But if you have ridden the RS, the system on the R leaves you longing for a bit more sharpness. One particularly annoying thing about the brakes is the squeaky noise that is generated when braking from around 40-50kmph On the other hand, The new bike comes with four rider modes: Rain, Road, Sport, and Manual. This should help offer riders the confidence to push the bike a bit more than they normally would without electronics. Plus, there are two power modes too. What’s impressive is the fact that despite meeting the new emission norms, there has been no drop in power. The 948cc, in-line-four engine produces 125PS at 9500rpm and 98.6Nm at 7700rpm Transmission duties are handled by a 6-speed gearbox with slip and assist clutch. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision.

Question 6

Q. Kawasaki Z900 or Triumph Street Triple 2020 RS?

Answer

Selecting between the Kawasaki Z900 and Triumph Street Triple RS would depend on certain factors such as your budget, brand preference, serviceability, engine preference, etc. The Street Triple RS retails at Rs. 11.35 Lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) while the Z900 is priced at Rs. 8.34 Lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). In terms of performance, the Z900 gets a bigger 946cc in-line four cylinder engine that puts out 125PS at 9500rpm and 98.6Nm of torque at 7700rpm, which is the highest in its class. On the other hand, the Street Triple RS employs a 765cc in-line 3-cylinder engine that makes 123PS at 11,750rpm and 79Nm at 9350rpm. The Triumph Street Triple is a fantastic no-nonsense friendly big bike with great performance, phenomenal intuitive handling, and top-drawer kit. It does skimp on features and looks a bit bland but it seriously knocks it out of the pack in the VFM department. Whereas, the Kawasaki Z900 is one of the most bang-for-buck inline-four naked big bikes out there. Along with its impressive 125PS motor, the Z900 also offers TFT instrumentation, traction control, Bluetooth connectivity, riding modes, all LED illumination, and not to forget, razor-sharp aesthetics.
