Kawasaki Z800 now available in green shade

Kawasaki India has introduced a new shade of green for its streetbike offering the Z800. The Kawasaki Z800 will be now offered in a new green colour which the Japanese two-wheeler giant calls Candy Flat Blazed / Metallic Spark Black apart from the standard shade of Metallic Spark Black / Flat Ebony (black). The Kawasaki Z800 looked dull in the black colour as it couldn’t highlight the sharp and edgy lines of the Z800. Green is a colour that most two-wheeler aficionados associate it with the brand Kawasaki similar to red and Ferrari. Also many performance bike owners in India prefer their bikes to be in bright and vibrant shades. 

No changes have been made on the mechanical front on the Kawasaki Z800. At the heart of the Z800 sits an 806cc, liquid-cooled, in-line four mill producing 113 PS at 10,200 rpm and 83.0 Nm of torque at 8,000 rpm, which is mated to a six-speed transmission. The bike features 41 mm USD telescopic forks upfront and monoshock setup at rear. Braking is done by dual semi-floating, four-piston, 310 mm petal at front and single 250 mm petal disc, and single-piston at rear.

The Z800 weighs 229kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 17-litres. Kawasaki currently has two dealerships in our country at Pune and Delhi. The Kawasaki Z800 has been priced at Rs 7.90 lakh (ex-showroom Pune) and Rs 8.05 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).  It is expected that the new green colour option will be available at no extra cost. The Kawasaki Z800 competes against the Triumph Street Triple in the Indian two-wheeler market.
