With this perfect combination of sports performance and daily adaptation, the aggressively similar 2022 Kawasaki Z650 ABS Sports Motorcycle is a small middleweight without legs, with advanced technology and a powerful 649cc engine. The 2022 Z650 features a parallel twin 649cc engine, lightweight trails frame, Sugomi-inspired Z design, LED headlights, TFT color instruments, RIDEOLOGY The APP, Dunlop Sportmax Roadsport 2 tires, and better passenger comfort.
The Kawasaki Z Spirit emerges from the exquisite Sugomi design, easy handling, and accessible power. The latest technology is provided by LED lighting and TFT display. Every ride on the Z650 will boost your senses and excite you.
2022 Kawasaki Z650 ABS Sports Motorcycle – Features and Specs
Clean emissions
To meet Euro4 emissions requirements, several adjustments were made to the intake and exhaust system components, resulting in increased intermediate torque while preserving the strength of the previous model.
Newer tires provide better handling.
The new Dunlop Sportmax Roadsport 2 assists in tire handling.
Passenger comfort has improved.
Increased passenger comfort is provided by thick urethane (approximately 5 mm thick in the center, 10 mm thick on the sides) and wide sides through the rear seat.
Color TFT devices
The new all-digital TFT color instrumentation, the first for Kawasaki in the 650cc class, gives the cockpit a high-tech, sophisticated look. The new meter also has capabilities that were not accessible to the previous model.
Bright sheet for headlamp
With a two-piece design (unlike the three-piece Z900 cowl) that sets the color components high to create a lighter image, the headlamp cowl is crisp and more compact. The Sugomi design is enhanced with a strong chin spoiler, modified meter cover, and more forward-tilting lines.
Assist & Slipper Clutch
The Assist & Sleeper Clutch combines two types of cams (an assist cam and a sleeper cam) to hold the clutch hub and the operation plate together or separately, based on racing action data.
The assist cam acts as a self-serving mechanism in normal operation, pulling the clutch hub and operating plate together and compressing the clutch plates. It reduces the overall load of the clutch spring, resulting in a lighter clutch lever when using the clutch.
Dual Throttle Valves
To produce a high power level, the late model sports motorcycles sometimes feature large bored throttle bodies. When a rider rapidly opens the throttle on a large diameter throttle, however, complete torque response can be significant. Dual throttle valve technology was developed to improve engine performance while reducing engine response.
Models with dual throttle valves have two throttle valves per cylinder: in addition to the primary valves, which are physically connected to the throttle grip and measured by the rider, the ECU opens and shuts the second set of valves which Intake controls airflow accurately. To ensure a natural, linear response.
Economical Riding Indicator
Kawasaki models can reach the highest fuel efficiency level thanks to the management of high-precision electronic engines. Throttle usage, gear selection, and other factors controlling the rider, however, significantly affect fuel consumption. An all-new Economical Riding Indicator is a feature that shows when current riding conditions are using petrol. The device continuously analyzes fuel usage regardless of vehicle speed, engine speed, throttle position, or other riding conditions. An “ECO” indicator appears on the instrument panel’s LCD screen when the fuel consumption for a particular speed is low (i.e., the fuel efficiency is high). Fuel consumption can be reduced by riding with the “ECO” signal on.
