India Kawasaki Motors has announced the launch of the MY27 Kawasaki Z1100, the flagship model in Kawasaki’s naturally aspirated Supernaked series. Embodying the essence of Sugomi—the fusion of power, precision, and intensity—the MY27 Z1100 combines a commanding presence, advanced technology, and exhilarating performance to deliver an engaging motorcycling experience. The MY27 Z1100 will be available in “Ebony/ Metallic Carbon Gray” with price starting at INR 12,79,000/- ex-showroom.
Carrying forward the legacy of the iconic Z series, the MY27 Z1100 represents the evolution of Kawasaki’s Supernaked DNA. Its launch celebrates more than five decades of the Z legacy, which began in 1972 with the introduction of the Kawasaki Z1. Renowned for its groundbreaking performance, reliability, and bold styling, the Z1 helped establish the foundation of Kawasaki’s enduring performance-oriented design philosophy.
Yutaka Yamashita, Managing Director of India Kawasaki Motors Pvt. Ltd., stated: “India is one of Kawasaki’s most important markets, and we are committed to bringing the excitement and distinctive spirit of Kawasaki motorcycles to Indian riders. The MY27 Z1100, one of the flagship models in our Z series lineup in India, reflects this commitment. We are particularly proud to continue offering this exceptional motorcycle at a highly competitive and accessible price.”
Positioned at the pinnacle of Kawasaki’s naturally aspirated Supernaked lineup, the Z1100 establishes its own distinctive identity through its aggressive stance, muscular character, and commanding Sugomi presence. While the Z900 emphasizes agility and accessibility, and the Z H2 represents Kawasaki’s supercharged performance offering, the Z1100 delivers its own compelling interpretation of the Supernaked experience.
At the heart of the MY27 Kawasaki Z1100 is a 1,099cc, liquid-cooled, inline four-cylinder engine, delivering 113.0 Nm of torque and 136 PS of power. Tuned to provide stronger low-to-midrange response and precise throttle control, the engine is designed to deliver seamless acceleration and commanding performance across the gears.
The MY27 Z1100 delivers more than outright performance. It brings together power, precision, and rider engagement to create a deeply involving experience. Every moment in the saddle reflects the connection between rider and machine, offering the excitement of responsive performance alongside the confidence and control needed to enjoy the ride.
With its distinctive styling, powerful engine, and unmistakable character, the Z1100 is designed for enthusiasts who value individuality, engineering, and the pure joy of motorcycling.
