KAWASAKI Z1100 AND Z1100 SE INCOMING

For 2026, the Z family has grown teeth again, with the launch of the brand-new Z1100 and Z1100 SE – a pair of heavy-hitting supernakeds designed to sit at the very top of Team Green's naturally aspirated hierarchy.

Sugomi, if you've forgotten, is the design and riding philosophy first baked into the 2014 Z1000. It's about menace in the metal, aggression in the riding, and a sense of presence that borders on intimidating.

Kawasaki has carried that torch ever since, and the new Z1100s are billed as the fiercest expression of the idea yet. Just look at them – sharp LED eyes glaring, bodywork pulled tight around the motor, a new finned undercowl adding to the low, predatory stance. They're the sort of bikes that look fast even when parked outside a café.
