Kawasaki has made significant improvements over the 2006 model of the Z1000. The engineers went back to the drawing table and set out to improve four main aspects of the bike: engine, chassis, riding position and styling. They have achieved great success in most of these although the styling is arguably challenged but in line with the Z1000’s unique features.
