Verdict On Kawasaki Z125

Z125 is a good 125cc bike that gives you a big bike feel. It has a good design and styling but in terms of looks, its rivals the Duke 125, CB125R, and MT-125 has an upper hand. One of the advantages of the Z125 is that it provides enough room for tall riders. The overall design is good and eye-catchy.

It produces the same amount of power as its competitors. As reported by some riders it has some vibration post 7,000 RPM. Kawasaki Z125 peak power comes at 10,500 rpm and it manages to pull a top speed of more than 110 KMPH. It doesn’t get a slipper clutch or Ride by wire throttle, like the MT 125 and Duke 125.

Like the other 125cc bike instead of a USD front forks it has a telescopic unit. The brakes are good and effective and it also has ABS which is a good feature for newbie riders. It weighs 146 KG and has a seat height of 815 MM.

Overall the Z125 is a good motorcycle but it misses out on some goodies and equipment like its competitors. It comes with a fuel-injected engine that is powerful and capable of offering engaging performance. If the Kawasaki Z125 is launched in India, it could be a successful bike for the brand in the entry-level segment.
