Overview
The Kawasaki Z400 ABS is a naked motorcycle produced from 2019 through 2026. The 2026 model uses a 399 cm³ liquid-cooled parallel twin making 45 hp (34 kW) and 38.0 Nm of torque at 8,000 rpm; its wet weight is 165 kg.
The 785 mm seat height gives the Z400 a relatively low seating position, while its 165 kg wet weight should make low-speed maneuvering manageable. Peak torque arrives at 8,000 rpm, so reaching the engine’s strongest pull calls for revs. ABS helps prevent wheel lock under hard braking, and the assist-and-slipper clutch helps control the rear wheel during hard downshifts.

Pros and cons
Advantages
ABS braking
ABS is fitted to both the front and rear brakes, helping reduce the chance of wheel lock during hard stops.
Slipper clutch
The slipper function helps keep the rear wheel calmer when downshifting aggressively.
Low seat
At 785 mm, the seat can make it easier for riders to get their feet down at a stop.
Things to consider
Chain final drive
The chain needs periodic cleaning, lubrication, and adjustment.
