Overview
The Kawasaki Z 800 e is a naked motorcycle from the Z family, produced from 2013 to 2016. The 2016 model has an 806.0 cm³, four-stroke V-Twin and a wet weight of 226.0 kg.
Its 834 mm seat height can make it harder for shorter riders to plant both feet, while its 226.0 kg wet weight takes more effort to maneuver at low speeds. The rear gas-charged shock has seven-way preload adjustment, letting you set its preload to suit the load, and the 17.00-liter tank carries the fuel for a ride; the chain final drive needs cleaning and adjustment over time.
