Overview

The Kawasaki Z 800 Sugomi Edition is a naked motorcycle for the 2026 model year. Its liquid-cooled, four-stroke inline-four has a displacement of 806 cm³ and produces 83 Nm of torque at 8,000 rpm; the motorcycle weighs 242 kg.

The 833 mm seat height puts the rider relatively high, while the 242 kg weight can make low-speed maneuvering more demanding. The front fork and rear shock both allow adjustment of rebound and spring preload, so suspension response can be tailored to the rider and road.

Pros and cons

Advantages

  • Adjustable suspension

    Rebound and spring preload adjustment at both ends let riders tune the suspension to their preferred feel.

  • Twin front brakes

    The two 310 mm front discs and four-piston calipers provide substantial braking hardware.

  • Fuel injection

    Fuel injection with dual throttle valves meters fuel electronically rather than relying on carburetors.

Things to consider

  • High seat

    At 833 mm, the seat height may make it harder for shorter riders to put their feet down securely.

  • Heavy at low speeds

    The 242 kg weight can take more effort to manage during parking and tight, slow maneuvers.

  • Chain final drive

    The chain needs periodic cleaning, lubrication, and adjustment.
