Recently, Kawasaki has been updating its entire 650 line-up to be E20-compatible, with the Z650RS being the latest model to get this update after the Ninja 650 and Versys 650. Additionally, the 2026 bike features a new paint scheme. While the outgoing model came with a black and gold colourway, this new model wears metallic blue and gold. The graphics remain unchanged, and it still features those shiny gold wheels. The Z650RS remains mechanically unchanged and is powered by a 649cc parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine that produces 68hp and 62.1Nm, mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The peak torque figure is 1.9Nm lower than the outgoing model. Priced at Rs 7.83 lakh, it marks a premium of over Rs 14,000 over the outgoing model.
