Kawasaki has introduced special 50th Anniversary edition units of its Z series motorcycles. The Kawasaki Z650, Z900, Z650 RS and Z900 RS are draped in a special paint scheme, commemorating the introduction of the Kawasaki Z1 in 1972.
The 50th Anniversary edition Z650 and Z900 motorcycles get a special Firecracker red paint job. From the bodywork to the wheels, red is the predominant colour on these bikes, with white and black stripes running across their length. The Kawasaki and Z logo are finished in a gold colour and there's a special 50th Anniversary edition badge on the tank.
The Kawasaki Z650 RS and Z900 RS get a two-tone, Candy Diamond brown paint, gold wheels and a pillion grab bar as standard. A special 50th Anniversary logo is pasted on the tanks of these bikes as well.
Besides these cosmetic differences, the Z650 Z900, Z650 RS and Z900 RS are mechanically identical to the standard models.
While there's no word yet, we expect Kawasaki to launch a few of these 50th Anniversary bikes in India.
