The Kawasaki Z1100 is a motorcycle from Kawasaki. It is currently on sale. With a 1,099 cc engine it sits in the big-bike, 800 cc-plus class.
Power comes from a 1,099 cc 4-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that makes 134.1 bhp at 9,000 rpm and 113 Nm of torque at 7,600 rpm. Its bore is wider than its stroke (77 mm x 59 mm), a short-stroke layout that generally favours higher revs. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 615 PS per tonne; by that measure, its performance is at superbike level and rewards an experienced rider. It has electric start.
It has a 6-speed manual gearbox with a 1-down, 5-up shift pattern, and a chain carries drive to the rear wheel. Its slipper clutch lightens the lever and stops the rear wheel hopping when you downshift hard.
It is built around a Twin-Tube aluminium frame. At the front, the suspension is inverted fork with compression and rebound damping, and spring preload adjustability. At the rear, it is horizontal Back-link, gas-charged shock, rebound damping, and spring preload adjustability. Braking is by a 310 mm disc at the front and a 260 mm disc at the rear, with dual-channel ABS. ABS on both wheels keeps either tyre from locking under hard braking. It rides on 17-inch alloy wheels with tubeless tyres — 120/70 - ZR17 at the front and 190/50 - ZR17 at the rear.
The seat is 815 mm off the ground, which is about average and suits most riders. It weighs 221 kg ready to ride, which is heavy, so parking and tight U-turns need care. Ground clearance is 125 mm — low, so take speed breakers and steep ramps slowly. It is 2,055 mm long, with 1,440 mm between the axles. It carries 17 L of fuel.
Equipment includes 5 " TFT Display with Brightness Control, an LED headlamp, USB charging port, call and SMS alerts, gear position indicator, quickshifter, service due indicator, engine temperature indicator, low fuel indicator and low oil indicator. Safety equipment includes engine kill switch, side-stand engine cut-off, side-stand warning, hazard light switch, traction control and malfunction indicator. It has two riding modes: Mode 1 and Mode 2 and Mode 3.

Mechiee doorstep service
₹14,999
Mechiee's fixed doorstep service price for this model.
Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.
Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.
With Disc, 310 mm, 4 piston caliper and Disc, 260 mm, 1 piston caliper brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.
A clean, correctly tensioned and lubricated chain lasts longer and wastes less power. Check slack regularly, especially after riding in rain or dust.
A liquid-cooled engine relies on coolant. Check the level and look over hoses and the radiator for leaks or damage, and replace coolant as the owner's manual directs.
A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.
Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.
This bike runs 120/70 - ZR17 / 190/50 - ZR17 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.
Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.
