The Kawasaki has introduced new limited-period discounts on two of its popular middleweight motorcycles, the Kawasaki Z650 and the Kawasaki Z650RS, making them slightly more affordable for buyers in India. The offers are valid till 28 February 2026 and are similar to the New Year discounts that were announced earlier.
The Kawasaki Z650 now gets a discount of Rs. 27,000, bringing its effective ex-showroom price down to Rs. 6.99 lakh from Rs. 7.26 lakh. Meanwhile, the Z650RS receives a discount of Rs. 20,000, reducing its price from Rs. 7.83 lakh to Rs. 7.63 lakh (ex-showroom). These price cuts make both motorcycles more appealing in the premium middleweight bike segment.
Both bikes continue to share the same mechanical setup. They are powered by a 649cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine that produces 67bhp. However, there is a slight difference in torque output. The Z650 produces 64Nm, while the Z650RS delivers 62.1Nm. The motorcycles are known for their smooth power delivery, refined engine performance, and comfortable riding posture, making them suitable for both city rides and highway touring.
The Z650 follows Kawasaki’s aggressive naked streetfighter design, offering sharp styling and modern features. On the other hand, the Z650RS focuses on a retro design inspired by classic Kawasaki motorcycles, making it a great choice for riders who prefer a vintage look with modern performance. Recently, the Z650RS also received new colour options and E20 fuel compliance updates.
With these discounts, Kawasaki is aiming to attract more enthusiasts looking for a premium middleweight motorcycle with strong performance, good styling, and reliable engineering. Buyers interested in either of these bikes can benefit from the offer before the deadline.
