Review Kawasaki Z900 SE 2025: Real Talk from 6 different riders

The Kawasaki Z900 SE is one of the long-time favorites among naked bikes. In 2025, it comes equipped with a refined Öhlins suspension, cruise control, and improved comfort.
But with less power and a classic design, can it really hold its own against modern power bikes?
In our comparison, we let six test riders have their say:
Is the Z900 SE a hidden gem – or technically outdated?
👉 How does it stack up against the Yamaha MT-09 SP, Suzuki GSX-S1000, or KTM 990 Duke?
👉 How does the suspension perform in real-world conditions?
👉 And who is this bike really made for?
