Kawasaki Z650 Variant and Price List

The Kawasaki Z650 is offered in a single fully-loaded variant in India - the Z650 ABS - priced at Rs 7,25,960 ex-showroom. Unlike some manufacturers who strip features across variants to create price separation, Kawasaki keeps it simple: one spec, every feature included.

That single variant gets you the full TFT colour display, KTRC traction control, dual-channel ABS, full-LED lighting, Bluetooth connectivity with RIDEOLOGY app support, and a factory quickshifter option (available as an accessory). There's no base-spec trim to worry about.

The sole colour option for the current model year is Metallic Matte Dark Gray paired with Metallic Spark Black - a dark, aggressive combination that suits the Z650's Sugomi design language perfectly. Kawasaki has historically offered a more vibrant Candy Lime Green variant in international markets, but the Indian lineup currently carries only the dark colourway.

For buyers considering the family, the Z650RS is the neo-retro sibling sharing the same 649cc engine and frame but wearing classic round headlight and wire-spoke wheel styling. It's priced at Rs 7,69,000-7,83,000 depending on model year and is a genuine alternative if the streetfighter aesthetic doesn't appeal.

On-road prices vary significantly by state due to RTO tax differences. Expect Rs 8.33 lakh in Delhi, Rs 8.49 lakh in Mumbai, Rs 9.08 lakh in Bangalore, and Rs 9.37 lakh in Chennai. The variance between Delhi and Chennai is nearly Rs 1 lakh - state RTO rates matter more than most buyers realise when budgeting.

EMI for the Kawasaki Z650 starts at approximately Rs 13,406 per month at an 8.5% interest rate with a standard down payment, rising to Rs 19,878 per month at shorter tenures. Most Kawasaki dealers can arrange financing through their banking partners, and Kawasaki India occasionally runs zero-cost EMI offers during festive seasons. If you're comparing the Z650 against the Honda CB650R, note that the CB650R is priced approximately Rs 1.2-1.5 lakh higher on-road - a meaningful difference that buys you USD forks and an inline-four engine note, but not the TFT cluster.

Frequently Asked Questions

QHow many variants does the Kawasaki Z650 come in?
The Kawasaki Z650 comes in a single variant in India - the Z650 ABS - priced at Rs 7,25,960 ex-showroom. All features including TFT display, KTRC traction control, dual-channel ABS, and full-LED lighting are standard. There is no stripped-down base variant.
QWhat is the difference between the Kawasaki Z650 and Z650RS?
The Kawasaki Z650 (Rs 7.26 lakh) and Z650RS (Rs 7.69-7.83 lakh) share the identical 649cc parallel-twin engine, trellis frame, and all mechanical components. The difference is entirely aesthetic - the Z650 has a sharp streetfighter look with a multi-LED headlight, while the Z650RS wears a retro round headlight, wire-spoke wheels, and classic colour options.
QWhich Kawasaki Z650 variant offers the best value for money?
Since the Kawasaki Z650 comes in only one variant at Rs 7,25,960, the value question becomes Z650 vs Z650RS. The standard Z650 offers better value at Rs 43,000-57,000 less on-road while delivering identical mechanical performance. Unless the neo-retro styling of the Z650RS specifically appeals to you, the Z650 is the sharper financial choice.
QDoes the Kawasaki Z650 get dual-channel ABS on all variants?
Yes - the Kawasaki Z650's single variant comes with dual-channel ABS as standard. There is no non-ABS version sold in India. The system works across front and rear independently, providing reliable braking performance on the mixed road surfaces common to Indian riding.
