Kawasaki Z650RS Variants and Prices in India 2026

For 2026, Kawasaki India offers the Z650RS in a single fully-loaded Standard variant priced at Rs 7.83 Lakh (ex-showroom). There are no stripped-down or premium trims - every Z650RS comes with dual-channel ABS, an assist and slipper clutch, LED lighting all around, a fully digital instrument cluster, and the 649cc parallel-twin engine as standard equipment.

The single-variant strategy keeps things simple for buyers. You pick your colour - Metallic Ocean Blue for 2026 - pay Rs 7.83 Lakh ex-showroom, and that's it. There are no optional packs or accessories bundles to navigate. Kawasaki previously sold the 2025 model at Rs 7.69 Lakh, so the 2026 update added Rs 14,000 to the price, mostly covering E20 compliance costs.

On-road prices vary significantly by state due to RTO charges:

  • Delhi: approximately Rs 8.83 Lakh
  • Mumbai: approximately Rs 9.07 Lakh
  • Bangalore: approximately Rs 9.62 Lakh

The steep Bangalore on-road price (Rs 9.62 Lakh) reflects Karnataka's higher road tax rates on premium motorcycles. Delhi buyers get the most attractive on-road pricing thanks to lower RTO charges. EMI options start from around Rs 24,000-27,000 per month depending on the lender, down payment, and tenure - most dealers offer 3-year financing at 8-10% interest.

If you're comparing the Z650RS value proposition against rivals: the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 starts at roughly Rs 3.06 Lakh - nearly half the price - but makes significantly less power. The Triumph Trident 660 at around Rs 8.96 Lakh offers more power (81 PS) but less retro styling appeal. Within the 650cc retro twin space, the Z650RS is the only Kawasaki option, which means no variant dilution and a clear identity. For buyers who want the Z1 look with modern mechanicals, this is the one and only configuration available.
