presentation of the Z 1000 SX 2013

since the discontinuation of the big ZRX 1200 roadsters (except in Japan), there's been no big, road-leaning machine in the Kawa range. A pity, since the other Japanese manufacturers still keep a representative in their catalog. Admittedly, the cold shower of the Z 750 S may have tempered the ardor and desires of the Z family, but Kawa is back with a much more substantial and surprising machine. It's the big, bad, disturbed and disruptive Z 1000 that's been chosen to take on the role of tourer. But this Z 1000 SX goes a long way.

it's not a fork head like the Fazer or Bandit, but a full fairing. With its big eyes and sporty face, it looks like an extrapolation of the ER-6 F, and even a revival of the expression of the ZRX 1200 S. The two-tone paintwork is both very expressive and seriously successful. With this all-round package, the Z 1000 SX considerably extends the roadster's range of action, especially as it also features a large, 3-position adjustable windscreen, large passenger handgrips, and a large, comfortable rear seat.passenger grips, twice as much space under the saddle as on the standard Z, a larger 19-liter fuel tank, and improved seating for the crew. The technical specifications are those of the Z 1000, so as to retain all the spirit and expression of the streetfighter of the hottest neighborhoods.

Bonne moto en road trip
French Francisco63 Model 2011
I'm very happy with my Z1000SX Tourer, it's a bike with enough torque even with 2 riders. The top speed isn't excessive but it's enough to make you lose your license, but on winding roads and mountain roads... A real treat! Rating : 4/5

Hi, can you dismount a 2012 z1000 sx without the abs?
And how much does it make in original power
Thanks Rating : 5/5

To unlock it, two conditions must be met: the bike must be at least Euro3 approved, and it must be fitted with ABS. Otherwise, it's forbidden. Rating : 5/5

very pleasant bike to ride solo or as a duo
nice line between a zx10 and a z1000 it's really found its place good handling if I had to add a small downside 10 more horses would be nice Rating : 5/5
French Model 2013
i've been riding a Z750R for almost 4 years now, and I've had a blast with this bike, a real mountain bike with the look of a bad-ass roadster, revisited in manga style. At the time, I'd hesitated to go for the 1000, but now I've landed on a super occasion, which I can't turn down! And yet I've really enjoyed riding it over the last few years! Provisional verdict on the 1000: A beautiful bike, with a thrilling riding feel, which combines comfort (fairing, bubble) and handling, without having renounced its origins: the joyriding experience! Rating : 5/5

exceptionnelle quasiment de partout
French Model 2013
after a zrx1200 in full, then a big GT, back to the roots of the pretty bike, capable of doing everything and doing it well or even very well, it pushes, it holds fire of gods, I have the impression to take me for eddie lawson !!!!! and it brakes well, road holding impec, but the only drawbacks ....... beware of license points, which are likely to be lost very quickly with such a bike, as it takes to many turns, and secondly, the passenger shouldn't suffer from lower back pain like on a hyper sport bike, even though it was originally designed more for touring.the lady behind me can only tolerate half the kms that she could with the zrx, which is a bit annoying. as a solution, I've added the kawa top case with backrest, and now mom doesn't complain as much about the kms, but goodbye to the devastating look of my kawa. after the two of us go for a ride, I dismantle everything and set off for a hike.
signed the 52-year-old tchoua Rating : 5/5
Un peu haute
French Model 2013
A good, fairly versatile bike, but with a somewhat high center of gravity. This limits handling in town and at slow speeds.
But you get the hang of it...
On the road, the seat height gives the impression of being on a large road trail (like a TDM) rather than a sporty GT.
The engine is generous, but almost too quiet-sounding.
Recovery is excellent.
Rear-wheel braking: a little too gentle.
Overall, I'd say 15.5/20 for its very KAWA engine. Rating : 4/5
Que du bonheur...
French Model 2013
I just bought one. In Canada it's a Ninja1000 and it's full (138hp).
I'm going to have a serious break-in period, but it's a real pleasure...
It's got a hell of a mouth, a super-pleasant riding position and a super-pleasant engine noise.
It handles really well and responds to the slightest throttle :-).
What more can I say?
I love it:-) Rating : 5/5
kawa27
French KAWA27 Model 2011
I've never experienced the vibrations some people have mentioned. Chest protection is impeccable, and there's no wiggle at helmet level when riding low. Fuel consumption between 6 and 6.8, mid-city, mid-country, with brisk acceleration. More expressive engine than a Honda (Cb100r and/or cbf). Abs braking recommended. Rating : 4/5

I had to chase the bike only to discover that it was the kawa 1000 nacked, frankly it's beautiful Rating : 5/5

Hello Gilou,
i'm about to sign for
an X1000SX. I rode for 3 years with an unbridled fazer 1000 that gave me 150hp. It was a good machine, but now it's out of fashion.
Are you really happy with this new machine?
With pleasure; Daniel Rating : 5/5

bonjour Daniel, I find this bike very beautiful indeed but I haven't yet taken the plunge and bought it. I'm currently riding a 2011 xj6 diversion that I bought new. Rating : 5/5

French Mandra Model 2011
Superb bike, which I've had for a short time.
Excellent overall, with a few irritating details, such as the bubble that doesn't protect my shoulders (I'm 1.72m tall), even in top gear, the absence of a gearshift (present on Suzuk'!) and vibrations in the buttocks (saddle, shock absorber adjustment?) at certain speeds.
Last but not least, the salespeople boast (as they do for a living ;-) of its moderate appetite, but it does oscillate between 7 and 9L/100, with some acceleration from time to time...

Well, it's great all the same, with generous torque and breathtaking acceleration :)))
Happy driving! Rating : 5/5
