presentation of the Z 1000 SX Tourer 2018

The Kawasaki Z 1000 SX is doing quite well in its Sport-GT emancipation. So much so, in fact, that it no longer looks like a derivative of the roadster, but has its own unique design. Sporty and muscular, powerful, user-friendly and with a longer range than the Z 1000, it's the perfect way to assert its character.

and, like so many models in the range, it doesn't forget to include the additional services - or rather, the packages - offered by its predecessor. In the Tourer edition, the Z 1000 SX is designed for weekend getaways and mischievous escapades, with a minimum of cargo to ensure comfort. On the right, the picnic; on the left, the pillow. There's no room for a tent, but what better way to dress up a summer's evening than under a starry sky. That's where the Pack Tourer comes in. With its two 28-liter suitcases, you can pack all the essentials. The capacity drops to 2x27 liters if you pack your gear in the inner bags supplied with the cases. You lose a little, but you pack a lot better. If that doesn't sound like much, just imagine packing a full-face helmet and stuffing the sides with 2 or 3 T-shirts.
As the Z 1000 SX Tourer is designed for the road, it is equipped with a GPS support. And it's also thinking about the scratches of certain jackets; hence the gel protection on the tank.

thus ready, this more travel-friendly Z 1000 SX is just waiting for a generous burst of energy to set off on a light frigate. Fiery with its 142 hp, it also intends to be safe with active cornering ABS and optimized 3-level traction control thanks to its inertial unit. No longer a true roadster and not yet a sportbike, the bike is appreciated for its rigorous handling and comfort worthy of its rank.

Coming back from Super GTs and Maxi-trails, I'm rediscovering the joys of motorcycling.
A curiosity test of the new vintage convinced me.
The 2018 Z1000 SX Tourer I just got is a machine that's not boring for a penny.
In 10000kms of Maxi Trails I must have done 20kms of trails.
This machine is very pleasant to ride and, what's more, very versatile.
All the electronic aids are useful and valuable.
And above all, what a sound this engine makes.
You can't get enough of it.
The original bubble has been replaced.
We'll just have to increase the front protection a little for the next vintage, and redesign the speedo block with an all-digital unit.
Add a ride-by-wire throttle for the speed limiter...
This machine has virtually no competitors on the market.
I really love it.

French Model 2018
New 2018 tourer version replacing my versys even if the z is slightly less comfortable it's much easier and more versatile too, whether for daily commutes or weekend jaunts less physical cornering than the versys more forward riding position but not leaning on the wrists allowing a better "ÀÂ ressentiÀÂ" of the front end two excellent bikes with a great engine the z being my preference for all these reasons Rating : 5/5
French Model 2018
super bike good for everything Rating : 5/5
French zozo78 Model 2017
Excellent road bike, I bought it with the tourer pack, which is very practical for vacations, I just need to change the winter bubble for a bigger one. In short, I don't regret my purchase, and if I had to do it all over again, I'd re-sign for the same one ^^ Its two weak points are the maintenance of the chain, which is a pain in the ass: there's no central unit and a double outlet that hinders access. And a speedometer that's hard to read in daylight because of its lack of contrast. Rating : 5/5
Very fun to ride, moderately priced. Convinced my wife to take up motorcycling as a passenger.Tourer version ideal for long weekends
Bravo Kawasaki
