2024 Z500 | ALL EYES ON YOU| Official Action Video

All eyes are on you when riding the all-new Z500 supernaked. With distinctive bodywork and a powerful 451cc engine, this aggressively styled streetfighter is for those who are not afraid to be seen.

[@chappierides2237]

this one surely got my attention 😮

[@rickg.5171]

We might not all agree with the styling but it's refreshing to see a return to sensible size bikes. The sixties and seventies offered great half liter rides.

[@carlosn3511]

Woooooo.. Beautiful. this model is really something special

[@chrisdadigger1018]

500s are nice. You can have a blast on a 500.

[@trdadam2325]

you mean a 451cc 😆

[@Laceta2]

Kawasaki in the past few years really said "Shut up and Watch" 😂

[@Thiago-0666]

The bike looked beautiful, my plans are to get a CB500F, but when I saw the Z500 I really liked it, it came with a TFT digital panel, something that was missing in the Z400, but here in Brazil it should come with 52 HP of power.

[@KevinSubba]

When is it coming to India 🇮🇳?

[@chriscarter9875]

Think I see what Kawasaki is doing. If I’m right , we will see an updated 14R for sure. They did add a lot of useless models in my opinion. But also added more style to models that was out years ago. I still have the 1994 ninja 500. The updated 500 looks much sharper . Kawasaki seems to also be adding street fighter design with everything as well. We might see a 1441cc street fighter with a nice 6 headlight design but shaped much more narrow and give it more of a mean appearance single sided swing arm. Then the updated 14r will probably have all new digital dash, krt paint scheme which I’m shocked they haven’t went with that color yet for it, forged wheels possibly and other nice things to make it a little bit lighter . Might have the same fork design found in the current 10R Color choices be metallic spark black. Same color found on the 2012 14R. Red and stealth gray and then Kawasaki green in krt form Make it happen Kawasaki

[@nusaambrozic6634]

Can't wait to buy it

[@Sumrin3971]

I like that headlight

[@ktkace]

remember when the Z1000 was a 1043 CC motor? me neither. 451 identifying as a 500 is me 5 foot 6 normie identifiying as a 6 foot chad.

[@Carlisho]

And the Z900 being a 948cc What happened to Kawi 😭

[@isaac_bear]

I understand rounding, but this one is a stretch. Especially with their 400 being a 399. What’s the point of a having a 400 & a 450 in the same line up?

[@SuzukiRiderlv426]

kawasaki feeling cf moto breathing on its neck

[@SrLaggaFitt]

Is it serious that it comes with conventional telescopic bars? and it has the same 45 hp? but if they are almost 100 cc

[@shubhamdubey2277]

Is this bike comes with inline 4 engine or another ?

[@Motoboo_Marine]

Most likely the 450 from the eliminator

[@praveenwesley5186]

parallel-twin

[@stevenjameswyatt2032]

As the modern take on the iconic GPZ500 it should be at least 499cc,then I would definitely but one.

[@GamingThiyib]

Already in love

[@latituderider]

This is cool, truly, but calling a 451cc as a 500 is really a stretch even by Japanese nomenclature standards. Call it a 450 and own it. 🦾

[@sunsinger970]

Hondas 500 is just a 473 They all usually just round up, not to the nearest, up

[@Carlisho]

Also Kawi themselves are known for UNDER selling their engines, in the Z lineup itself their Z900 is actually a 948cc. Why would they do this to themselves?

[@shivamarya5225]

I mean z900 is a 948cc, they do the opposite as well so Kawasaki deserves it. 500 sounds a lot better than 450

[@blowndome]

@@shivamarya5225It’s much better to have extra CC than less, the Hayabusa is 1340cc but they don’t call it the GSX1350R. I guess it’s whatever rolls off the tongue easier.

[@ih8momjokes1]

They even went 451 instead of 449 to really show it's not a 450. bunch of scammers

[@exodo2226]

When will the Z500 arrive in Brazil?

[@luizskyline]

Acho que aqui ta mais pra uma Z300 novamente igual a Ninja ksks. Mas acredito que a Kawa não va decepcionar.

[@kenobi666obi]

Veramente BELLISSIMA 🖤💚🖤💚🖤💚

[@ilyanowa659]

Honestly I can't understand for what market is this. Like they have a 400 segment for 35kw riders, plus after the 650 that also can be for 35kw riders. Very confusing.

[@rayhan4502]

for people who want 500cc

[@knatternatter]

the 500 does also have 35kw, it doesnt make sense at all

[@audie-cashstack-uk4881]

It will replace the 400

[@ilyanowa659]

then its makes logic. But hope the future Z will not look like z500 cuz its ugly asfk, I own a 2022 Z900 and it makes me cry how does the z500 looks like. @@audie-cashstack-uk4881

[@trdadam2325]

cfmoto scared them with 450ss 😆

[@kumbanghitammotovlog]

Besttttt

[@aarontv1968]

Ang tanong, lalabas kaya to sa pinas?

[@christopherclement4516]

270° Crank?

[@wissawawongkrai9702]

Ready to fight with honda 500 Series 😊

[@ipanmie]

Z500RS next please

[@Carlisho]

They should had just updated the Z400 to this engine, no need for a completely new model.

[@pratapraidu7670]

Still the bloody box section swing arm

[@Keshlipwn]

What about the ninja500? :)

[@nasirmahmood6452]

Nice

[@abhishekshingate330]

Trying to create new segment of 500cc bikes segment with 451cc engine that's out-standing

[@oliverdiazdeleonmarquez165]

Hasta que no le cambien la horquilla de tradicional a invertida será opción para mi

[@joshzz28]

nice looking bike but I cannot get past the absence of USD front forks I mean come on its 2023 and even 150cc bikes come equipped with it

[@86183923]

When will the launch be?

[@VitorLopes.]

400cc 240 ? 😮

[@Riteshkumar-kr7dv]

When will kawasaki launch z100 the only kawasaki bike I may afford 😢

[@teteakhiangte6015]

So , are they gonna end the 400 and 650 twins and sum it up to twin 500 🤔

[@giuseppecalabrese]

E questa sarebbe la z400 4 cilindri che avevate promesso? Per favore questi prodotti sono per neopatentati

[@sugsy1368]

I hate z series but this one mind blowing.

[@faithgavin29]

Is this 4cylinder?

[@trdadam2325]

no

[@IntertwinedWish]

Twin

[@SydneeBernier]

Wow

[@arvin6606]

Need the naked version of zx25r and zx4r

[@arijitRC7]

It seems usd forks are banned in Japan, or atleast thats what the design team thinks.

[@sachinshahi2199]

You read my mind lol

[@bearcatracing007]

They add cost and that's not the point of these bikes!

[@nkri9716]

In indonesia, the CBU motorcycle over 250cc will be highly priced due to maximum taxes applied.

[@Nogitsune_Yako]

Z900 needs similar design

[@paullacey2999]

Nice video but you cant see the bike properly

[@rafflyraffly1832]

To kawasaki please make a z250 4 cylinder/ 270° / 360°

[@keithmartland6463]

I said three years ago, the next bike will be a 500, i just wish i put a bet on now.

[@memorablemoments001]

💚💚💚

[@AIENTERTAINMENT]

India launching or not

[@farrelllobo548]

Looks lit 😅

[@RMotos]

Uauuu

[@Mr.VIBESTER]

We can call it Z400 guys🌝

[@Alaska_MD]

Still the only manufacturer who can build a bike like this at 370 lbs... and only one who cares.

[@Stefan-Novikov-RB]

mt05 👍

[@adnanatrash1186]

Not even a USD fork in 2024? COme on Kawasaki are you guys really going to cheap out on such inexpensive part? And couldn't they paint the radiator black at the very least?

[@sachinshahi2199]

Looks like they just bump up cc and odometer everything looks like z 400 wtf is this

[@pongpipattamavichit6794]

sound effect like Yamaha MT VDO...

[@estrellagalicia01]

still no usd fork? c'mon 😂😂

[@haromt3]

..and single disk brake.

[@rayhan4502]

for 500cc that's very enough

[@-cfh-architector7963]

450 and have the same power with 400 45hp...? Wtf

[@itsturbotime2994]

Probably had to increase displacement to get same power because of increasingly tighter emission regulations.

[@trdadam2325]

​@itsturbotime2994 no they just limited it through ecu for UK weird licence system like a1 a2 and so on u still get the added torque just lower top rpm. aka lower hp and top speed 😢

[@chrishart8548]

I was hoping for at least 60hp like the old cb500s and the gpz500s

[@czierwo]

Curious what's the engine configuration. Sick of twins. All the same, and boring, sound like shit. 4 cyl?

[@FELONDUCK306]

bike looks tiny for a 500 its basically a z250 with a 500cc engine id rather get the cb500f because its alot more beefy and looks more rown up.

[@surgekiller]

そろそろＺ１０００も見たいのですが・・・

[@gelvanealmeida87]

Maior sentido e inteligência Kawasaki e Honda lançar uma Z400 e uma CB 400 nocs pra pegar a fariw das 350 a 450 q é um mercado maior q lançar 500 q é um mergulho menor

[@faithgavin29]

All eyes in other brand😥

[@The_Most_Elite]

bring z200

[@UnBoxMyBox]

Sounds like yamaha MT25 vibes 😅

[@itx483]

Me dá uma moto 😅

[@anthonysteinerv]

why not greeeeen

[@bearcatracing007]

Oh no I have officially become an old fart by say this 'my 1980 z500 looks way better' 😂😂😂

[@sureshchamuah3447]

Same boring 180 crank....

[@chanelbekasberkualitas748]

Mt is better...

[@RvLicious69]

if it's not 4 cylinders, IDGAF

[@sayansarkar852]

🥹💌 I LOVE YOU 💚 KAWASAKI NINJA 💚😘🥰

[@hotstep12345]

better get a cb500f

[@audie-cashstack-uk4881]

Bike doesn’t exist anymore check out Hondas 2024 range it’s now the hornet 500 the nx500 is dope

[@CristianoFénix-z4b]

So we’re trying to compete with Hondas 500cc line up. Yet we can’t win the wsbk because Ducati makes a V - 4. Give us a Ninja with a v-4 and cut the nonsense

[@cheemsburger6117]

Come on Kawasaki, even Suzuki is going for 270 crank, you can do better.

[@sombitdutta_icewillow9990]

Give USD forks😢

[@ALPHA-ks9wy]

worst advertisement

[@mckarthi6666]

That 180 digree crank is boaring mate

[@kamotebusher]

low quality swing arm not alloy
