India Kawasaki Motor has introduced a new colour option for the Z900 streetfighter in the country. The new Candy Lime Green Type 3 colour joins the existing Metallic Spark Black shade that was available on the Kawasaki Z900 and is available at the same price of Rs. 8.50 lakh (ex-showroom, India). The new colour arrives just days after Kawasaki India announced a price hike across select motorcycles in its range for the new year. The list includes the Z900 that has received a price hike of Rs. 8,000 for the MY2022 version. Barring the new colour option, there are no other changes on the motorcycle.

The 2022 Kawasaki Z900 continues with the same styling and cycle parts. The model gets a sharp design that the company calls 'Sugomi' styling and brings a sporty stance to the naked motorcycle. The bike gets twin LED headlamps, a sculpted fuel tank, split seats, and an exposed frame, all of which make the Z900 a highly likeable motorcycle. The bike also sports a 4.3-inch TFT instrument console that comes with Bluetooth connectivity.
