Kawasaki Z650RS officially launched in Malaysia, priced at RM37,200

Edaran Modenas Sdn Bhd (EMOS) has officially launched the retro motorcycle Kawasaki Z650RS for the Malaysian market, coinciding with the opening of the Kawasaki Puncak Alam showroom earlier today.

The Kawasaki Z650RS is powered by the same 649 cc parallel-twin engine found in the Ninja 650 and Z650 models, producing 67 hp and 65.7 Nm of torque.

Power is transmitted to the wheels via a six-speed transmission, complemented by an assist and slipper clutch.

The Z650RS features a high-strength steel trellis frame, along with a 41 mm front fork and a horizontal back-link rear suspension, allowing for wheel travel of 100 mm and 125 mm, respectively.

The braking system consists of dual 300 mm discs at the front paired with a two-piston caliper, and a single 220 mm rotor with a single-piston caliper at the rear.

Other features include a 12-liter fuel tank, an 820 mm seat height, LED front and rear lights, an analog speedometer with a digital LCD screen, as well as dual-channel ABS and Traction Control (KTRC) for added safety.

The Kawasaki Z650RS is priced at RM37,200 and is available at all Kawasaki All-Star showrooms across the country.

The Kawasaki Puncak Alam 4S center is the seventh facility in Malaysia and the second in Selangor operated by Puncak Alam Motoworld Sdn Bhd.

For 2025, MODENAS plans to establish 13 more Kawasaki 4S centers throughout Malaysia.
