Kawasaki announced on January 6th, that it would be honouring 50 years of the Z models with new Limited Edition models. With only 50 units of each model coming to Canada, these are sure to be sought-after motorcycles for 2022. Expected arrival for the limited edition models will be February of this year in dealerships.

In 1972, Kawasaki Motors introduced a new era of performance motorcycles with the Z1, this model solidified the company within the motorcycle industry. With its impressive 903 cc inline-four, the Z1 not only became the most powerful Japanese bike of its time, but also set a new standard for performance within the brand. Fifty years later, the Z family remains a staple of Kawasaki’s lineup. To celebrate, Kawasaki has announced its very limited edition models paying homage to the past 50 years of the Z.
