Built around Kawasaki's motorcycle platform, the 2026 Kawasaki Z1100Se ABS features a 1 cc engine configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 134 HP, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed, return shift gearbox and sealed chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 77.0 x 59.0mm with a 11.8:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Z1100Se ABS measures 487.3 kg (1074 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.27 HP/kg (3.64 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 32 mm (1.3 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 56 mm (2.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.5-liter (1.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
