Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports vs Kawasaki Z900

The Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports (2026) and the Kawasaki Z900 (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports is a adventure bike with 1,084 cc, 100.6 hp and 253 kg; the Kawasaki Z900 is a naked bike with 948 cc, 122.0 hp and 213 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 306.6 hp/ton versus 423.7 hp/ton. On this measure the Kawasaki Z900 is 38% ahead.

In the simulation the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 3.08 s and the Kawasaki Z900 in 3.13 s; the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports is quicker by 0.05 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 41.4 m for the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports (with ABS) and 43.7 m for the Kawasaki Z900 (with ABS). The Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports stops 2.3 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 202 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 234 km/h (manufacturer claim).
