In this one I’m talking through the big question I keep getting: would I actually buy the 2026 Kawasaki Z900RS when I already own (and ride) a 2019 Z900RS? I’m genuinely stoked that Kawasaki are still giving the RS some love—because I’m a sucker for that classic look with modern manners—and I walk through my thoughts on what an “upgrade” really means when you already know the bike inside and out. I get into the mindset of buying vs. keeping: what changes would have to matter to me to justify swapping bikes, what I already like about my 2019, and the practical side of living with these things as a real-world rider. It’s less about hype and more about whether the updates would change my day-to-day experience enough to be worth the money. If you’re sitting on an older Z900RS and you’re tempted by the shiny new one, this is basically how I’d talk myself into it—or out of it—over a cup of tea and far too much bike browsing.
