POWER & PERFORMANCE

Predatory Instinct: A fierce, lightweight supernaked built for the streets.

• ENGINE - Legendary Sport Performance: Exciting power, smooth response and abundant low-end torque is produced by the same class-leading Parallel Twin engine as the Ninja 400 sportbike.
• CLUTCH - Assist & Slipper: A compact clutch assists with a light feel at the lever and a wide engagement range for confident control. A back-torque limiting slipper function helps prevent rear-wheel hop when downshifting.

Z STYLING

All Eyes on You: Taking cues from its Z brethren, the unmistakable streetfighter styling complements an aggressive attitude.

• BODYWORK - Aggressive & Agile: Edgy, minimalist bodywork is influenced by Sugomi, a design that inspires sharp styling, dynamic performance and a distinct silhouette.
• FRONT COWL & VISOR - Sporty Design: The angular design of the front cowl is complemented by a compact, dark meter visor that adds to the aggressive looks.
• LIGHTS - Modern LED Headlight, Taillight & Brake Light: Quad LED headlamp is highly visible and offers significant brightness and a wide illuminated path.
• FRAME - Exposed Trellis Frame: Similar in design to that of the Ninja H2, the trellis frame design adds to the technical and lightweight image in distinct supernaked style while delivering a balanced riding experience for light and easy manoeuvring with excellent capability at highway speeds.
• COCKPIT - High-grade & Modern: Stacked instrument cluster features a clean and easy-to-read analogue-style tachometer and multi-function LCD screen with gear position indicator fuel and temp gauges, economical riding indicator and more.

HANDLING

Agile & Precise: The Z400 motorcycle was built to deliver light, predictable and natural handling for a confident riding experience.

• WHEELS - Sporty & Stylish: Stylish star-pattern 5-spoke wheels contribute to the Z400’s light weight and feature optimised lateral rigidity that benefits cornering and overall handling.
• REAR SHOCK - Fully Adjustable: 5-way preload adjustability lets riders adjust the stiffness and ride height to suit body weight or when riding two-up.
• SUSPENSION - Refined & Responsive: Plush suspension comes thanks to a ø41 mm telescopic front fork that’s tuned to provide progressive damping with a high level of feedback to the rider and responsive performance.
• BRAKES - Superb Stopping Power: Gripped by a balanced actuation dual-piston caliper, the Z400 boasts a large ø310 mm semi-floating petal front disc. Nissin’s ABS control unit is compact and lightweight, delivering precise control to help prevent wheel lockup under extreme braking.

ERGONOMICS

Comfort in Every Detail: The upright riding position, low seat height and wide handlebar put the rider in the ideal position for active control, facilitating dynamic, sporty riding.

• FOOTPEGS - Comfortable & Sporty: Sporty aluminium footpegs offer direct feel and are positioned slightly forward, offering a comfortable riding position and clear reach to the ground at stops.
• HANDLEBAR - Balanced & Wide: The wide handlebar adds leverage for dynamic control and contributes to easy manoeuvrability.
