W800 ABS 2026 vs Z650RS 2026

If straight-line speed is your priority, the Z650RS takes the lead. With 16 HP more than the W800 ABS, it offers a more spirited ride that will be noticeable on highway overtakes or track days. When it comes to agility, the Z650RS has a clear advantage. Weighing in 39kg less than the W800 ABS, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Bottom Line: While both are capable, the z650rs offers a superior power-to-weight ratio, making it the more exciting machine for experienced riders.
