Kawasaki has posted a preview of its new models to be released in the U.S. on its official website. The models to be unveiled at 10pm on October 1st (Japan time) are thought to be the new Ninja 1100SX SE and Versys 1100, but will they turn out to be the same?
Will the Ninja 1000SX have an increased engine displacement and adopt an electric suspension?
As already reported by Webike Plus, Kawasaki is rumored to be preparing a new Ninja 1100SX with an increased engine displacement as a 2025 model. In addition, it is thought that the Ninja 1100SX SE equipped with electronically controlled suspension will also be added to the lineup.
The crossover tourer Versys 1000 series, which uses the same engine, will also be updated to the Versys 1100. The electric suspension of the Ninja 1100SX SE will be made by SHOWA, just like the Versys 1000SE, and it appears that neither vehicle will use radar sensors.

A predicted CG of the Ninja1100SX. The market code may change from the current ZX1002 to ZX11. By the way, the old ZX-11 (ZZ-R1100) was a 1052cc inline-4, but will it surpass the displacement of the previous generation?
Versys 1000SE (Kawasaki, 2,046,000 yen). The basic structure of the Ninja 1000SX is combined with a long type electric suspension and a long windscreen. Will this also be an 1100?
