Engine

The Honda CBX1000 featured a 1047 cc six-cylinder engine with 105 hp. Weighing 247 kg (dry), the CBX 1000 is capable of accelerating from 0-100 km/h in around 5 seconds and reaching a top speed of 218.8 km/h. The Kawasaki, also known as the “Six” has an inline six-cylinder engine with about 121 hp from 1286 cc. With a weight of 297 kg (dry) it was slightly heavier than the Honda, but was still capable of accelerating from 0-100 km/h in about 5 seconds and reaching a top speed of 223.6 km/h.

Design

The Honda CBX1000 had a distinctive design, with its six tailpipes coming together in a six-in-two system, and a look with angular, aggressive lines. By contrast, the Kawasaki Z 1300 had a sleeker, rounder look, with a distinctive twin headlamp and aerodynamic fairing that helped improve stability at high speeds.

Performance

Both bikes were considered high-performance models at the time, and each offered advanced features to improve handling and riding stability. The Honda CBX1000 had an adjustable rear suspension, while the Kawasaki Z1300 in 1983 introduced a fuel injection system, an advanced feature for the time, which increased the bike’s performance in power and torque.

Ultimately, the choice between the Honda CBX1000 and the Kawasaki Z1300 would depend on the rider’s personal preferences. The CBX1000 had more aggressive, angular lines with a unique exhaust sound that many fans compared to the sound of an F1 car, while the Z1300 had a look focused on elegance and with more power. Both were legendary motorbikes in their day, and each left a lasting mark on motorcycling history.
