What the weight numbers tell you

Using a model-level wet weight comparison, the Kawasaki Z125 Performance is lighter than about 90.8% of 60 Kawasaki naked bikes with compatible weight data.
A full tank is not weightless: the 2.91 US gal (11 L) listed capacity works out to approximately 18.1 lb (8.2 kg) of gasoline. This is an estimate rather than a Kawasaki curb-weight specification.
Weight is not identical across every model year in this page. Use the year-specific section rather than assuming one figure applies to every Z125 Performance.
