I believe the Z will out perform the RX4 and it weighs less also. Plus you receive a longer and more beneficial warranty. (It doesn’t come with luggage & mounts)
CSC May have to reduce the RX4 selling price further to be competitive! 
Good Luck

The Z400 definitely throws a wrench in the Chinese bike market. It's a damn good bike and engine in the sub 5k price range. Not quite an apples to apples comparison being a sport naked vs an ADV bike (your weight comparison), but if you wanted something for road duty... No contest.
What I am interested in seeing is if Kawasaki releases the rumored Versys-X 400, and what the MSRP on that would be. I can't imagine it being much higher than $6000. That would not be a hard choice to make for most people. The RX4 would have to go sub $5k to even be a slight consideration.
