Not bad, but I'm not sure it's a good idea to keep rehashing the classic Z look like this. In my view, they achieved the ultimate looks-wise in this style with the Z650. Obvious nods to that line with the tank and tail piece, and I like the way the clocks are set above the headlamp (also a nod to older styles). I don't think it's the worst looking engine, but smaller modern units lack presence. My Fazer is the same in that way. Not a lot they can do about that if they don't want massive weight though. It was just an air-cooled thing.
Frame looks slightly odd around the headstock, and a bit spindly, although there appears to be a fair amount of triangulation, which I guess will increase its strength.
It could be saved by strong power delivery, light weight and good handling, but I doubt that's what it will be about.
It doesn't make me want to up-chuck like some efforts, but maybe that's the best I can say about it, which must be frustrating for manufacturers who perceive there is still a market for this look. But maybe there isn't anymore. I'd still rather take a Z650 exactly as it looks and modify it to my own taste, wishing it was lighter and more powerful
I wouldn't want to change much about the look of these at all:
