We study the properties of kinematically disturbed galaxies in the SAMIGalaxy Survey using a quantitative criterion, based on kinemetry (Krajnovic etal.). The approach, similar to the application of kinemetry by Shapiro et al.uses ionised gas kinematics, probed by H{\alpha} emission. By this method23+/-7% of our 360-galaxy sub-sample of the SAMI Galaxy Survey arekinematically asymmetric. Visual classifications agree with our kinemetricresults for 90% of asymmetric and 95% of normal galaxies. We find stellar massand kinematic asymmetry are inversely correlated and that kinematic asymmetryis both more frequent and stronger in low-mass galaxies. This builds onprevious studies that found high fractions of kinematic asymmetry in low massgalaxies using a variety of different methods. Concentration of star forma-tion and kinematic disturbance are found to be correlated, confirming resultsfound in previous work. This effect is stronger for high mass galaxies (log(M*)> 10) and indicates that kinematic disturbance is linked to centrallyconcentrated star formation. Comparison of the inner (within 0.5Re) and outerH{\alpha} equivalent widths of asymmetric and normal galaxies shows a small butsignificant increase in inner equivalent width for asymmetric galaxies.
