Hi Mick, I bought a brand new Z900RS SE two weeks ago. As I live Victoria and 600 kilometres from Melbourne it was delivered by ‘dedicated Motorcycle transport. When it was rolled off the truck it had 800 metres on the odometer. Just enough to do a pre-delivery and make sure the gears changed and the brakes stopped it. I am 69 and this is my 29th Bike. Have to say it is the best bike I have ever owned. Handling and braking exceptional. Have ridden my friends standard RS and it is an exceptional bike as well.

That is awesome Jeff, I love the SE mate. So great to hear and thank you for sharing. I am guessing a lot of rides this week? Enjoy the new ride mate.🏍👍

I have seen lots of videos speak about been stationary at an intersection and the delay when you want to pull out inbetween the traffic gap and not one (not that i have seen yet) follow up on another video or within that video saying to get one of these throttle controllers. I don't care about going 0 - 100kph of how quicker it may get to 100kph, all i care about is getting my car moving from 0, without the "lag", 1.5-2seconds, to pull out safely. it may not seem long but with traffic it is significantly important. Seeing this video and others about how it feels (the response when at a stop to going), its improved, if it really does make a difference, why don't the manufacturers do this in the programming of the ECU? so on that note, thank you for this video and I will just have to buy one today. :)

*Thanks, “Aussie Kawiman” Excitement is building as I await the delivery of my KAWASAKI Vulcan 650 Cafe (ABS) on Tuesday, December 19, 2023. I plan to hit the road along AH1 from Bangkok to Northern Chiang Mai, covering 680 km. My trusty ‘Thumper,’ a Made in INDIA =RE= Meteor 350, has served me well over the past two years, exploring sunny Thailand despite its nasty vibrations. However, it’s time for a change, bidding farewell to the 350 cc ROYAL ENFIELD. Dealing with chronic Wry Neck (Torticollis) and Neuropathy, I’ve decided to opt for the smoother ride of the 650 cc KAWASAKI cruiser, trusting in the ‘KAWA’ Ninja engine and KAWASAKI’s renowned legacy.
