I've got a 2020 SXSE+.True story...the pillion is poorly designed.Sits too high.UNCOMFORTABLE for someone sitting there.

btw, the mirrors are the width they are because they are the exact same width as the rear of the bike with panniers on. ie, if the front doesn't fit neither will the rear...

I’ve had mine since 2019, she’s been all over Europe two up and covered 15000 trouble free miles. She’s now out of warranty so I had her remapped, this already very rapid and powerful engine is now producing 222bhp at the back wheel and it’s only had a mild remap! I then went to Italy two up for two weeks, again, trouble free and silky smooth and useable. Kawasaki nailed this thing, Japanese wizardry at its best👌🏽

Want to mention, that of course you have to readjust your headlight as a last step.

Good review. I've had one since 2019 and have ordered a new one in 2024. Great bikes with performance to spare, comfort for 2, integral luggage and handling that can keep up with sports bikes.

Meat potatoes..no gravy at all!! Lol i want one!

Hi Scotty. Great video thanks! I'm thinking of getting the same front screen for my Street Scrambler, does it make much difference at higher speeds?

Thank you for this video! I found it really helpful for installing heated grips on my Scrambler.

Very useful, thanks

Good review here. I have a wish list for more info and updates on the bike. Shame about the height of the passenger seat. Hoping for a taller windscreen but the higher Center of Gravity doesn't help around town handling. I wish you showed a side angle two up as I'm curious what your arm reach looked like and how much your back is leaned over the bars. Would need your heights, inseam, arm length added to really gleen perspective for others. Also curious about your bar risers source. Wish the H2 had a brighter blind spot light like the Pikes Peak style of warning. Later I also want to see Kawasaki incorporate braking pressure assistance through the ICU, if bike is closing in on an obstacle that it knows is not enough brake pressure (like the Tracer 9GT+ already has). Ultimately we need forward compatible software updates like this given it is just software not hardware changes needed on these expensive Bosch etc. systems. Let me know if you have more details. Thanks,

Great video. I noticed you using the quick shifter. Can you talk about that a little?

Make the rims accommodate tubeless tires and install ADV adventure tires and then you have a setup where u can plug a tire puncture fast and also handle dirt and gravel roads with ease.

Ima Put 50/50 Tires On My KLX300SM

I bought this here in Galveston. How many were given to the U.S.? I have yet to get an answer on that.

What a machine, maybe the k1600 has it beat as long distance cruiser

i wonder if there is any way to clean up that rear area and still have the sensor operational.

Hi there, great video. I’m about to install my own Mazdaspeed spoiler onto my rx7. Just wondering how you lined it up for drilling? did you match the bottom of the spoiler to the rear trunk lines or something else? Cheers

Oh goody, another video with a shitty electronic music intro….ughhhhhh

I came across a KZbin video a while back where a stock Gen 3 KLR was being tested on a dyno. At the back wheel the KLR produced 34 hp and 34 ft lbs of torque. The elevation where the dyno test was conducted wasn't indicated.

Oh I know what you mean about the lean on the kickstand lol. When I first put the kickstand down I thought, HOLY CRAP is it down 😅🤣

I have a '22 Adventure with abs. First thing I changed was the Mickey Mouse mirrors. I'd like to get heated handgrips because I do ride in the winter time as well. I commute to work and a round trip just shy of 100 miles and quite a bit of back country road at night and the extra lights are a definite plus! I actually loved the KLR so much I ended up selling my Ninja. I'm getting old so I don't need a crotch rocket anymore lol. Very good video and happy n safe riding 👍

Never seen anyone take it to 120 mph!? good to know it can do it.

I'm trying to talk myself out of buying aZ900. This video is not helping...lol

You were going to do more than saw you were going to cry and then threaten to kill yourself. This weeks are off the hook expensive.

Very good work except for one thing. The spark plug ratchet you used was a very bad choice. To much handle out there swinging around. All it takes is your dog, kid, wife, neighbor to startle you at the wrong moment and that handle slaps your tank or some other piece that did not require a wrench slap. Always use the smallest wrench you can use to get the job done, not the largest.

I wonder if you could do a review of the Yamaha Mt 09 and how it would compare to this bike? The red looks awesome!

nice fd congrats

Can you tell me what's written on the plaque near the front forks. Mine is not there yet the rivets are. thanks.

They sent 50 Z900's to Canada, i have one. But they made way more than 50 because several countries were given a certain amount to sell.

dude, you just don't have enough expertise for this.

awesome bike

Have a ninja h2 and zx14r but with all the tech on this one i just ordered one, hope i don't regret it. Great test

Have a '22 black and blue Z900. The engine is 948cc, 125hp. Love the red,wheels should be black. Super smooth, torquey 4 cylinder. Love it to bits. Nice video.

I bought this bike in January I think. Just getting back into riding after raising kids. Its very predictable. Like they call it a tractor of a bike. But I wanted on road/offroad capability. Just wished it had a bit more pep. The ability to lift the front wheel off the ground. But on the street, or National Forrest fire roads, it will do anything I ask. And it will tote a ton of crap. Great for moto camping, computing or off road play

I'm picking mine up next week. So excited !

I bought one I'm 2018, when they launched in SA. I regrettably sold it, but now the price has just become out of my reach. It has jumped from R280k (when launched) to app. R750k now. that's about R50k American dollars. Kawasaki why did you raise the price of this bike so much. It has become to unaffordable, that even Kawasaki South Africa won't bring in any units, unless you give them 50% deposit and be prepared to wait 6 - 12 months. I still think it's the best sports tourer, with the best features.....

i leave mine in road mode when i commute so that i dont lift the tire up on the 1-2 shift.

Were did you get bar riser

Damn that's basically a tablet for a headsup display lol

You filmed with a potato? If its keyless dosent that mean if you park on a supermarket someone can jump on and steal it?

I got this 2022 adventure with abs and I love to ride this bike....it is a great bike and I had the dr...this bike is for really seeing the world

Hello, how is the comfort for passenger? Is high seat? Awesome video, mate!

Great

I put my left foot on left peg, then swing my right leg up and over the panniers. Reverse process when dismounting.

Nice review, I recognized the roads right away lol. As a fellow Ontario resident who are you insured with and how bad are the rates? I'm considering a 1000sx next spring and will no doubt be needing to shop around for a decent rate.

Thanks Scotty. Great job. Good info. Liked & subscribed.

I put a Yoshimura end-can on mine - looks great.

Those roads look familiar. Where are they?

There should be a disclaimer. All measurements will be in metric. So if you are not familiar with it you won't know if you are talking length or weight of what you are talking about.
