I want some more Arizona ride's.. I'm in CT and I'm heading to Arizona Mesa and I'm looking for a 2024 Kawasaki z900 to bring with me or try and make a 5 Day ride I know it will probably be the death of me but I'm in no Rush.... thanks for the video...

How did you get blue one?

At 5’6” and 140lbs I dont mind the weight at low speed as long as Im riding it, but when its time to reverse out or in to a parking spot I have to hop off and push it, and thats way more scary than just riding at 1mph lol

Cool video I have exact same bike only thing I have problem with it is the seats on longer rides there hard for me my weight is 155 pounds and 5-7hieght and I feel balanced at low speed turning if I use the back brakes with throttle as I'm slowing and turning

How tall are you

Not sure if I would like having to turn my head left and right more to see whats behind me than the regular mirrors. But if you all like them that's your choice. I'm thinking of just sticking on round blind spot mirrors and be done with it and enjoy riding 😉

To give you another perspective on low RPM torque - when I first got mine - one time I accidentally forgot to downshift at a stop . When I started moving again - I had a little trouble because I was in 3rd gear . I was able to get going - I didn't choke down - then I realized I was in 3rd . It was hard to believe because I know I would have not been able to do that so easily with any other bike that I have ridden ...

Don’t see enough in this scheme

U still like the bike?

Best review I have seen some far on this bike. Thank you.

Not driving your motorcycle to keep the resale value up is like not banging your girl to keep her fresh for the next guy.

Gotta love riding in Tucson. Great review. I'll pick mine up in April!

Test rode a 2022 z900 a few days ago. Really good bike!

$7,400 you got a great deal. My 2022 was 9K. No rebates to be had.

People like In that bmw, I just drop a gear and disappear for a few then back down to speed limit and if I find them on my tail again I slow down a bit just to annoy them more lol

I am an old kawasaki fan - the first new street bike I ever bought was a KZ 750 1984 ( I was about 27 then ) . It was a light metal flake blue one with a dark blue pinstripe. I searched for hours and only found one or two of that color . 20 years ago I got a used 1984 KZ 550 LTD . Then in 2019 I got a red Z900 ( only has ABS ) . I liked it so much that I then got a blue 2020 just like yours . I have 1500 miles on it and about 6500 miles on the red one . I love them both - I am also 6 1 and about 200 lbs . I don't do tricks or anything but on the red 2019 bike - after the 600 mile break in, I always accelerated hard . Even so, I got 5000 on the rear tire before replacement . I almost never use the rear brake ... The fastest I have been is 145 MPH on both bikes . What about you ?

Nice honest review, soud

"80% of your stopping is gonna be coming from the REAR brake?" That road is a great ad for Arizona! Well, 'til about 2/3 of the way through.

Hey man, are you still reading these comments? I picked up a z900 a couple weeks ago, and I have some uestuons for you.

Nice bike,I plan on getting a bike next year was looking at the ninja 400,had a dirtbike when I was 17 been alot of years since I been on a bike so I figured I get the ninja 400,I'm 5.7 at 205 pounds but gosh this bike looks good,just hope I don't get board of the ninja hate to buy it then be wanting to get this I'm definitely not rich.

Thank you for doing this review. I have the 2019 Z400. I am thinking trading to the Z900. My biggest question...how is the seat? I am around your height and weight and after 45 min to 1 hour on the Z400 my groin area goes numb from the vibration. Do you have the same issues on the Z900?

You keep talking about the weight of this motorcycle. It's a 948cc bike @ 468 lbs. But, a Yamaha MT10 that is only 62cc larger weighs the same amount of weight. The weight isn't that bad. It's lighter than the Z1000 by +20 lbs and lighter than the Z800 by 41lbs.... Overall, great video thanks!

How many miles did you do your second oil change m8?

Hello again, I commented on this video 1 year ago. I just found this video again,... i did indeed wind up getting the Z900. In fact, mine is also ac2020 in candy plasma blue! 👍 Your review is spot on. In fact, as I write this I am at the 2000 mile mark as well.😁 I bought it April of 2021 and it's now October. The Z900 has met all my expectations except one..the tires. At 2K, the front tire is worn, scalped on the sides. I am not an aggressive rider by any means so it's a bit frustrating that I just spent over $400 on new tires, right at the end if the riding season. I will need to sort this out before I ruin my new Michelin Raod 5 tires, unless of course it was just a bad tire. But the Z is amazing. Cheers.

I WANT THIS BIKE SO BAD. IT LOOKS AND SOUNDS SO GOOD.

Any issues encountered with z900? Here in my country z900 rival is a cb650r when it comes to price. And some cb650r bikes has oil leak and vibration 6k rpm above.. And poor headlight..

The gearbox is a torque converter so ...

Stop lying you got the bike for $7700 plus restock fee $300 transportation fee $300 assembly fee 300 plus tax so your bike didn’t cost 7700

That blue looks 100x better than that green they put on the bikes.

95 pounds??? Is she bullimic?

This might be my next ride :-) ..... And yes I commute 85-kliks a day (round-trip). A 2011 CB650 (Hornet) is my present weapon of choice since I started riding again ;p. Bein' riding since 1984 :-). Thanks for the vid and you are so correct: Most reveiews are based on a few hours to a weekend...

Really

How’s the headlight riding at night? are the LED’s? Enjoyed the ride along, beautiful scenery.

Nice Bike, wanna sell it 😜

Very good 👍 review mate did you say $7,700 here in Australia 🇦🇺 is $14,500 on road we are getting ripped off wtf.ride safely watch out for the idiots on the road cheers.

Just got my 2020 plasma candy blue a few days ago. Super nice bike, I currently ride a yamaha road star silverado. 2 different world's but both fun. Just put on my radiator guard and fender eliminator coming soon with display shield to keep it from scratching up

wish yall get your dream bike

Terrible color

You didn't use 5th or 6th gear. What are your rpms on 6th going highway speeds like 75 mph ? Is its screaming at that speed or does it feel effortless and related?

Great review, very informative, ride safe

am contemplating between Z900 vs CBR650R vs Mt-09 tho, as the price range is the same here

$7700 pretty good deal ! Did you buy as a leftover?

Riding bicycles on a highway is so obnoxious.

Quick shifter?

Practically every time I stop for gas some young guy wants to take a picture of it.

what a waste of a good bike.tractor u need on them roads

The BMW rode your ass because you cut it off, then accelerated slowly. Then slowed down. You were more focused on providing content than riding in traffic.

Nice bike

I have this bike in green, I'm still running it in... We don't have the blue here in the UK. Looks nice.

Did you get this brand new? Or used?
