Good comparison. Hopefully I can ride both.

Excellent video... This is a fab review, esp because I'm a sports bike, cafe racer rider too. Currently on an Enfield GT650... Similar 270 Ank Crangle 😂... Which is so nice and smooth. Here because I sat on a Bobber yesterday and I really must go for a test bimble.... I'm not far from Bristol so will be paying the dealers a visit! Subbed!

Well done Lara! I’m a 60 yr old man. So nice to see we can have an intelligent opinion from a young female rider. If this allows me to keep riding, got to be worth a look.

Glad to hear it's been reliable for two thousand miles 🤦

Is the 2023 or 24 base model improved over the 2021 model year? Base unit

I took one for a test ride a few days ago and COULD NOT STOP SMILING. I live in rural north Devon and most of my trips are very short so this makes so much sense. It will be delivered in 5 days. I'd already taken out the insurance even before engaging in the test ride. This is a TOTALLY DIFFERENT experience. Insurance is cheap, no VAT, no road tax and ridiculously cheap to charge up.

You can say all you want. The cat seems to approve, and I value its' opinion.

Hi Lara, just found your channel, so,glad I did. Would you consider (4 yrs on) reviewing the 2024 rally version of the fantic 500? Be gret to get your thoughtd as this is the next bike I’m thinking of getting. Cheers from a Brit abroad.

Supersport is quite enough on road 😊

Drives me nuts when even a european video is in miles, majority of people on this planet use kms

That was sadly the last ever Bristol Bike Show. They couldn't open it up again after the Plandemic, and the new road layouts in Bristol city centre have made it impossible. Wonderful memories of sitting outside The White Lion, watching the bikes roaring in and out of the show and round the centre. Great bands every year, and the crazy old lady dancers, never to be forgotten.❤

I'm looking forward to riding to Sicily and back to Norwich this year on mine, travelling light too. Do you still have yours?

The owner of the online publication Asphalt & Rubber raced a Kramer for a few seasons. I think they are built in North Dakota, USA.

I agree. I don’t like pannier and absolutely loathe top boxes. I’m a 90 degree (L) twin fanatic. I currently have a Supersport,950 and a RC51. I’m looking to move from US to Portugal and hope to ride in the Pyrenees too! I’ve been and walked in the Pyrenees loads of times but have always wanted to ride a bike on those roads.

you're an excellent reviewer! considering a 950s or a panigale v2 Bayliss, dunno. i've grown to love saddlebags on my Ninja 1000, so any aftermarket exhaust has to be kept low so i could use Ducati's panniers.

I'm amazed at how well thought out this whole operation is, considering all the charity groups that need to work with each other. Really impressive.

Just bought one.... pick it up tomorrow!

Hope you didnt pass any speed cameras.

What year / model SS is it ?

Just got the same bike, absolutely love it

Is there a way to learn more about the 690 Duke with the RC8 forks at 6:26 in the video? I’m quite interested in having a go at something similar with my 690

They sound awesome 👌

Makes me want to take up racing with SupermonoGB! Would totally go the Krämer route though.

Love to see you back shredding rubber on the tracks!

What top are you wearing in this video? Specific name so i can search for it please

Less sitting in the parking talking about it and more showing you riding it!! WTF!

How much more is it than a z900 speed and power Wise??

Nice video, great advice for me in chosing between the ss or an MV Agusta f3. It wil probably the Ducati for the mix of sportstyle and comfort for long distances. 😉

Enjoyed your video, you being an experienced biker, with two wheels is there a slight hesitation for the machine to want to turn in as opposed to one pivot point, Yamaha gts 1000 had this yet you learn how to ride around it, if you’ve not ridden one, do so.

i bought mine 6990 euros, nov 2019, 27 000 kms from "motorlive" for the french "bol d'or 2019" and i don't believe it.

I have one and this bike will make you laugh maniacally all the time. Words can't express how fun this bike is to ride. Great video!

My love Kawasaki zh2 😢😢❤❤❤❤

At 78 yrs of age i ride the Yamaha Tricity 155 . Its a great all rounder and can easily achieve 100 kph on the on the motorway(national speed limit is (100) i weigh 90kgs) its quite nippy ! Why not test one and see what you think. I could definately light tour on it. Enjoyed your test. Thanks

Too bad people do not know that Ducati SHOULD have a twin which this one does not.

I caught this video out of my desire to get an electric trackbike for use at go kart tracks. I found your video and was surprised by all the “new” things this exposed me to. I have been a motorcyclist for over 30 years, so I don’t get “new” things to ponder a lot. Thank you! New thing#1. I am a track rider familiar with 2 styles of riding, knee down and foot out (supermoto style). Here you are demonstrating another (one I knew of but don’t ever think about): foot down. New thing #2: dirttrack school. This is something I have long felt I need to learn to be a real motorcyclist. Thanks for the video and making me aware of the school. Love that this is a course with left and right turns. That was new to me since i am only aware of left turning circle tracks. (Gues this is 2 new things.) New thing #3. This is a question. Foot down technique puts your knee in a vulnerable position for injury. I am thinking about MCL/ACL injuries. I know this is more of a thing for dirt/offroad riders. Do you think knee braces, such as used by dirt riders, are a good consideration for this type of riding (dirt tracker insights welcome)? They are $$$. I am thinking about my foot flexing my knee sideways as it contacts the ground. It is at the very “end” of your leg and has a lot of leverage. Even if the friction force from the ground doesn’t generate a large force. Just wondering if this is a real concern or just an intellectual distraction. Good safety gear allows us to master 2-wheels while allowing for errors with less consequence. I want to ride and master everything 2-wheels related. Especially riding techniques. Thank you for the inspiration into “new” things.

I agree with everything you said about the bike. The bike is at home on big sweeping turns. Not as much so on smaller canyon turns. I love the characture if the bike. Love the engine. The stabilty. How it holds its line on the big sweeping turns. I love the looks and the sound of the bike. But the bike doesnt like being below 3000 rpm. So in very slow stop and go city traffic where you are in first gear at one and two thousand rpm. Stopping and starting. The bike is not at all injoyable to be on which i found out tonight. Plus the engine heat in slow traffic. So there are definetally better bikes for city traffic. Other than that i really love my SuperSport.

hi what gloves are you wearing

The best review ever on the ZH2. Nice job

Great video. I rode the blood bikes & fundraised for 10 years. Very rewarding & made me a much safer rider.

Thanks for subbing to my channel, miss your vids thou.

Very good review lara 👍

If you only drive/ride 50 miles a day, an electric bike/car makes sense. However, longer trips such as touring on the motorway where regenerative breaking is non existent, a petrol engine is the clear obvious choice.

really really great review- i have a Panigale v2 for the track, and this for the street. It’s the most streetable of all their sports oriented Motos. I personally love the old school sport tourer segment. Not a fan of being a human sail on ADV style motos. Is that a full system exhaust you are running?

If only I had where to store it..
