Welcome to our video reviewing the 2024 Kawasaki Z900! In todays episode, we take an in depth look at how the Z900 feels to ride from an average riders perspective, and whether she is a good bang for buck when compared to the competition, and her older sibling, The Kawasaki Z H2!

Sometimes even in 3th gear she will lift the front wheel. In 2nd gear no problem. I love this bike. Bought it 2 months ago and man, what an adventure

[@happyjalapeno9397]

I went from a z125 to a z900 once id passed my test. lol, was such an experience when i felt the power for the first time

[@adammaugans494]

I'm thinking about doing the same, tell me all about it brodi

[@deant6627]

Excellent review, I purchased this model about 6 months ago and I love it. I did upgrade the front forks with a Ktech piston kit & put a heavier spring in the rear

[@MiguelBorgesphotography]

I was not expecting that (love it)

[@colinwilson5635]

Nice video mate, definitely on the list when I thin out the bike collection. The Z900 probably needs the fuelling tweaked to get rid of the flat spot. I've had the same problem with most of my bigger Kawasaki's. Usually put there to comply with "emissions" or "noise" regs.

[@billychampy316]

Exhaust sounds really good 👍

[@jeanmilaalvarez]

Superbe vidéo merci jolie moto 🏍

[@monkmoto1887]

It doesn’t do no 13 second quarter mile, it’ll run high 10s low 11s all day

[@chrispresley7212]

10s

[@NObucketLIST]

Yep.

[@Bluecollarguy87]

Paying the extra little bit for the ZH2?! 😂😂😂😂 Here in America there is a huge price difference between the 2.

[@TheLastUchiha337]

Foreal, about another 10 or 11k. Lol, I'm actually selling my 22 MT07 and getting a Red 24 z900. I'm just waiting for the dealership to have one in stock.

[@Bluecollarguy87]

@@TheLastUchiha337yea bro the red one 2024 z900 is 🔥🔥

[@kriseightyfive5854]

Here in Germany it's a 10k price difference between the two.

[@Kwikasfuki007]

Yep, you're spot on! I have the 23 Z900 SE, and the H2 here in Canada is almost DOUBLE the price, which means look at it, admire it and walk right on by the H2, lol. I could get a Z900 SE and a base Z900 for the price of an H2.

[@TheRealJohnMadden]

I would say that lull in power is quite normal, especially for a Kawi. I've had 2 ZX-6Rs and they both had 14k rev range, I could rev it up to 7k and it wouldn't feel like you were picking up speed at all but then you would just take off like a rocket. That engine was so amazing though, I was hitting almost 100mph just from 1st gear. People would beat me off the line so easily but then I would come barreling by with a screaming engine, the '07-'08 ZX-6R's were unique beasts.

[@finyuka8374]

Is it sounds different than ZH2 ? Engine sounds more loud on video

[@NObucketLIST]

3:30 Specs?? Top speed is about 165 (mph). Geared up, mine does 150 in 4th. 1/4 mile - 10/11s. Frame is small. '17 model. 👍

[@chris_rides_kawasaki]

Ive had my z900 for 3 years and 7000 miles. The seat is hard. Its heavy to move around, and the steering lock isnt great. I paid £8500 new, for that i got a bike thats fast, it keeps up with much more expensive bikes on rideouts fairly comfortably, it hoons and is huge fun. Its also easy to ride and undemanding if you just want to bob along. Im keeping it at the end of the pcp.

[@debenhamdave4314]

Love a z900 great bike at a good price. Cheers GR

[@sambaez]

Tested this in person and the XSR900. While I like how this bike looks, I will be purchasing the XSR900. Has more torque, quickshifter up and down, cruise control.. and a long list of features for the same price. The Z900 has a bit more HP that will only be use going 100+mph, on everything else the xsr900 takes the cake.

[@kentucky_brew3678]

Hey bud! Both these are currently on my next big bike list! I like the look of this, but the xsr in blue is just dam sexy. But yeah like you said, more torque, quick shifter, cruise control ect its a no brainer

[@Calle746]

THE BIKE IS BRAND NEW::: LETS GIVE HER 10000RPM and full throttle :D that hurts my mechanical heart so hard :/

[@maomekat2369]

few sec of rev on new bikeis ok...just don't keep at 10k forever...

[@Pettington]

I not a kawa or Yamaha or any other brand fan, I’m a fan of the very best 900 naked so I need a comparison video with the mt09 and the speed triple

[@ramong1996]

Man, at the moment I’m stuck between the z900 and street triple. Can’t make a decision, I want both lol

[@Broken-six]

Cable throttle I believe.

[@altarof6515]

To me, the post 2020 z900's just feel like a z650 with more but smaller cylinders ;o

[@JoalisGarcia]

shouldve went with the SE

[@RobertHiggins-gv5jc]

We build All kind's of race motors and believe me almost everything that we build Hits the Dyno as soon as it's done and it doesn't hurt them...if they are put together right they Will take it nothing but the Best parts...if they use cheap parts well they Will Not last long..

[@Lucian2704]

What about Suzuki GSX-S1000 ? Should I go for it instead of this one?

[@mickthawley]

Yea 100%. Enter bike after more tech etc

[@Snotroggel453]

If you just wanna hoon around with occasional city rides definitely go for the z900, but if you are more track focused and really care about peak horsepower then go for the suzuki. The tft display is way better on the kawasaki more crisp and clear. If you are over 6’0 tall, the z might be a bit too cramped.

[@IanBradley-ns1bg]

Just traded in a GSX S1000 for a Z900. The gsx is blisteringly fast in a straight line, but its handling is nowhere near as good as the Kwak. The gsx is ponderous at low speed and handles like barge. If you haven't already chosen GET the KWAK, you will be pleased you did.

[@hawkslayers1]

I just bought a z900rs and im sure your not supposed to go higher than 4000rpm for the first 250 miles 😄

[@GligaChaz]

That's why I don't buy demo bikes.

[@moniquemoors1974]

First bike was a kawa versys 650 ex demo bike, that thing drunk oil for days

[@hawkslayers1]

I wouldn’t either one careful owner never thrashed 😂

[@JahoSelamaj]

I think 4k is too low maybe 6k instead but it probably makes plenty torque at 4k compared to my MT-03

[@MaccaIRL1]

Is this a p twin?

[@timmureddy]

Inline 4

[@ThePicc98]

Is it ok to push such high revs on the first 1000 km of the bike? 'cause I knew it was kinda bad and you should do it only after them but in case things changed could you let me know please? thanks!

[@maomekat2369]

[@Broken-six]

They are both Z’s, but I wouldn’t compare it to zh2. It’s a really good middleweight. I like it so much I bought one. It’s an everyday, blast to ride. 3rd gear is everything. Only complaint, pegs are a bit low! Good vid.

[@chrishall9625]

Feel sorry for whoever buys that bike after that knobs ridden it

Talk about fucking up the break-in. People really don’t believe it. It’s known that you have valve seals will look like shit at lower mileage from not breaking the bike in. It’s been proven.
