It disgusts me that this video does not have the high level of likes and comments it deserves. Brilliantly shot thank you. I just traded in my 2018 Street RS for the 20 Krt performance zx6r and absolutely dying for it to be released by the dealer. I suffer from fibromyalgia and the naked bikes just kill me with fatigue, riding the zx6r was like lying on my bed in comparison. Great review, you have a new sub 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Good day! '19zx6r owner here from the Philippines. Great video, review and montage! This is my first supersport coming form a 2010 Ninja 250. I agree with all the great points about this bike and I like specially the safety features such as the ABS, power mode and traction control. As for ergo, I'm 5'7 and took me quite a while to get used to the riding position after 9 years witn the ninjette. The bike looks awesome! The color scheme also looks nice. My preference was the grey color but unfortunately, Kawasaki only released the KRT here last year.

This is a Darn Good Video! Very professional! Love the drone shots! Don't you just love that big foot coming out of the sky and giving it a good kick in the butt at 8k RPM? As dangerous as it may be, your left elbow on the gas cap or there about can help the numb hands. Numb hands are just as dangerous or maybe worse! I like this dash over the new ones. You sold me. Now I just have to convince you know who to let a certain Yamaha find a new home. I'm really surprised the camera survived the drop. I agree on the performance level. Other than sound why would you want more. You have really stepped up your game with this video!

Back watching your video again (amazing camera work and concise, btw), and wanted to update you on a couple things. 1. I did get used to the ergos. 2. Bought some Helibar Tracstars for better ergonomics, but haven't felt the need to install them yet, but have heard great things about how it improves comfort for long rides and in town traffic. I was thinking you and your wife could benefit by installing them; make the bike a bit more practical.

I think you just sold a lot of ZX6r's for Kawasaki! Excellent review! The GoPro decided it wanted to be a 360 camera, then it said nah I'm out lol! Although the tft display is nice I will stick with old one, just something about an analog tach! You have to get Mrs Ninja on a dual vlog to give her take on the bike would love to hear it! BTW cool intro!

Well that was the reason I bought the new camera so we could do a dual vlog! But of course I had to try and screw that up by dumping it off a bike at almost 90mph...i still cannot believe there wasn't a scratch on it...and it still works just fine. I do agree there is something about an analog tac but I would be ok with a color screen as well. I'm a nerd so those kinds of things appeal to me. Thanks SJ for the comment! Mrs. Ninja will debut in the near future!

Spot on review, I have a 2013 white and black 636 ABS with 16k on the clock and you hit on all the pro's and con's which to me the pro's outweigh the very small con's IMO. I love this bike so much, was hit by a car last month at low speed, guy made a U-turn into oncoming traffic just not enough time to come to full stop, and I am a 35 year plus rider! Sht happens. (lucky just some minor plastic damage and bent rotor) back on the road in 3 weeks. Mods I have, I ditched the grab strap on the back seat (no need for it and makes it a cleaner look at least for me) two bros Sr1 slip on, Impaktech rear subcage, CRG levers which make a huge diff in feel, again imo, Led lighting up front and side markers, Shogun white sliders, Zero Gravity dark smoke windscreen, TST industries rear integrated tail light, Competition werkes fender eliminator kit which fits lower into subcage for a cleaner look imo, spec tank pads and a Vortex 520 conversion (Huge low and mid gains with just a mile or 3 off the top end ) In all this is a beast for what it is and just a ton of fun to rip on, I also have a 09 zx10r that now just basically sits in the garage now. Hey still have to have a liter bike just for those days when I feel the need for a little more top end rush lol.

By the way, the 'very low slung' handlebars were a problem for me when I testrode the bike today. Luckily the bike that I testrode was the one of my cousin, so we removed the set-screw that keeps the handlebars in stock position and then loosened the fixing-screws to adjust them. Basically made them as wide as possible, and the feeling and control you get on the bike is greatly improved. I think you should try that, it might also fix the fatigue in your right palm.

I don’t have a zx6 but for the right hand hurting and numbness I like to pull the clutch in to eliminate engine braking and coast while I stretch my arm out, and then rev matching back into gear when I’m done. Doing that a couple times for 10 seconds or so will make things feel nice again for a long time.

They aren't bad for starter bikes. If you have spent a good amount of time on two wheels I'd say 600 is OK to start on. I went with a yamaha r1 for my starter bike so when I get used to it I won't have to worry about upgrading from 600 to 1000 since I already got it.

As a new rider I was looking at the Ninja 400 but went with the 650 which had the TFT display, rubber foot pegs, and more power so I wont outgrow it too fast. Too bad it was $2K more but a great price for a new 650. Hopefully in a year or two the ZX-6R will have a TFT display too. Like the quick shifter on the bike too. Might get it as an upgrade. Also looking at electric bikes. I'm sure electric bikes will get better range, faster recharge times, get cheaper, and one day replace most of the the gas powered bikes down the road.

You mention how much better the ZX6 turns, and how much more planted it feels over the N1000. I have a ‘17 Ninja 1000. I swapped the tires out for the Bridgestone Battlax Hypersport S22s, OEM size front but 190/55/17 rear, and it feels like a different bike in a much better way. It tips in and turns way quicker/better and has more grip. I noticed the speedo is accurate at legal speeds measured with GPS too. You may have done this already, but if not, it is WELL worth it. It makes the 1000 sportier. 👍🏻
@StormtrooperRides

Yeah Keetoo I had read that before and that is definitely something I'll consider doing! I'm not saying at all that I'm uncomfortable on the N1K but a major difference from the ZX-6R in terms of confidence through turns. I may indeed throw a 190/55 on the back and see how that improves the handling. The speedo is a nice bonus too!! Thank you for the suggestion!!
@keetooderkatze2907
@keetooderkatze2907 4 жыл бұрын
StormtrooperNinja I loved my Ninja 1000 before the tire swap, but it actually seems like I got a better bike with these tires. Some of that is the increased grip. My N1000 had Battlax Hypersport S20s before, and the S22 is apparently an all around superior tire for grip. The main difference noticed though is from that rear tire’s increased diameter - and I assume - steeper drop off from the center tread to the sidewall. I think you give up a slight bit of straight line stability, but gain an amazing amount of cornering ability, and it seems to me, cornering stability. The N1000 no longer fights against the curves, it just dives into them and holds rock steady with little input. IMO, best mod you can do for a 2017 - 2019 N1000. I wouldn’t go back to a 190/50 if someone paid me.

The Concours 14 is another Kawasaki needs to update, I have a 2019 Ninja 1000 and was surprised to hear this was faster, they seem like very similar bikes

Yes the safety features show they care about the rider. I wonder how the bike compares to the GSZR 600 on comfort and other features.

Excellent montage/drone editing and a great review of the bike. The ZX6 was my first choice when I went shopping late last year. Unfortunately in my area the insurance was almost double that of the GSX-R 600 and the "gixxer" was only $9,700 vs the $10,300 for the KRT Ninja. I'd say the feature I'm missing the most is that quickshifter. No ABS is offered on the Suzuki either which is odd.

Thank you Bill! Yeah I certainly understand your decision, the GSX-R is a great bike IMO but the ABS is kind of a deal-breaker for me considering my wife is riding this thing. Gives me and her a little peace of mind. The QS is sweet!

How are the ergo? Wondering if I would like it. I tried the Suzuki gsxs1000 recently and it was fun also. It was more nimble than A ninja 1000 I tried previously.

Does it have wheelie control or something similar? I love the fit of the GSXR-600 but unfortunately, no ABS, a critical feature for me. So, I am looking at this bike instead.

Does this have any steering damping from the factory such as Honda with their HESD system? Looking at this or a CBR600RR.

Did you put a servo buddy on it when you did the exhaust ? Also does or did yours have a stalling issue ? What’s your factory idle set at ? I got the 2020 non abs . Also the low power mode is only good for 65% of the power not 80% . Mine has the same crappy loose rear seat which I’ve complained about .

Try taking the grab strap off, unless you really need it. Seems that strap keeps it from resting firm on the bodywork. This worked for me and cleans up the look.

I had a 2019 zx6r but it got stolen in March. It was storm gray which looked awesome. Only complaint I have for it, is that there was a delay in the throttle. Had to have kawasaki reps come and fix it. Other than that great bike. Have you experienced the throttle lag in the 2020 model?
