Here's why the 2019 Kawasaki Ninja 650 is the BEST mid-weight sport touring bike under $8,000

[@robotjeans]

[@SJMudTurtleCruises]

Very accurate assessment of the Ninja 650! I own a 2017 Kawasaki Ninja 650 and it is a well balanced bike. It also is a great upgrade bike if you started with a 300 or 400 cc bike. The torque right at the throttle is one of the things I love about the 650. Now it's not going to set your hair on fire like the H2 SX which I also own but the 650 is a fun and great bike! Great job on this review!

[@AzOm606]

Would you consider this for a beginner?

[@SJMudTurtleCruises]

@@AzOm606 If you have never ridden in your life I would say no, but if you have ridden dirt bikes then I would say yes. Also if you are over 6 foot and weigh over 200 lbs I would say the 650 would be ok for a beginner bike. I am one who believes that if you have never ridden that starting on a 300 or 400cc bike is the best way learn and then move up to a 650cc bike and this is the perfect step up bike. Also if financially possible I recommend keeping the smaller cc bike because they are fun to ride once in a while...lol! I still have my R3 and it's fun to hop on it every once in a while!

[@AzOm606]

SJMudTurtle Cruises so i have no riding experience and am 5’10 240 I really appreciate the reply I’m gonna look more into it be safe out there man!! God bless

[@SJMudTurtleCruises]

@@AzOm606 Check out the Ninja 400 or z400, either would be a great bike for you to start out on and it wouldn't be much after being on either bike to step up to the ninja 650! Also I highly recommend taking the MSF course if you have not. Plus the ninja 400 or z400 are bikes that you might not want to get rid of but add like the ninja 650 or z650 to keep them company...lol!

[@AzOm606]

SJMudTurtle Cruises thank you so much for the advice man I’m gonna look into all that I hope you have a great week and ride safe

[@lovelessissimo]

It does have an adjustable windscreen, so, half your problems with it are resolved.🙂

[@lovelessissimo]

Nope.

[@lovelessissimo]

@No_Name you think it looks bad and you don't even have a ninja yet? I do have one, and it looks like every other sport touring windscreen.

[@waiatm]

They do this to keep it looking like a supersport for the consumer. I think it's a great bike. Drop a tail tidy and an exhaust and you can have a squid missile. Put a windscreen and some storage on it and you have a sport tourer. By design my friends.

[@Mission_Nugget]

Great informative video. I have the 2018 Z650 and I love it. Same power train. I’ve been riding for seven years, still enjoy jumping on it. Keep up the videos sir.

[@Jmeez69]

DoneItWithD I also have a 2018 z650. It’s such a great machine

[@benwells2338]

I’ve had my Ninja 650 for about three months now, and I too find the stock windscreen to have a bit of weird buffeting effect when going at faster speeds, it feels like it’s in that awkward, in-between point, like some insecure angsty teenager that hasn’t yet figured out who they are, where it deflects wind from you, but not enough to actually shield you completely and seems to place the wind weirdly on my body. I’ve adjusted it in all its positions and felt the adjustments were meh, BUT! I purchased the Kawasaki accessory windscreeen that is a good deal larger, and find when I have it in the lowest setting, it is absolutely PERFECT for me. My helmet isn’t completely shielded from the wind, but that’s actually ideal since it puts those helmet vents to good use, but it does completely take the pressure off my chest. Side bonus to getting that accessory windscreen is that I find it seriously adds to the already sleek and elegant styling of the bike since it’s not simply straight up like the stock, but has a nice curvature to it. Shoot, I’d almost recommend the purchase JUST for the added aesthetic value!

[@dblackviper2k3]

1 year and 11,000 miles later I still love the bike. Maintenance is very easy and pretty cheap, great gas mileage with regular gas, about the perfect amount of power and gearing for the street.

[@melxdan]

Glad you stopped by SA and Cycle Plex! That's my dealer of choice. The heat fuckin' suuucks!

[@KillJoyHot]

I literally just bought this bike, in that color. I can't stop riding it

[@KillJoyHot]

It does have an adjustable windscreen, the abs models will say abs on the fork, and it's 68hp.

[@KillJoyHot]

I also average about 60mpg

[@rodrick722]

This was my first bike for 2 years! It's more than capable of doing anything a first or second bike rider would ever need. Other than the sound the bike makes I have zero bad things to say. I ONLY upgraded (z900) because I didn't want to invest mods when I knew I'd never get over the exhaust note. I could ride it HARD and get 50mpg (US) or a relaxing cruise at 60mpg.

[@imthiazfaizal6288]

Would you recommend it for someone who’s never ridden a bike before? I’ve never ridden a motorcycle (save for a Vespa back in my home country) but I live in texas right now and need a decent beginner bike. I wanted to start on a ninja 400 but I sat on one and I’m way too big for it (I’m 6’3” and 275 lbs) and I found the 650 fit better. I’m hesitant since it’s a more powerful bike and I’m very new as a rider.

[@rodrick722]

@@imthiazfaizal6288 To be honest, I think you’re going to be too big for the bike. I’m 6’4” but only 190lb. One thing you’ll learn once you begin riding is how important suspension is. My z900 is “designed” for a 180lb rider, but I can adjust the suspension. The Ninja 650 will be similar but non adjustable. You may need to look into cruisers or ADVs. Kawasaki Versys, Yamaha Tenere, Triumph Tiger, Suzuki VStrom etc. To answer your question: it’s enough power to terrify a new rider, but you’ll grow into it. With some respect shown to the throttle the speed of this bike won’t be what would kill you.

[@jasonpierson9829]

So happy you decided to keep up the bike reviews. Your input helps so many riders (new and experienced) decide on their new ride. That being said; two words.....Polaris Slingshot.

[@alexduey7868]

getting one of these to replace my R6 went to a kawi demo day and I surprisingly really liked this bike a lot slower top speed but low end acceleration up until about 80 or 90 feels the same. way more comfortable and surprisingly cheap insurance to!

[@benmay1294]

"It's more fun to drive a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow"

[@moolis]

Just got into motorcycling (1 mo. ago) and this was the bike I purchased (except in black and orange w/ABS). Glad to get some reassurance this was a good bike to go with as a beginner! I can attest to everything you said, vibratey in high RPMs but quick and nimble. Comfortable street bike - Don't regret my choice!

[@jimbo92107]

I had a Yamaha FZ6 too. Very smooth and well-balanced, but the revs at 80 would numb your butt after about 100 miles. Did your shift lever stick, too? I noticed that after the engine got hot, the shift lever would stop working. Turns out a shot of lithium grease was needed where the lever entered the case, about every other tank of gas. Anyway, I now have a Versys 650, also with the detuned Ninja flat twin. Great bike for long trips at 90-plus mph. Excellent engine, gets over 45 mpg at 80 mph, fully loaded with three cases. Unlike the FZ6, the Versys won't buzz your butt off at high speeds. On the other hand, the Versys won't do 138 mph. Versys tops out around 117.

[@franciscopires3512]

"motorbycle" XD

[@PopsRacer61]

..Good review !! just want to add that this bike has approximately 69HP and 69 ft lbs of torque. In India and some European countries, the hp is a litlle less. Also, the ABS models will have an ABS badge on the front fender. And one last thing, the wind screen is 3 positon adjustable. I keep mine in the middle position which is perfect for no wind buffeting at high speeds. I've had my bike up to 120 mph but it will top out at 128 or 129. Supposedly it will do 0 - 60 between 3.5 and 3.9 secs and the 1/4 mile in 11.8 secs all depending on the rider of course..

[@dikkado]

And here I am with my 150cc bike. Only admires all big bike through KZbin, maybe someday I'll be able to buy a 650cc bike.

you earned yourself another sub after this, and a few previous video, this was very helpful, as i was looking at getting a 650 as my first bike, compared to a 400, and im very reassured that a 650 wouldnt be too much bike for a beginner. as well as it would be better for longer, as well as at highway speeds. much appreciated.

[@kiknazz2020]

Although I haven't ridden either, I've spent time sitting on both the 650 and the 400 and I definitely feel that the 400 is just a bit too small. The 650 feels right. And... The gas tank on the 650 is the perfect design for crouching down and resting on.

[@MinhPham-tu7hu]

[@rehsa2194]

I live in San Antonio, that’s the dealership that I use. If you’re still here, go ride fm337. It’ll be well worth it. Ironically the Texas hill country has one of the most curvy roads I’ve ever seen, specifically the twisted sisters. Take 1604 west to Bandera road “hwy 16”, ride it abt 30 min to Medina, then get on fm 337 towards leaky tx. You’ll think you’re in West Virginia.

[@theenzoferrari458]

It tends to be cooler during that time. Of course we ride year round, but still complain about the heat, lol.

[@RobertNixAlternativeArtist]

Great review,this seems to be such a well balanced bike-I've always been a fan of the middleweights.

[@Truthasvictim]

I had the 2018 version and totally loved it-it was confortable, handled beautifully and nimbly, nice low end torquey machine, good on gas and man, that thing was super fast if you wanted it to be. Totally smooth and linear acceleration. That said, once I saw the 2019 Ninja, I was taken, and traded in my 2018, but everything I said about the 650 is true of the 1000 too, except you sure use more fuel. lol But the ZX1000 handles even better than the 650. They're both beautiful machines and if money wasn;t an issue, I would have kept the 650 too. I'd have no problem highly recommending both bikes.

[@madmyro]

Truthasvictim would you recommend the 650 for a beginner? Getting mixed input from videos.

[@kleinbottled79]

@@madmyro You will be slightly more likely to drop a 650 if/when you come to a stop awkwardly than on a 250-400 simply because the 650 is like 40-50 lbs heavier. The power probably wouldn't be an issue. IMHO learning on a lightweight bike is better, but it kinda depends. If you plan to crush a lot of freeways the 650 might make more sense. If you wanna rock twisty back roads, the ninja 400 will actually likely be faster. I'm faster on my 300 than most of my friends on bigger bikes. On a twisty road that is.

[@unhippy1]

@@kleinbottled79 A good 400 on a tight road is perfect tool to cause the 'bigga bikes is betta' crowd to have to do the follow of shame

There are great roads for riding just north of San Antonio in the "Hill Country." It's a very popular region for bikers. You MUST get out of the city, because there is too much traffic and the roads are basically straight. But as soon as you get out of the city to the north, there are really fun roads for riding.

[@MrRobschnieder]

Own a 2017 and ride it everyday for over a year, smooth power and still quick without having the power of a 636. Insurance is significantly better than a 636 and way more comfortable. Only complaint is it needed a full exhaust to enjoy.

[@StormAutoAdventures]

Great review, but what were you talking about saying this is no Ninja 400? Did you mean handling wise? That must be what you meant, because the Ninja 650 runs 12.1 @ 110 in the 1/4 mile. The Ninja 400 runs 13.1 @ 103.

[@lloydsumpter7735]

You say (over and over) that this a touring bike. For me (and I've done a LOT of touring on everything from a Kawa 90 to a Virago 750), the two biggest factors for touring are rider comfort and storage. You do touch on rider comfort (and it sounds like it's not that good), but you don't mention where to put all your gear! How is it for saddlebags? A sissybar and luggage rack?

[@alexduey7868]

Just a great all around machine you could go to a lot of track days on it with all the money you save instead of getting the 636

I'd really suggest you get the 400 it's cheaper to purchase and its lighter you can always trade it in and get the 650 later
