I came here for the celebrating. 100,000km is phenomenal! Congrats!

[@JezzaGee]

Thank u so much

[@simoschv]

i'm planning on buying a used z900 and was worried about 10k km, man you changed my mind. keep riding safe!

[@MJT-DA]

well the engine architecture is over 20 years old. Its the zx9r engine, so yeah they made alot of improvements with it between the z1000, z1000sx ninja 1000sx and versys 1000 LT

[@PaZuZu871]

Do your research..there are even 600 supersports..Zx6r with 278000 miles and a Cbr600f with 332000 miles

[@MJT-DA]

@@PaZuZu871 i saw that one but you have to ignore the service manual and do services early it was designed to only last till 80,000kms that zx6r had its services either cut in half or over done. I work at a bike shop and they blow headgaskets often as they’re used to being on that track. If you baby it and perform the services earlier than theyre supposed they will last long. On the other hand the z900, 1000sx and versys 1000 were designed to be on the street only so they last long as they dont have to be stressed all the time like the 600cc screamers.

how much time did you do valve clearance adjustment ? and how frequently you change oil ?

I put around 18kkm on my 2022 Z900 within a year of buying her. Best bike I owned so far. No issues, no electrical faults, no sensors dying

The Z900 has timeless aesthetic and is reliable. One of the best motorcycle ever built

[@tiagofigueiredo2529]

I've made 110.000km on my late 2019 Honda CB500X that I bought new. Changed the spark plugs at 108.000km a couple of weeks ago and never touched the valves. 👌

90K KM on my Z750 only issue is horn broke a few weeks ago :)

[@JezzaGee]

Ah still Amazon achievement brother hope u got it fixed 🙏🏽

[@KafkaesqueRider]

Wow man, 100K kms it's wild! And have you had any major service for the bike? Like valve clearance adjustment, clutch plates replacement, steering bearings, drive chain replacement, etc? I have a 2021 Z900 and I also felt the lack of power on the top end so I ended up having a full system, K&N filter and a power commander and I can say it feels way better, added a dynojet quick shifter and the thing fly since the start. I had to put on a brake upgrade, added some Brembo Stylema with a bracket to change the mounting to radial and Hel steel braided lines matched with a Hel radial master cyclinder. I'm still looking for some more upgrades as I plan to keep this bike for a good long time.

[@JezzaGee]

Last major service I made was beginning of season at 90k kilometers, and im so glad you love the bike and are able to upgrade it. Japanese bikes will last you a long time brother so I hope you enjoy

[@quentinwhite766]

🎉🎉 thanks for sharing I’ve done 76,000kms on my 2020 z900 120kms a day commuting. I was worried about when I should move it on. I think I’ll just keep going. Cheers bro.

Nice video man - love your countryside. I was about to sell my 2022 z900 with 25,000km on her, but after seeing the crazy prices on new bikes decided to keep the bike and upgrade with a performance air filter, full akra system and a tune.

[@II_nxt]

That's some nice riding right there. It's nice to see, that you are able to to get this bike to a 100k with your riding Style. Little envious about the streets you have in Switzerland. I have to ride quite a distance from my place to get some decent twisty roads here in Germany. Have a like good Sir!

Still running like it just rolled off the lot. I love Japanese manufacturing.

[@hiddendragon415]

Gen 3 Mt09 I ride it reasonably hard, hard not too for 30,000 km and hasn't missed a beat. You hear of issues with Euro bikes including BMW and Aprilia but rarely Jap Bikes.

[@Gixxer983]

No big deal for these bikes. One of my bikes is a Kawasaki KZ1000 P with 117000 KM . Runs just fine . Bikes are way understressed compared to car engines. Not much to haul arround and made to rev 13k

[@JezzaGee]

Yesss very true I heard the European bikes don't hold up too good unfortunately, I really love the reliability of Japanese bikes

[@VirtualTech]

Sweet quietness of stock exhaust..... The after market exhausts are annoying

[@cb4me450]

Nice work & congratulations. I put 130,000km on my little CB500F. Finally upgraded to CBR1100XX. Building a Z750 for the twisties that will hopefully be as reliable. Agreed with fuel gauge. Passed on buying a few good bikes without them for that reason.

[@JezzaGee]

thats wild 130k is so good. And thank you I agree I really appreciate a fuel gauge especially if you daily ride :)

[@tiagofigueiredo2529]

If the Z900 had the same displacement, power and gearing as the Z1000, it would be perfect.👌

[@Jerry-w1d]

The B.S about high miles on bikes is just that B.S a misconception bought about by motorcycle manufacturers to sell newer bikes I have had more than several bike with over 100k miles on them not Km and one did 210k miles and was still traveling perfectly.

Very true bikes are becoming more and more reliable

💥what a legend mate.. Keep on sharing videos and experiences ❤❤ cheers mate 🍻🎉🎉

[@jaide1312]

If your bike is fixable I would just stick with it for as long as possible honestly, see how long you can keep it going! If you get more power you might reach that point where you're never really tapping into all of it, which is usually less fun than getting all the power out of a less powerful bike.

[@Rickmac22]

Got a 2022 with headers, exhaust and tune... It's got that extra power you're looking for!

[@dreamgaming1745]

Give a treat your bike just go and givea good service and had a full tank ❤

i like your mirrors :) can you tell me which model is to buy for my z900 :D thank you in advance ! love your videos !

Haha thinking of Ducati Streetfighter V2 also. But I think maintenance costs wont be something Ill be excited about. So may be its gonna be z1000, I think the insurance costs are holding me up. So most likely gonna end getting mt09sp, still deciding...

[@gujo4351]

Very cool driving school instructor gave me the z900 to try on the parking lot and holy shit i shat my pants. Rode cbf 600, xj6 even tracer 900 but this bike actually scared me. The fact that its crazy on low rpm but goes completely nuts on high makes me wonder how its legal to sell a 1000cc sportbike to anyone that can afford it. Also rode my cbf 600 for 11k km and it feels like part of my body. If you did 100.000km i cant imagine how comfortable it feels for u.

[@babypg2576]

Congrats for 100k km on your motorcycle. I would recommend you a Triumph Speed Triple 1200 RS as your next bike. I think it would fit your needs and it's also more exotic because of the 3 cylinder.

[@ANONYMOUSBIKERUSA]

hell yeah! I have a 2024 Z900 with 2000 miles lol.......lets go!!!!!!!!

[@JezzaGee]

Hope u enjoy it!!! Its a fantastic twistie demon

[@neoquest2012]

I was gonna buy a s1000R, test rode it, loved it but the salesman said Try a gen2 GSX S1000 quick shifter/blipper full l.e.d.s LCD dash Almost as fast as the beemer for a fraction of the cost, rode it and the K5 engine was a peach! Saved me nearly £3000 man! Just ditch the original Dunlops for some sticky Michelins and live life fast for less 👍👊😎

[@viligaer3368]

That is quite of a goal achieved right there.

[@oversteer_9339]

[@JezzaGee]

Switzerland is a beautiful country :D but very strict

[@EndritBs]

Japanesse bikes are the apex of bikes. A sport bike clocking 100k is pretty good.Definetly every bike if it stayed in lower rpms like car,they would last like them.Anyway wish they produce some high torque diesel bikes.

[@PatoneLol]

Problem is, naturally aspirated diesel engines are horribly inefficient and terrible on emissions - you'd need a turbocharger. Hard to fit on a production motorcycle where cost is the major limitation.

[@prithviraj2943]

Congratulations Bro 🎉 Its really happy to see a fellow rider who takes care of his ride ❤ Its completely my opinion.. I could see that you are interested in upgrading your bike for more power and you are looking at the right direction S1000R, SF V2 & SF V4. ---------- If you are looking at SF V2 .. just skip this bike.. imo SF V4 makes much more sense because of the following: + Its a V4 (sounds exactly like a Moto GP bike) and has top end power for daysss :) + Has better low end torque and better tractability (Cruise in 3rd gear @ 50 Kmph.. without any stalling.. which is impossible in V2, need to downshift to 2nd gear) + Less engine vibration compared to V2 + Has better Tech and Dash - Negatives: More heat & Drinks a lot of fuel. - Its expensive, but hands down it is a better bike compared to V2 IMPORTANT: If you are set to get SF V4 don't buy it now(atleast wait for another 6 months) Just this week we saw the launch of new Panigale V4.. the same tech will triggle down to new SF V4. The main deal breaker here is.. the new version gets CRUISE CONTROL. Its a boon for muching miles. Also gets a new Dash which looks sick. Remaining changes are minor mechanical improvements which we can't tell the difference untill we ride old and new bike back to back. ------- If you want S1000R just go ahead and get one.. u wont regret it. Just a reminder similar to Z900 its an inline 4 the power deliver is peaky and lacks low end grunt. ------- As you have already tasted Japanese reliability.. just have a look at the following bikes: MT09 & MT10 Z900 & ZH2 ------- Test drive all the bikes and decide which suits your liking better.

It's super easy to import brand new motorcycles into Switzerland, and due to the low VAT and favourable exchange rate to Euros, you could end up saving 1000s of Francs if you find a good deal and import your next bike from Germany.
