[@PsyOps404]

I chose the Z900 over the MT09, street triple RS and the 890 because of the extra cylinder. For me nothing beats the smoothness of an in-line 4. The SE is just an added bonus with components that improve over the standard version.

[@SuperSnallygaster]

This is the real reason to choose the Z900 over the others.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

@@marlonpanes1664 Supreme Edition. Actually I don't know. But it does have better suspension and brakes.

[@Jambome]

@@marlonpanes1664 Special Edition

[@chris_rides_kawasaki]

I own a 2021 z900 and to be honest unless your a track day junkie the standard suspension and brakes are spot on. The money could have been spent on a quick shifter rather than pretty forks and brand name calipers. This would have added something exotic to an already great bike.

[@MachoMadness69420]

I agree. The normal Z900 is a perfectly good road bike and therein lies the problem: A lot of people can’t wrap their head around that many riders never go to the track and don’t have any need for a stiffer, more uncompromising bike like a Duke 890 R. If you really want to sharpen up a Z900 then put on some decent rubber instead of the frankly underwhelming OEM Dunlop Roadsport 2s.

[@beefquiche]

@@MachoMadness69420 - agreed on tyres, but adding better brakes to the Z is a no-brainer too. Never a good idea to have anything less than the best brakes available - it's like advocating for cheaping out and buying a mediocre helmet instead of a great one.

[@sebbekartellen6493]

I’m gonna buy a z900 in April next year. Can’t wait!! I have an er6n (650cc)right now. but I never go on track days ever so I’m definitely gonna get a normal z900 and not this SE version. I think about getting a 2022 z900 performance edition though because I really want that akrapovic exhaust.

[@robhines2235]

Agree. I have a 21 Z900 ABS and it's perfect for what it's meant to be. The junk Dunlop tires must go. I knew the day I rode it home from the dealer.

[@АлексейЛогинов-ж1ц]

i own a 2021 z900, and i think brakes are terrible for the kind of power you get. I always have two fingers on a front brake when i ride, and imho it takes too much muscle power to slow down efficiently. Overall, a good bike for the money, although i'd say mt09 is marginally better at everything except the looks (subjective). Too bad at moscow dealerships mt09 was like $1500 more expensive than z900, so it was a no-brainer for me.

[@williamclarke2020]

In a perfect two wheeled world, all machines would have USD Ohlins forks and mono shock(adjustable of course!), With Brembo monoblocks clamping down on dual 320 mm pie plates. Tyres are the gentleman's choice!

[@tonytone5462]

I dont care at all if a bike has a quickshifter cause one of the reasons i love riding is the clutch shifting honestly. Once you use the QS primarily then the clutch lever is useless. And whats the use of a QS anyways? To get off the line at a red light faster? Im not a track rider or street Rossy so i personally dont care about having a QS.

[@VictoriaStobbie]

Riding the Z400 at the moment. And I just visited a dealership asking if this bike had a special edition one. And the dealer said there wasn’t. So happy to find out they now do! Seriously considering it as the base 900 was a joy to sit on. But my only concern is it’s pretty tall.

[@old_dan]

I really like the Z900 when I saw it in a local Kawasaki dealership. But the bike I really fell in love with was the Z900RS Cafe. Same engine (less HP), better suspension and it just looks amazing imo. Still, the Z900SE looks pretty damn good and in a way I kind of want one. If the SE was available when I bought my RS Cafe, it would've been a very difficult choice.

@JuicyDizzy It should, MT is certainly a better all round machine. I rode them back to back three times at IMS Dallas. MT offers a stronger and more usable engine, better ergonomics, tech and equipment.

[@tonytone5462]

Whats awesome about the Z900 is that it still has a throttle cable and not those electronic throttles. I just couldn't trust an electronic throttle. And the numb feeling compared to the throttle cable on a bike. I'll take the cable over electronic. I havent test rode a Z900 but I've been thinking for about a year that it will be my next bike. I was almost sold on the MT09 SP but the throttle is what does it for me

[@luisgomez7864]

I'm pretty sure they are not cable anymore. They have rider modes since 20 model

[@tonytone5462]

@@luisgomez7864 i want to buy one so of course i have to know about the product i want to buy. So up until the 2021 model, i am not sure about the 2022 model z900, they have cable throttles NOT electronic. They do not have the 6 axis IMU which i believe would then require an electronic throttle.

[@andrewholmberg6152]

Was super confused about this topic myself how can there be riding modes without ride by wire answer turned out to be a little of both the Kawasaki dual throttle valves where the primary valve is operated by a cable but a secondary valve lies underneath controlled by the ECU so it both is and isn't electronic throttle you get the feel of a cable but still have to rely on a computer not screwing things up

USA MSRP- ST765RS: $12,850 890 Duke R: $11,999 MT-09SP: $10,999 Z900SE: $10,699 Still the bargain in the USA and still has the most horsepower, by a smidge (over the MT).

[@ajojoseph6052]

MT still has two key equipment items, QS and cruise which is missing on the Z900 SE. But missing the upgraded brakes. Love to see better brakes on the MT

[@exothermal.sprocket]

@@ajojoseph6052 I think the rotor size gained a few mm on the MT in the last update, also gained the Brembo adjustable master cylinder. Calipers might be the same. I'd like cruise control on absolutely every motorcycle, but the truth is, it requires throttle by wire and lots of R&D to get the programming correct. Not to mention additional part numbers in the manufacturing process.

[@tg8150]

The Kawi is made in Thailand. The Yamaha is all Japan built. That’s something right there. Plus, cruise and quickshifter are icing on the cake. The Z needs a whole new makeover. It’s old.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

@@tg8150 BMW 3-series are made in South Africa, Audi Q7 are made in the Slovak Republic, Audi Q3 made in Spain, VW Jetta made in Mexico, Dodge Challenger is made in Canada, and Mercedes Benz ML and GL are made in USA. That's something right there. Doesn't bother me in the least that the Kawi is made in Thailand (if I could confirm it), as any company worth its weight in salt is going to make sure their materials and production processes are in alignment with the country of origin, including the workforce who is trained to do the work. Nothing magical about the hunk of dirt or the air over Japan. Japanese business men are very particular about their reputation and wouldn't be putting plants in other countries unless they could assure consistent and compliant product quality.

[@DevRSVR]

I really like the Z900 but the only thing that made me not get one was the seat height. It felt way too low and im only 5'10. That rear shock looks sweet though. Id say it will handle beautifully and around the 120 bbp mark is imo the sweet spot for a road bike. Overall it looks cool.

It is a big mistake NOT to include a quick shifter. I am currently riding Suzuki GSX S750, but I owned and rode a few kawasakis such as Ninja 400, Ninja 650, and Z900. I love the quality and reliablity of kawasakis in general. However, if I have choice between Suzuki GSX S1000 and Kawi Z900 SE, I think I will choose Suzuki.

[@paulconnell1309]

Looks at the GSX S750 as an option. Way cheaper where I live. Although unsophisticated and a smaller engine I understand it smooth and fast enough around town and really is good in the apex and quick if you ask it and use the revs???

[@Tobeon2]

@@paulconnell1309 Haha.. S750 is good enough at my level of riding although it feels heavy often times. On a track, my favorite bikes have been KTM RC390 and Ninja 400 mostly due to their light weights. I still suck at cornering with heavier bike 😓😞 (I think Ninja 400 is the most practical bike for a city ride and a short weekend tour, and you can take it to the track too ) To be honest, the bike I really want to ride is BMW S1000R. I rented it for a day about 3 months ago.. and... Boy, Boy, What an awesome bike it is ... But then, it is so much more expensive... 🙄

[@paulconnell1309]

@@Tobeon2 I let a fully speced newish S1000R pass me by at a dealer. Semi active electric suspension and all. Could have got it for the same price and the coming Z SE. A deal, it went quickly. Thing is I am not sure what i would do with 160bhp riding down the road to the mall or a meeting. Also maintenance is costly given the new price was 40% more than the Z SE and double the GSX S750. I ride a 200kg bike and for me weight is irrelevant once you start rolling. Can't feel it again till I stop. A little counter steer and even a heavy bike will roll in and sit in a corner. Maybe exaggerating, U turns and tight circles take practice and you know you are on a bike not a scooter! Also parking. But on the road it's easy. Cornering takes practice and professional training is essential. Over here the Government provides it for free. Well $50 for a eight hour day course in a small group with Comms. Called Ride for Life courses and funded by the Accident Compensation Corporation, the state owned compulsory accident insurer. They also run a Shiny Side Up programme with news letters and an annual road show. All about keeping bikers out of hospitals and cemeteries. Still looking at the GSX S750 ....

Not having 6axis IMU means no cornering ABS, worst traction control and wheelie control. MT09SP is still the best option for a bit of everything and it can have topcase and a decent wind protection as optional

If someone blindfolded the motorcycle and had you ride it without you knowing what brand or model it was, could you honestly tell the difference between a GIZMO-FESTOONED version and the more simple Z900? Honestly the Z has such superb throttle control and traction feedback from the wheels you don't need no stinking gizmos.

I'm a proud and happy 2020 Ninja 400 ABS owner. I'm a CDN ex-pat living in Japan and the 400 is totally awesome here, where all road max speeds are 50km/h, but everyone goes 40 or 80. I can open up and rev high with the 400. It is however a bit cramped in size and not quite fit for highway trips, so was thinking of upgrading to this Z900. I know I'll be satisfied on the highway trips, but what about my everyday commute to and from work (30 mins curvy coastline 50km/h road). Will this 900 be boring for me? Stuck on 3rd gear all the way to work?? Just wondering.

Thanks. Looks cool with quality kit. Where I live the MT09SP is the same price as the current Z900. On paper better value. The SE will be welcome but the higher price hard to justify. The GSX S1000 will be cheaper than the SE here. In theory less well equiped but in real world terms with a quicker shifter and 148bhp it will be superior. Pity the designer was playing with lego when they designed the front light. Ugly. For not much more than the Z900SE you can get a 2020 CB1000R here which looks way cool in black, again has more go and the famous Honda quality. The Street Triple RS will be a similar price to the SE. Quick and a real track bike but hard to justify for a 765 with less low down grunt than all options including than the Z. And of course all this ignores the KTM 890 and even the Ducati Monster. So yes the SE will be a great addition but there will be better value around.At least where I live.

[@carlosvejar3938]

Z900 SE please

[@iannRides]

Is there really an option of that colorway at 0:44

[@dmandhelen]

No IMU .. no cornering TC or ABS ..!! Or QS .!!!🤔🤔🤔it’s way behind the others and much heavier!!! I’d love one .. but it needs these extra essentials.. in my opinion..😁😁.. I think Kawasaki are very inconsistent with their Z naked’s .. unfortunately you’ve got to have a huge behemoth of a naked with 200 hp and a Supercharger to get all the latest tech !! I don’t know why !!🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️😁😁

[@andylindsay3577]

I have an SE .. it’s got traction and abs 👌🏼

[@dmandhelen]

@@andylindsay3577 I know .. but no cornering Abs or TC .. it’s only because I thought these were important 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️.. but to be honest I’m not too sure 😁😁.. I’ve got a bike now without it and I’ve not missed it 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤣🤣🤣👏👏👌👌👍👍..

[@dmandhelen]

@@andylindsay3577 and of course no QS… it’s the only reason I didn’t buy one !!! I would have loved one but I need a QS .. my left hand aches like mad after an hour of clutching 🙈🙈🙈.. plus I love the feeling and sound of a clutch less upshift on full revs !!! Sounds fantastic!! I wish they would have put one on !!👍👍😁😁great bike !!👌👌👌👌

I love my 2020 black fuking kick ass bike….best looking in all classes.

[@KirkyMcgoo]

[@thepsychicpeach8425]

Looks just like the z400. Weird seeing bigger bikes designed influenced from the smaller bike

[@Jason.1999]

you have good pricing up in the UK god damn ...

[@BingoDingo8394]

I just found my next bike.

[@imaloztcause]

Hmmm, MT-09 SP... cheaper, quickshift up and down, cruise control, lighter, still fully adjustable suspension. HMMMMMMMMMMM and the Z900SE looks like a slightly greener Z900 base. SP > SE. I'll throw my own steel brakelines on and call it good. lol

[@romeomangubat4432]

How the price z900

[@clemfandango9534]

No IMU?

[@oldmanV17]

Going to get a can of gold spray paint and paint my forks, cheapest 10 hp even lol

[@konstantinw.1036]

And sell the bike with Profit

[@Judsonp14]

No KQS? its still not perfect!

[@robertstockton9038]

Mt 09 sp😁👍

[@kevinlong8446]

When can I order one in US? I want this one--

[@wescam]

Kawasaki will announce some new US bikes for 2022 on Oct. 5. After that dies down, they have a few more to announce. Check the US site for details. Reasonable assumption is Z900SE, Z900RS SE, Z650RS will be in the first wave announced. No dealers who get projectied deliveries have put up this Z900 SE by accident yet. Good dealers will make a call list for deposits now for when the shipments start showing up here.
