@Michael Tee Fully adjustable suspension still has limitations. No amount of compression adjustments or preload is going to make up for springs that are too soft and may only make handling worse.
Kawasaki did the math, most riders put a aftermarket exhaust and tune on the bike, and if you take it racing, riders put suspension on it. So they give you the best street unmodded at the best price. genius
I thought so too, I think it is a great looking bike, people take time to get used to something new (so many comments saying it's ugly). I bet they said the same about their current favourite models when they were a brand new design.
Hey Adam, you and the rest of the staff have big shoes to fill after the departure of Ari and Zack but you did an absolutely great job on this review. Keep it up!
She’s sexy as hell. If I HAD to nit pick about something it’s the front end bodywork is kinda long looking from the side but that’s just on a have to have something to complain about basis. She’s perfect 😍
Even though I do miss Zach and Ari, I have to hand it to Adam, this was a pretty good review. Keep up the good work! Also the new ZX6R is so ugly ahahah
@@officebear4637 I mean Ari and Zach have been making videos for a very long time maybe it's his first time doing a video, I'm sure he will get better over time!
To me this is the best 600 bike you can get. I always go for value-price. And there is no better bike then the Kawasaki. I don`t agree with the most opinion out there that it`s not looking good, to me it`s look stuning. You have to understand the details, the vision of the designer and trully look at it, and then you will see what a beauty this bike is. For me the best looking 600 is Yamaha R6 for sure, then then its come the Kawa. From the old models i really liked Suzana, but not the current one. Honda never really catch my eye, except i think the 2007 onwards model. I think Kawasaki is doing great job lately and i hope they continue doing it and make more of a mass production selling product like they are doing right now. Atleast in my country the price range for R6 is arround 14k. euro, while Kawasaki with ABS is arround 3.5 euro lower, so it`s not even a discussion. With Kawasaki atleast in my eyes you get stunning looking bike(atleast for me i love the design, to me its combine factor of aggressiveness and elegance), yet not the best looking bike in the class, but definetely the best for the money and its by wide margin. You get the most by paying less.
I gotta say everything about this bike is amazing, just amazing... I'm still a new rider (just a year in) and started out on the kawasaki Ninja 400 and will be upgrading to this beauty in the next two months.. This bike gives a grown man the giggles lol. Kinda like when you were 5 years old and got your favorite toy for Christmas '' Happy Day, Happy Day''... Safe Riding to Everyone..
I'm a big fan of Honda Vtecs too. I bought a Ninja 400 a month ago and love it. Last week I bought a 2019 ZX6R. I plan on keeping both because the 400 is so comfortable and fun. The ZX6R is a beast and I haven't even revved it out yet. Very happy with both.
You can tell he know his supersports. I ride a 2011 ZX6R so I know exactly what he's talking about in his review. Very concise! You had some BIG shoes to fill and you made it happen. Great job!
just tested today... i felt in love with this bike. Amazingly not surprised for my first 600 4 cylinder test on road, i'm a twin cylinder lover and torque... but coming from a bmw r 1200 r i was not surprised. And it's managable for the commun mortals contrary to liter bikes i've tested, because i'm not a superbike racer and i want to feel control on it. After 12 years of motorcycle i feel totally capable to evolve, learn and enjoy the 636 on road and for track. I'm waiting to buy mine !
He said it "looks a lot more sleeker". Which is both incorrect from a grammar standpoint and from a looking at the bike standpoint. Ari and Zack.....we miss you.
The looks of this bike just lets me a bit down, it looks more like a low-end 3/400 with a little more engine than a real “old style” supersport. Comparing it for instance with a 10 yo 636 is a disappointment, the old banger is way more appealing. I also bet that a 10yo Kawa with 2/3.000$ of suspension/brake/tyres upgrades would be as fast as this cheap plastic new toy. They are totally killing the 600cc sportbike class.
agreed, it's like they are deliberately trying to end off the 600 class all together, one new ugly and stupid bike at a time. To this point, only the R6 is still trying to keep the class going. The old 600RR from Honda was a turd on wheels, and the new Kawa looks a decade old, cheap, and more or less just a beefy 400.. I have high hopes for Aprilia with their potential 660RS to liven things up a bit
They are not killing the 600cc class. If you do any research and understand basic economics, than you would realize its not worth the investment by kawasaki for the bike. Why spend so much money on R&D when nobody buys them. In fact yamaha and kawasaki are keeping the 600cc class ship from sinking. I am an engineer and cost is a big factor when designing. Naked bikes and superbikes are the name of the game now. In terms of the sport class.
@@alexv5581 Which is funny cause after living with a naked for a few years I have come to hate it. I much preferred my time on bikes that actually protect me from the wind so I don't feel like a sail.
I got 115 whp, from a full system (no baffle), a race air filter, and dyno tune on a pc5. Not as much as I'd hoped, but removing the whole stock exhaust is definitely worth doing, for the weight savings alone - saves over 15 pounds by removing the stock slip-on and resonator. Overall, it feels good on the street and at the track - best all rounder 600, imo. An ecu flash could unlock another 2-3 hp and increase the rev limiter and top speed, although I don't think it's worth it to void the warranty.
Would this be a good beginner bike ? I just brought a 2018 ninja 650 two weeks ago and thinking about trading it in already for this. I feel like I might get bored of ninja 650.
All that matters is it's a great street bike that undercuts everyone. 600 class is dying why? The fact 600cc bikes cost close to 1000cc bikes. If you care so much about electronics then you have to pay up. Time, and Time again it's been shown that even bikes from 2005 with some mods are pretty damn close to the current line up. My 08 gsxr600 feels the same as my buddies 2017 gsxr600. Yes it's a little better and by little I'm talking about if you put a pro on them they would barely notice.
By those measures, how do you know it's a little better? If you put a pro on it and they barely notice then how can you tell it's better? Are you a pro? Just pulling your leg pal :p
Personally I feel like the new GSXRs have an amazing center of gravity and much better ergonomics compared to the old ones. Plus having some rider aids is a huge difference. GSXRs and zx-6r are definitely no R6 though.
@@officebear4637 I think you are right in that. How the suspension /chassis feels and reacts is also much different in newer bikes compared to the old... That's my understanding of it at least
The new clusters and Vehicle Information Center's are pretty awesome for a great street bike, especially for a daily. Having access to all that information is super important and all those fancy settings really do make a difference. Good luck swapping your whole cluster on an older bike and getting everything to work. It really depends on what bikes you are comparing.
Nevoexpo OMG what a nerd... really in your opinion clusters in a sport bike DO make a difference? All you need in a sport bike is an analog rev counter with a big needle, and maybe a gear indicator. Then if you have any ‘08 supersport, worth 3.000$, you just invest another 2.000$ in new high-end suspensions and a good set of brake pads and you’re good to go. For street riding and even round a track you’re 95% as fast as with this new gen ZXR. Plus you save 5/7.000$ to spend in countless race tyre sets to enjoy the track and the mountain rides. Traction control and riding modes are just pointless on a 600cc with no torque below 8.000rpm.
I was disappointed when the MotoUSA vids stopped coming so it's great to see Adam being featured on MC's UA-cam channel. Looking forward to lots more content with him as the reviewer....how about the new Speed Triple!?
Always a pleasure, Adam! Keep up the good work. At first i thought the bike looks kinda odd, but im sure it’s gonna be a grower since im starting to see the bike as ‘different’ instead of ‘odd’ haha
Probably already on your list of bikes to test, but if it's not the Kawasaki Z400 needs to be on it. Good work on the review as well. Missing Ari and Zach, but someday I guess we'll be missing you as well Adam!
Is this 2019 and forward Zx6r now made in Thailand instead of Japan? Also would be nice to include some comparisons about how it is to it’s previous generation since the 2019 is the first year for the refresh.
Have you tested the ZX14R or the Z1000 SX?? I would like to see them tested... I'm looking at purchasing one of those two bikes in the very near future
@@lazarnedeljkovic5615 That's a good sign but sadly I found plenty of comments crying and complaining about Zack and Ari on the first view into the section
Adam Waheed is not really a new guy - he has been around the block for quite a while, and he has street and track credibility. Of course we liked Ari and Zach, but it is not like they died.
Sad how many people don't know who Waheed is. Lotta 17 year olds who rely on "how to lube your chain" vids probably never stumbled across his content for several large motorcycle outlets over the last decade.
Or maybe a lot of people just liked Ari and Zach's style and way of presenting. To me, they were the sole reason I subbed to Motorcyclist Magazine in the first place. Yes Adam Waheed might be a character of his own I'm not here to discredit him at all. I'm just saying that he is not Ari or Zach, and his style is different - which might simply not be up to someone's taste. You seem like the 17 year old for not understanding this matter of different strokes for different folk. I'm unsubbing because Ari and Zach made Motorcyclist Magazine something I liked above most other generic review channels. Adam doesn't bring that feeling back, so I won't be invested. Also this review in particular was nothing noteworthy, super bland in general, and a couple wheelies doesn't magically make the content better on their own. Calling the bike sleeker is downright wrong, unless you think Transformers styling equals "sleek design". And in general the whole review was just "this is a little better, this is a little more comfortable, this is a bit yada yada". I don't get any feel of the bike, and I have no idea how it really stacks compared to the competition nor the previous gen ZX6R. Everything was just presented in a super predictable and boring way.
Channel Suggestion: -Superbikes shootout. -Track\Road gear shootout. -Track\Road tires shootout. Welcome to the well-known Adam to a great platform. Best wishes to a good job!
Youll like the s21. Sticky tires that warm up fairly quick. I've done three track days and few thousand miles commuting. Rear tire barely flat spotting. The multicompound tread is the shiznit..
Ahh Duu yeah I like the S21 so far. Stock S20 rear only lasted 2800 mikes in my XSR900 LOL. S21 already seems to be wearing better already after a few hundred miles.
The only real complaint I’m seeing from consumers is about the looks, which is subjective. Looking at what you get for the money the new zx6r is definitely a bargain. Lowering the price of this bike and adding some additional features such as a quick shifter and LED’s may spark some life back into the middleweight class. Changing the final drive and the 2013 change to the 636cc engine makes this bike much more street friendly. Being that the number one complaint about 600’s is lack of low end torque, this shows me that Kawasaki makes an honest and consistent effort to listen to their customers which I definitely appreciate.
I'm new-ish here but, is Adam one of the new hosts for Motorcyclist? If so, that would be awesome. Kinda gotten used to Ari and Zack but it's awesome to see The Madman here.
Hi there i have one question for you,why you dont make video about reducing hp from 600cc supersport motorcycle from 120hp to 50hp and what companies are doing that. Some people would buy 600cc LAMS supersport.Thanks
You know you're a sportbike rider when you describe low-end as being 7-8,000rpm.
Hahaha, true that!
@Michael Tee I know everything.
Unless you ride a 1000 ;)

Welcome to the well-known Adam to a great platform. Best wishes to a good job!
A haircut, finally! Thanks Adam
Lol, thanks man.
electric motorcycle review, shootout, view into the future. enjoyed this one though, very comprehensive.
Gud review Adam, bt do take care of the wind noise..
Adam, don't sweat the flax , you can man !
how much is it?
Is the head light of ninja 400 is the same with the ninja zx6r 2019
hell yeah.. they both look the same..
Is this as comfortable a ride like the ninja 650? I’m 6’3” 240lbs 12% body fat. I don’t want to be hunched over all crazy like
First i have heard of S22. I just got a new S21 rear after S20 wore out... S22 looks like another step up. I love the S21, S20 wore out really quick!
Youll like the s21. Sticky tires that warm up fairly quick. I've done three track days and few thousand miles commuting. Rear tire barely flat spotting. The multicompound tread is the shiznit..
Ahh Duu yeah I like the S21 so far. Stock S20 rear only lasted 2800 mikes in my XSR900 LOL. S21 already seems to be wearing better already after a few hundred miles.
Please test the Honda 650r
Nice bike even though i am not a fan of the ninja... but great review. Would like to see the new 2019 Yamaha r6 reviewed
Good review. How about a GSXR750 if they still make it.
The only real complaint I’m seeing from consumers is about the looks, which is subjective. Looking at what you get for the money the new zx6r is definitely a bargain. Lowering the price of this bike and adding some additional features such as a quick shifter and LED’s may spark some life back into the middleweight class. Changing the final drive and the 2013 change to the 636cc engine makes this bike much more street friendly. Being that the number one complaint about 600’s is lack of low end torque, this shows me that Kawasaki makes an honest and consistent effort to listen to their customers which I definitely appreciate.
Kawasaki makes the best performing and looking motorcycles.
Demon Slayer 561 ahahah thanks for that joke that made my day 😂
@@officebear4637 You probably ride a GSXR 600 squid bitch
I have motor 2019 Kawasaki xz6. Does the glass of the model 2017, suit it?
The previous model was dope looking, just like it's elder brother zx10r.
I'm new-ish here but, is Adam one of the new hosts for Motorcyclist? If so, that would be awesome. Kinda gotten used to Ari and Zack but it's awesome to see The Madman here.
Great job
1:02 you can "lug it" as low as 7,000 or 8,000 rpm. (Yikes) If that's lugging it, then
when does it redline ? (30,000 RPM) ?
would it need steering damper also?????
adam please do a review on hondas new updated cbr650r. theyve made a few upgrades worthy of an update video
Hi Kerry. You need to send an email with that request to: mcmail@bonniercorp.com
nice review but the asphalt there is so shit!Is indeed in US?
For everyone that is wondering, Ari and Zack moved to the Motor Trend group. Both of them are now hosting the Throttle Out series.
Hi there i have one question for you,why you dont make video about reducing hp from 600cc supersport motorcycle from 120hp to 50hp and what companies are doing that.
Some people would buy 600cc LAMS supersport.Thanks
