      I'm fortunate to have a '22 Hayabusa and an '06 ZX-10R and I still want this bike. Gotta start saving money for it. I started on an '04 ZX-6RR, so I'm a 600 guy at heart! Rowing through the gears near redline is so satisfying versus the blitzing fast acceleration of literbikes and up.

    Great review! I definitely like the new design. Especially the front end and the windscreen. I have the 2022 KRT. But out of all the new 24’ colors, love the white and red wheels. They need to do something different with the seating. Too much space for the rider and not enough for the passenger. Keep up the great content!!

    Sucks that is has a lower redline at 15k instead of 16k. Also that it’s 6lbs heavier, 6 less horsepower, and 2lbs less torque… still a nice refresh tho. Won’t be upgrading until they integrate the autoblipper. Prob not until the next refresh. Another thing is you won’t be able to buy impaktech crash cage or race rails for this bc the new plastic fairing on the side is covering the bolt where the cage screws into. Just another thing to consider. Making it hard for stunt riders. Going to have to cut the fairings…. Also making it hard for frame sliders without cutting fairing

    Everyone asking why they dropped the redline. It's to get through the emissions regs, or they can't sell it. At least they are still selling an I4 supersport unlike others. ECU flash will sort your worries anyway. It's not like the engine can't handle more revs.

    @robertkenney6002 4 місяці тому

    If you owned a 23 but upgraded to the 24 my buddy says you will absolutely feel the differnce in the 5 HP on the top end if your someone who does freeway/back roads whatever and gets upwards of the end of 6th.
    He also stated that you will feel “maybe, a slight difference in mid range torque/peppyness. Not as noticeable as the loss in the top end with the 24 model from the 23 though so in his opinion it doesn’t compensate for the difference in 5 HP loss on the top end as your sure as hell aren’t getting 5 HP more during the mid range.
    Somebody that is purchasing or upgrading to a brand new 24 though this won’t even be a thought in the mind, they’ll never know unless they know someone and rides a 23.
    Also, if they are a first time super sport purchaser or have previous owned late model motorcycles 2021-22+ (R3/N400/N500/N650/CBR650/R7) the new tech is going to stand out to them more than the older tech (analog) on the 23 zx6r most likely. Also the new tech like the cornering traction control on the 24 and obviously the new TRT screen looks more modern so IMO the 24’ not just because a it’s “newer” but the better features would be more appealing to a first time buyer or again, some upgrading but coming from a late model bike that may already have the TRY/LED screens besides the CBR650.. even though I’m fairly certain the new 2024 CBR600RR now has a TRT as well. Also the better clutch system than the ZX6R as they still have not put an auto blipper on the 24 zx6r. Cbr600rr is about $600.00 more usd if I recall than the 24’ ABS zx6r but both of those bikes have they’re pros and cons as well but that’s another story…
    Now.. buddy has already pre ordered his 25, and will trade in if not sold private before he takes delivery in late feb/early march for his 2025.. 137 supposedly HP… I haven’t read up or got the scoop on the differences from the 24 to the now 25 but 15 more HP FACTORY? How? Other than tunes, full system, air intake etc.. but than again.. that’s not factory.
