    Have a '22 black and blue Z900. I commend everything on this bike, except the oem tires. Anyone that says this bike is boring or no character is full of it. It pulls hard, handles great and stops well, even if they're not Brembos. Most liter bikes, including the MT 10 have 44mm throttle bodies. The Z has 36's. For being at a disadvantage in the fuel delivery dept., it still goes like stink.There's a YT channel named FULLGASS and I've seen Z900's take on MT09's, 10's, finally lost to a 1290 KTM. I'm not saying it's the fastest bike out there, but for what it is,it does well.

    I'm on a 2022 Z900. Got over 14k miles on it. It's my 1st bike. I love it, but I'm thinking about jumping to an MT-10. More for tech over power even though the MT-10 puts down more power. Since you've ridden both, would you take the MT-10 or the Z900? Thanks for the video.

    • @Omni_Moto
      @Omni_Moto  15 днів тому +1

      I would take the MT-10 over the Z900 every time. The power:weight figure is my main reason for that. The MT-10 weighs nearly the same and makes 40 more horsepower. Suspension componentry is improved, and the quickshifter is phenomenal on the new generation. MT-10 also has cruise control which is a big deal for me, but maybe not other riders.
      Price is another area to consider. The MT-10 has seen a few price increases over the years putting it up over the $14K USD mark, while the Z900 remains under $10K USD. Pre-owned MT-10 are out there for under $10K though and that's how I procured mine.
      If you're thinking about jumping to the MT-10 I would (personally) make that jump because the MT-10 offers plenty of reasons to do so at reasonable prices.
      Thanks for watching! Ride safe.

You kind of remind me of crash test goat. Well, at least you kind of sound like him. He rides either the mt06 or maybe the r6. Whatever it is, he's had a wicked tune on that thing. I think he's lost his mind somewhere along the way. He's a utuber in Houston TX. I've only watched about 5 of his videos so far. I only commented one time. Told him I hope he has his life insurance policy all paid up. Oh yeah, have you heard of the exhaust I mentioned? Guy's name is Devin and he is in the UK. He has utube channel also. I spoke with him on the phone back around 2019. I love the Diablo. Most of his videos are installs on different bikes and he even cranks them up and let's you listen.

      Hey there, the best way to know it to sit on it. Based on your height, I don’t think you’ll be able to comfortably flat foot the bike. You’ll likely be on the balls of your feet, but if your an experienced/seasoned rider, you should be able to handle it and make it work. Check your inseam and reference that with the seat height on Kawasaki’s website for your country.

    I'm really looking at getting a 23 Z900 SE. Do you guys think it's alright for me to go from a 22 KLX 300SM to the Z900? I'm a fast learner, but I also dont want to make a super big jump if it's going to be too much for me. Any thoughts?

    • @Omni_Moto
      @Omni_Moto  2 роки тому +5

      I run into this question frequently on the sales floor, so yes, I have a couple of thoughts on this!
      That jump is doable, but you have to understand the engine is completely different in terms of power delivery, so it will behave different than what you are used to. The best way to become comfortable with the bike is to gradually work through the selectable ride modes (rain ---> road ----> sport). This will provide you with a nice learning opportunity as you discover the capabilities of the Z900. It is an incredible motorcycle, and the SE is well worth the money for the upgrades it gets.
      Go sit on one. That's a huge thing to do when buying a bike, because it creates immediate connection, familiarity, and confidence from day 1. Once you go out and test ride it, put it through the paces, and observe its outputs based on your inputs.
      It looks intimidating, but the bike inspires confidence because of its excellent suspension, brakes, ride modes, ABS, and traction control. All of these rider aids tie together to create a beautiful masterpiece of a motorcycle.
      Respect it, and it will treat you well.
      Hope this helps. Thanks for the comment, and ride safe. 😎

    mt09 or z900 what will you choose?

    • @Omni_Moto
      @Omni_Moto  Рік тому +1

      Such a tough question. The MT-09 is about 50 pounds lighter, but it’s down 20HP. I’m a Yamaha fan boy myself and I love the way the MT bikes are set up, but I’ve never had the privilege of riding an MT-09 so I can’t speak from experience. At a glance, and based off of the MT-07 I owned and the MT-10 I currently own, I think I’d opt for the MT-09 over the Z900. It’s very dependent on what you’re after though. The MT-09 will have more grunt off the line and incredible midrange power with decent top end. The Z900 had awesome midrange and the top end was stellar. I don’t think you can go wrong with either one, but the MT-09 would be my preferred choice just because of my familiarity with the MT line. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!

    R U wasting time shifting twice inside 60mph......if it will do 60 in first then it will most likely be fastest getting to 60 without shifting
    I know my Versys 1000 will do 75 in 2nd, and they probably have same gearing
    Yes that bike sounds nice, if not too loud, I like stock pipe volume....... I don't mind riding behind the loudest pipes ever made, I just can't sit on top of them
