Going from 750cc to 125cc is quite the change, but we are loving these little bikes! We were supposed to go to the track with them this morning but it is freaking cold! 🥶
Hopefully soon! 👍🏻
How cold is cold ??🤔
@@BJJNINJA215 It was 39 here this morning! Eff that! lol
@@SALTxTHExWOUND Damn! That *is* cold for you!!
I hope you guys can track those bikes soon. It looks like a lot of fun!
I love my little z125 too. Sometimes you have to just ride a little bike and laugh a bunch while you do it. It's such a fun bike.
Just bought one today. Picking it up in a few days. So excited
Dude, they look like they’re a blast to ride, definitely worth having as a 2nd bike, nice tame pace fun!
You got that right!
I'm about to be buying one of these off a buddy. It was laid down once going like 20mph only damage is a couple cracks in the plastics and a dent in the exhaust. Frame is good and forks are fine. Was just dropped wh8le learning to wheelie 🤷 only $900 bucks. It's my first bike, I'm not a big dude 5ft 4in and 9ve never ridden dirt bikes or anything but I understand how to use a clutch and what not already. Super stoked to have my own. Idc what anyone says, 2 wheels is 2 wheels 🔥🔥🔥💯
Good luck! Thats a great price!
@SALTxTHExWOUND it's a steal for sure🔥 just gotta replace some of the plastics and it's good to go. It's already rideable but I don't like how it looks without the plastics lol
I would love to try one of these bikes. The sound of your exhaust is so cute! 😂😍
They’re such a blast! If ever you get the opportunity I would highly recommend riding one 😄
These on a go cart track are insane fun
Im so glad you posted this video as i have been looking at GROMS AND THE Z125 for fun and add to my collection of bikes R1 GSXR 1000 and KLR 650 and the Hayabusa but being 6 ft 4 and 250lbs on Z125 could be funny looking, great video thank you
SAPPO
Hey Sappo! Heathers brother in the video is actually 6'4" as well, probably 230 or so and he rides a grom. I would say get to a dealership and sit on both first, one may fit you better than the other. Good luck man! :)
Thanks so much for your reply. I have sat on both bikes and seriously considering the Z125 and the small bikes look super fun.
There is a guy here in our small town in SW MO that is 6’1” and rides a Z125. He rides it 20 miles one way to work. His pickup cost him $110 per week for gas. Now he pays $10. He definitively sits upon tall 😂
Sweet rides! :D
Almost $5 a gallon here in Montreal, Qc
Enjoy your weekend!
Jeez that’s insane! Good time to own a bike that’s for sure!
Oh yea you are right when people be like "what is that". I just realized I saw an Army guy on this when I got to work few years ago. EVERYONE stared, LOL
Haha even more so when it’s a big guy on it, I think Heather fits the Z more so than I do, but we probably both look ridiculous tbh 🤷🏻♂️😂🤣
Very cool. Nice to hear your cross comparison of your big bike vs your 125. Riding my Monkey today in NE Florida pondering I kind of wish I could go faster then literally a big Florida deer 🦌 strolled out onto the road up in front of me and just stood there. We all know they never travel alone as I easily slowed to a crawl and out popped #2 🦌 right where my bike would have been had I been hauling butt . Needless to say I was glad I wasn't able to go faster at that point. Seems like we get to see more wildlife on these little bikes which is cool as long as we can be safe in the process. See lots of turtles and snakes milling around too. Its nice only using a couple shot glasses of fuel to go have a couple hours of bike fun too as you mentioned. I think our fuels prices will easily be over $3 this summer here in Florida... go mini motos 😉👍
I couldn't agree more! The monkey looks like such a fun bike, and aesthetically appealing as well! You're right, if you were on something like the 750cc who knows, you may have been going 65-70mph? scary thought. I like the idea of being lower speed and having fun while also not attracting the polices attention bc I'm only going 40-50mph most of the time. And fuel... oh jeez, these things can go a few weeks on 1 tank haha. I still have the tank the bike came with and I'm trying to run it out bc I know it sat in the bike and is probably bad, worst part is that I've easily got anothe 100 miles before I get rid of that tank lol
@@SALTxTHExWOUND 😄👍
do you know the difference between the regular and the pro ?
Looks like lots of fun
I got to adjust my lifter on mine is it pretty easy
I have a Yamaha XT250 now (traded my Z125). I knew i was going to miss my Z but, I didn't know I'd miss it this much. The XT is much faster than the Z but, the size and whippiness of the Z is so dope and fun.
That being said, for me overall, with the riding goals i have, the XT250 is the right bike for me.
Awesome, love it 😄👍
Thank you! Cheers!
You guys need dual MT07s.. fr. Best of both worlds.
When you think your 750 is bad on gas...just think about my V4, lol. I'm definitely getting a "small" bike in the near future! I''ll be putting around with you guys soon enough! 🙌🏍🏍🏍
Haha no doubt! Yesss dude, I could see you on a Honda monkey 🐵 those things are classy!!
I rode a Z125 at my msf course and I was obsessed! I never knew the differences between the grom and the Z, so it's very interesting to hear about. Def like the fact that the gas tank is bigger on the Z.
Looks like a blast. I keep going back and forth between getting a dual sport or a Z/grom as the next bike-I'll make up my mind one day🤣 have fun you two!!!🙌🏻🎉
Haha they are such a blast! I was in the same boat, I’ve wanted the crf250l for years now but I knew I’d hardly ever get it off-road and their top speed is only about 10-15mph faster than a Z/grom so I opted for the Z as I can treat it more like a sport bike yet still take it off-road from time to time. 😁
Oil pick up is in the back on the Z also. So no low oil while wheelieing. That's a huge talking point. Enjoy!!!!
Agreed! A big deciding factor for me as well 👍🏻 I think Kawi did it right
Does the 2023 z125 also have that feature “oil pick up “ can’t find Info
@@jesuschacon6135 im assuming so, my 2022 never had issues.
Can't wait till spring 22
Are you using GoPro ?
Looking to buy this bike what year it is? because I saw some different versions with completely different speedometer
This is a 2019 kawasaki z125 pro
Good fun man! Sounds pretty good also!
Thanks! Yeah for little 125’s they do sound pretty sweet!
Hey yall i got the tnt 135. If yall in NC would love to ride with yall
how do you have your hands off the clutch at the stoplight
he put it in neutral:)
I keep looking at the duke 390 for a fun bike.
I have too big of legs for the Z125 lol. So I have to go with the Grom. Even though after about the 3 hour mark, my knees start killing me lol. There’s no way to combat this either haha
Yeah I could see the Grom fitting a bigger frame for sure
Great video
Thanks!
I have always loved your vids bro. I have been a long time sub. But yall should get some bluetooth and mics. I'd love to hear the convos you and your woman would have lol.
Thank you! We actually can dual vlog and we plan on doing more here soon 😁
3:49 even Bugs Bunny wanted to see these new bikes
🐰 😂🤣
Wish I had a mini track by me 🤔
"Gas prices are getting up to $3 a gallon"
*laughs in Californian*
🤷🏻♂️ 😂🤣
Especially now
How would you compare the Z125 to the new Honda Grom?
I still like the looks of the z125 but having that 5th cruise gear is really nice on the new grom
@@SALTxTHExWOUND Yeah I was thinking the exact same thing. The updated transmission is a winner.
Just coped one..Its a blast🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️
congrats! they are such fun bikes!
@@SALTxTHExWOUND it's crazy cause now I'm so interested in the weather.......cant wait till it breaks 60 degrees
There’s other mini tracks coming in Florida besides bushnell? Hell yeah gotta find those
Yep! I’ve been told of a couple others, I’ll be sure to mention them as soon as we start planning some track time 👍🏻
What year is you z?
2019
Do a across country trip, coast to coast. Be interesting to follow your post. 😂
haha that would be insane on these bikes!
100th like 💯
Legend!
Lol what I surance these little bikes
Use Startron Fuel Enzyme always for gas I sell both Stabil and Startron and I do everything to get people to switch Startron is far superior
You were right by my house at the start of the vlog
Brooker creek? Small world, very nice little park over there!
Talks about gas prices going up to 3$ a gallon… bro I’m in Orange County ca and i just paid 4.09 for a gallon of 91 😂😂😂
Heather looks like she is visualizing she is on the track. She is passing people in her head
Hahahaa I can totally see her doing that too! 🤣👌🏻🏁
This is big bike lite version
Those bikes are mint! Totally need to look into getting a used one for a bomb around 🏍 bike
No doubt! Super clean! I think a lot of people who don’t own big bikes buy them and then “out grow” them and then decide to sell and take a huge loss if they bought new. They go for around $2,200-3,000 around here
@@SALTxTHExWOUND come on newbies buy some and sell them this summer 😂
@@davemcewen4748 i just picked up a used 2022 for $2900, i love it lol
All I heard was almost 13 minutes of "why I should have never left Kawasaki" 😜
Lmao Hey we never left, we just took a hiatus =P
@@SALTxTHExWOUND Now we're gonna have to get some Z125s😳
@@BJJNINJA215 dudeeee yes! You guys would absolutely love it!
What exhaust you have
Zoom full loop
Mini's > Full size. You cant change my mind.
haha well I love them both, but the mini is growing on me!
Shouldn't have sold the Ninja 1000
I honestly don’t miss the ninja1000, I actually had the opportunity to buy one a few months back for only $3k but passed. I don’t have much use for a heavy touring bike right now, maybe when I get a little older and my back needs a break lol great bike though, don’t get me wrong 👍🏻
@@SALTxTHExWOUND With the Akra full system and Pirellis its a totally different bike.
Pretty girl.
when i see them i wonder why grown men are on tiny dwarf bikes? you look goofy not cool dude! ridiculas to spend money on those gimmic junk bikes!
it's not about looking cool it's about having fun LOL
Mwh that’s the main thing rite their , I ride what I ride for me to enjoy to the fullest and have fun doing it , I don’t ride what weenies like you want me to ride, I can only imagine listening to weenies just like you barely getting by from check to check just to try and impress another grown man based on what he or they like to determine what to purchase! Now why would I purchase a Bigger size bike if my goal is to save as much money as possible on GAS n maintenance!!! Your a straight up JOKE!! CHEERS FROM EAST LOS ANGELES CA, RIDE HARD AND RIDE SAFE MINI HEADS!!!🤘😎👍🛵🏍️🎱💣💯
