    Discovered motorcycling late in the game (at 64) and now at 70 the weight of the bike is eveything. Picked up a close-out z400 model and wow what fun! What else can you buy that makes you feel young again? Love the channel Peter..I learned alot from you.

      4 months ago, I bought a Z500 for the same reason. Weight. It's a great machine, and I l9ve it. But I have concluded that I need more room to move my right knee. It hurts after about 45 minutes ride time. I am looking at a Honda NX500 now.

      RIGHT!! I left the dealer KNOWING that I had forgotten something. That's what it was! I had too many things on my mind this morning. Thanks for pointing that out. Great catch!

    Interesting comparison, cool bikes, thanks. Those rims and top frame highlights look good in green. I like when Kawasaki offers more full color choices, like their mostly green bikes, but also red, yellow (rare for Kawasaki), orange, or blue. Lately as of 2024, they've been mostly gray or black for stealth I guess, though stealth on a motorcycle might not be the most eye-catching for other drivers/sometimes harder to spot in traffic.

    In the US I’m only seeing the red and green options and I’m not a fan of those at all. I like that black style I’m seeing in CA. Very nice.

      All we can get is the base model with black wheels and the black and red SE with red wheels. I bought the base model because I don't want red wheels.

    Oooh, we don't get the green-wheeled one in the states. Ours is red. And the green on your wheels isn't K777-green, is it? Its their metallic green.

    I would have bought an SE if it came with those wheels in the US. Here, it comes with red wheels instead of green. I dont like the red wheels. I chose the base model for black rims. Its strange how they only have certain colors in certain countries instead of giving us more choice.

    Am I the only person to point out that the Honda is 47? something, it’s not 500cc, but your point about power is taken. I still believe however that such a small, in comparison to your nominal 900cc, they should be called 450’s.

    You look a little scrunched up in the legs. Does Kawi offer a tall seat ? Do you think it would help materially?
