The goat kawaski ninja reviewer is back at it! Great video ray! 💪
Hey Sludged, I know you are doing well. Thanks for Commenting and being apart of the Channel and thank you you for the kind words!! Have a AWESOME Thursday!!🙏🏻
@@RayBowdenRides thanks ray been doing lots of miles on my mt-10 and life is good brother!
Your videos are excellent. You give a very thorough review. Keep up the good work. God Bless you. Make America Great Again 🎉
I hear that ✅️, Thank you and have a AWESOME Day!
Awesome review Ray! Buddy of mine who is an older rider returning to riding after many years is getting this one. The livery looks so cool, has loads of pep and the aftermarket upgrades are endless. Really nice bike. Thanks Ray!
Awesome chug, got you another ridding buddy huh? Have a good one my friend!!
@@RayBowdenRides Yeah, he does not have his bike yet, but he researched some bikes and landed on this one. It’s a very cool bike and right for his situation. I’m still contemplating the Suzuki GSXS 1000(???) I tend to mostly ride solo though Ray. I find many group rides usually have some hooliganism non-biker types who happen to ride bikes, if that makes sense??
Have a great weekend coming up Ray and to all in the community!🫡
awsome vid cant wait to get my ninja 500
Thanks for Commenting and being apart of the Channel Matthew 🙏🏻. Let me know when you get it!! Have a great rest of your week!
you too i will they dont get to australia till late november early december
@matthewcarson-k6r OH ok, I'm Excited for you Matthew- stay in Touch and talk to you later!!!!
Good Morning Ray 👋👋👋☀️🙂Great Review 👍😊 Appreciate your Passion for Motorcycle Hobby . Stay safe buddy
You too Derek , Stay safe and have a Great Day!!!!!@
Love The pop up graphics that you are doing ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍🙂 Excellent
Thanks DereK ,appreciate your input buddy thanks.🙏🏻
Awesome review as always Ray! The funny thing is, I was just doing some thinking to myself last night and was like “I’d like to see Ray review the new ninja 500 KRT” . Behold I wake up today get my coffee , check the weather etc. Then I seen a RUclips notification from Rays channel & boom there it is in all its glory what I had asked for! God is good! My main question for you Ray is how is it on the back? I noticed you was pretty much straight up during your ride & you gave it a 5(BEST) on the chiropractor scale so I figured it was good for us older gents. I’m torn between this & the 650 but the 500 is about $3k less. So if it isn’t hard on the back the price isn’t going to be hard on the wallet! Then I’m sold The 500 would take me a lot less time to save for! And by the way Ray you can get the ‘25 Ninja 500 non SE in black w/ ABS for $5899.
If anyone is looking into a power bump for this bike 2WDW is the company to talk to they really put in the work! You get what you paid for & then some!
Stay Safe
Wear Gear &
God Bless!🇺🇸
God bless you too my friend!! It is very Comfortable no doubt. Thanks for Commenting and Watching and stay in Touch my friend 🙏🏻.
I just bought this exact bike for my first bike and haven’t ridden it yet but I’m so excited
Awesome!! Congratulations my friend you'll love it!!
If you are new to sport bikes remember cold tires don't grip well. Don't get crazy until tires are warm. About ten minutes driving. If you leave a parking lot on a cold bike and hit throttle tires can slip cause a wreck
@cirrhosismoses9543 Excellent Advice- Thanks for Commenting my friend 🙏🏻.
@@cirrhosismoses9543 thanks for the advice 👍 I didn’t know that but I will definitely be careful with cold tires 🙏
Thank you for the video. I just got my bike yesterday. It’s going to be first for me ever. I believe it is going to be fun. Do you have any recommendations for first riders?
Just take it easy- wait a little while before you go on any huge group rides. Always wear your Helmet!! Stay in Touch and let me know how your doing!!
Man you get plenty of bikes to ride. I am still thinking about a base model for sport touring
This one is sure cheep enough Adv! Thanks for Watching and Always being apart of this channel my friend 🙏🏻. Have a great Thursday!
That's an awesome looking beginner bike, I guess it would do ok on the highway.
Yea Shawn, it's not a 1 liter torque Monster. But is very capable on the highway!!! Thanks for Commenting my friend 🙏🏻.
@@RayBowdenRides I have a 1200 torque monster, gotta hold on tight when you really twist the throttle.
@shawnaymond i bet you enjoy the torque your bike makes! Nothing like Torque!!!
I saw that a Z1100 might be coming from Kawasaki.
@shawnaymond oh its coming Any day- can't wait Shawn!!
Hope you have a Great Day Ray 🙂👍🌄
You too!!!!!
This bike looks really nice
It sure does - it's a beautiful bike in person!!! Thanks for Watching and Commenting my friend!!
awesome and thorough review!
Thanks for Commenting and Watching my friend 🙏🏻. Have a great Week!
A great looking bike. Great stuff Ray🤙
Thanks Wes 🙏🏻, great talking to you again my friend!! Stay out of trouble this weekend!!🤣
Always my friend and good talking to u too,enjoy the weekend mate
@wesontwowheels thk you!
@@RayBowdenRides 🤘
@wesontwowheels 🙌
love the video ray!
Thanks Wadee!!! Have a great Thanksgiving my friend 🙏🏻
Great looking bike ray great job on the video and remember the license plate
Dang it your right!!
Going to buy one now thanks
You'll love it!! Stay in Touch my friend!!
I truely believe that each person has a preference. But labeling the 500 as a beginner bike is selling it short. My daily commute is 6 miles to work all curvy 2 lane. 6 miles to the gym on 4 lane with a 55mph speed limit. Yes this is a good beginner bike, but it's also a great bike for experienced riders that didn't want to spend more and averages 62MPG. Just my opinion.
That's so true 👍. Thanks for Commenting my friend 🙏🏻.
@RayBowdenRides absolutely LOVE your videos. I don't know your age but I'm 50 and most people say "too old for a sportbike" 🤣 I don't like those people
@pigskinnut4volsify Me Either 😂❗️, Happy New Year my friend!!!
Small bikes are just more fun 🤘 she picks up speed pretty good.. and that KRT edition looks amazing.
I think so to Brandon! Have a Fantastic weekend Brandon- Stay Safe and talk to you again soon!! 🙏🏻
@@RayBowdenRides yes sir, you do the same!
@brandonclement thank you!!!
Take care always!
Thanks 🙏🏻
How is it on the wheelie department? Thank you sir… ❤
If you were a smaller guy it might be real good but I'm 200lbs! Thank you my friend for Commenting and Watching 🙏🏻
During testing, did you feel that the bike seats caused you to slide forward toward the tank? Thanks for the review.
No i didn't, but i weigh 200lbs too. BFD THANKS for Watching and Commenting 🙏🏻. Have a AWESOME weekend my friend!!
Looks pretty sweet. Needs a slip on exhaust for sure.
For Sure a little exhaust tune up!! Have a good one buddy!!
Just got approved for this after killing my 300 to water intake
Excited for you! Let me know when you get it 🙏🏻.
I still see lots of videos posted to YT asking "Will it do highway speeds?" How many times does that question have to be asked? So yes, it will do highway speeds. I've got the last year KRT 400 and last weekend (in Minecraft) I was steady running around 110 on the freeway so yes, I'm sure this one with a slightly longer stroke will manage to "do highway speeds" LOL
Definitely it will do highway speeds🤣 , Thanks for Commenting GPD - and Have a AWESOME weekend my friend!!!
I actually like the new version of this bike. The tinted windshield is a nice touch. But, would the SE version come with the tinted windshield too?
No tinted windshield but it is taller!! It's a AWESOME bike and Value. Thanks Dejaun for Commenting buddy! Have a AWESOME weekend!!🙏🏻
I love those new colors, besides that, are there any differences from the 2024?
talking about the normal editions, not the SE edition.
Se yes, Thanks for Commenting!!
No i don't think so. Thanks buddy for being apart of the Channel 🙏🏻.
I like more the 2024 color scheme
the black color is in the base ABS as well as
Thanks for Commenting 🙏🏻. Have a great Week and stay in Touch my friend!!
That’s an excellent bike but the Yamaha R9 is going to get my dollars come spring
The r9 is hopefully more comfortable than the R7. Thanks for Watching and Commenting 🙏🏻. Have a great Holiday season!!!
Hi Ray! 6ft 1 first time rider. (Almost 6 ft 2.) think I would fit okay on this bike?
It's bigger than it looks. I think you'll be just fine!!
Wonder what the stroked motor does though like did it increase low end torque or something or acceleration or something of that nature
It brought the torque numbers up and Hp in more of the bottom range i believe!! Thanks for Commenting!! 🙏🏻
Looks like a good beginners bike!
It is larry, Thanks for Commenting and Watching my Friend! I know your loving that Moto Guzzi huh?
@@RayBowdenRides
I am enjoying it Ray! Almost 7,000 miles even though it was in the shop for a month for a coolant leak. Otherwise it’s been a great motorcycle!
What is wrong with that??? 🤷
Good bike in general. Not just for beginners!
@T3hn00bz0r totally agree 👍. Thanks for Watching and Commenting 🙏🏻.
Raymond, hopefully the internet 👹👺 have gone away.
This would not only make a grest beginners bike, but also a house bike for the mature, genteel views of your channel.
Its got s high Chiropractic Index, looks fantastic, fast enought to cruise the highway (at legal speed, of course 🙄) and could be personalised to individual taist.
As they say in the watch collecting circles *a one and done* ( until you can afford more bikes 😊
Have a great weekend and avoid temptations😛😜🤪
You too buddy. Maybe another video this weekend 🤔👀. Waiting on a special bike to do hopefully this weekend!! Stay safe less!!! Ttyl
@RayBowdenRides Raymond, I'm sure we would love and other review.
But remember, only do one if you want too🤭 and resist all temptations 😇
@lesgillard985 I will resist the temptation😁 , Have a Great weekend Les!!
I would get one but they had to slap yellow on it. I just can’t do yellow. I don’t really like the other color schemes. Just give me an all green Ninja with green wheels.
That would be beautiful- Great idea!! Thanks for being apart of this channel James- have a AWESOME rest of your week 🙏🏻.
You, sir, have excellent taist. All Green.😊
@lesgillard985 it's would be awesome huh.
@@RayBowdenRides indeed it would 💯
What about the 40th anniversary color then? Or the regular 500 then no yellow
next review on z500 2025 model 🙏 from india
Ok let me see , I believe they got one!! Thanks for Commenting and being apart of the Channel 🙏🏻.
Are you gonna do the cbr1000 2025 and the 600rr ?
Probably not, I've owned a 2017 Honda cbr1000rr- sweet bike,no problems to report!!!
@@RayBowdenRides okay would love to see the newer ones
@ThreeDigitsP gotcha my friend- let them trade for one and I'll ride it!!
Is it available in India
Yes i believe so!! Thanks for Watching and Commenting 🙏🏻.
Really a 2025 bike with cable throttle still? Figured theyd all switch to drive by wire by now
The drive by wire really comes into play when you get the 6 AXIS imu.
What schould I get the z650 or the mt07
That's up to you, two different kind of bikes really. Thanks for Watching and Commenting!
z650
@Truckyducky thanks for Helping on the Channel 🙏🏻
@@RayBowdenRides Love your content!
@Truckyducky that's a cool name Trucky Ducky! Thanks 🙏🏻 my friend!!
Which one would you take: Ninja 500 or 650?
That's a Great question, if i was a couple years down the road from just starting riding the 650 for sure!! Or getting back into motorcycles after 3 or 4 yr extended break 650!! Or if I was a bigger person and just starting out and had some previous dirt bike skills The 650! Thanks for Watching and Commenting my friend!!!
Thanks for feedback. I guess the 500 is only for those on a strick budget, absolute beginner or focused on the lighter bike (track days?). For everyone else, with daily use and occasional appelion, 650 it is 👍
Your Very Welcome, thanks for participating in the channel and Commenting my friend!! Talk to you again soon.
@@bsandrade77650 isn’t worth the extra roughly 4,000 dollar sticker price. When you’re paying nearly 10k for a 650 new you might as well pay just a little more and get the zx6r because realistically the 650 doesn’t outperform the 500 with overall engine power much at all. The 500 has a top speed of 120 mph and the 650 has a top speed of 130 mph
waiting for cbr650r with e-clutch
Well thanks for Commenting and Watching 🙏🏻.
Mmm thats funny.... I've bee.n deleted 😮
Say what- no sir!!!
Never Les - Never!!!
No problem, Raymond. 🤙
The internet is funny down here. It has happened to other friends of mine on other sites.
I suppose if you fire a couple thousand techs, thing might get funny.
@lesgillard985 no kidding, it's not like the old days where people worked hard every day. Have a great day Les- Talk to you again soon!!!
Bloody hell... now it's not sending my full messages 😒
Loose the yellow and too much White
Thanks for Commenting and Watching 🙏🏻.
