Everybody always raves about the inline 3, V4 or crossplane 4 making the best sound. But when you're up in the revs, giving a heavy inline 4 with a good exhaust some gas..man, that raspy baritone scream! The sensation is real!
i agree. although the aprilia v4 is by far the best sounding bike! idling, fly by, acceleration, it always sounds good
You’re right, raspy baritone scream. But most in-line 4s are knowns to scream upwards of 13-14k rpm and people are just bored of that tenor range sound. Hayabusa, Z900, ZX-14R, ZH2 all don’t rev that high, about 11k rpm giving it a bassy and low pitch sound
Everyone their opinion, I think It's just all too screamy like most inline 4's.
thanks!
Agreed, this sounds great! You’d have to be delighted riding this around 😃 I have a V4 NC30 Honda, Daytona 675 120 degree crank triple, and original flat plane R1, all sound distinctive but the triple edges it for me. The Aprilia V4 and CBX1000 straight six have to be in the top 5 of all time street bikes though 👌🏻
1:18 that TC sound. Lord have mercy.
ffrrrrrrttt
The acceleration on that thing is wild!
Even crazier that a Sportster S would smoke this in a straight line.
@@Corhndog as impressive as they are , i have doubts.
The hard braking at 1:22 is pretty awesome
@@clarkeve702pointless hard push on the rear brake, ABS doing its job...
have you ridden a proper sportbike? XD
Finally the perfect video of z900 using its full potential not only the speed
Thanks
Nobody mentionned how good your positioning is when you’re taking turns (near the middle lane when you turn right, and on the right side of the road when you turn left)
In france these turning techniques are taught in police school, it is safer because you have better view on the end of the turn
This made your video very pleasant to watch because i never felt like you were in danger
I just stumbled upon your comment here and even though it's been 5 months I still feel I need to reply: thank you!! Indeed very few people notice this! A safe and controlled riding line makes a HUGE difference!!
Acceleration is wild !!!!! And the sound of the exhaust 🤯
thanks Gustavo
You were riding the heck out of that bike. I have never scraped the pegs on mine. You are giving me some confidence to go a little lower.
Wow this is nuts, love the sound, love watching you rev match, crazy speed
I can't get enough of these videos
good!
The full exhaust sounds amazing.
Thanks
Always a pleasure to watch your channel Schaaf and the wide variety of bikes (as other have mentioned) you demo.
I've discussed a few different rides briefly with you and just wanted to drop a quick line to say I just pulled the trigger on a brand new 2023 Z900 SE getting delivered in a couple days!
Can't wait to get out on it! Should be a great update to my 2010 Ninja 650.
Cheers man! Keep em coming! 🐺
Hello,
Can you tell us your feeling after riding the Z900 SE ?
I'm thinking about upgrading from a 2020 Z650 to a normal Z900.
Thanks.
Ride safe.
@@omarcherqaoui247 Hello,
Not a lot I can tell you as I live in Canada and it's currently winter here .
I did have it for a short 20 km run and what I can tell you that it will feel heavier than your Z650 during slow speed maneouvers but it feels more manageable once you're moving at traffic speeds and more planted/stable. It is a physically bigger bike.
The motor will be much smoother than the 650. I found the Z900 more rumbles at idle than vibrates, but once moving it's smooth like butter. Because I'm still at break-in period, I could only get to 5000 rpm and at that stage, it was just getting ready to take off! It's going to be a screamer, I can already tell. Hard to say yet as I mentioned, but it feels like it's about 30-40% more powerful than the 650.
The brakes, are significantly more powerful for sure.
If you could imagine your Z650 on steroids, with the engine, brakes, then that's what it's like, so far anyway. Is it worth upgrading, well, depends on what you want and what you use your bike for. I am 190 lbs, 5'10" and have 12 years riding experience for reference. Would I want to start on this? If you have some discipline while you learn then perhaps. It wouldn't be my recommendation because the 650 is more forgiving which is important while learning IMO. Things on the Z900 happen much faster so you need to be thinking and looking ahead more.
I hope this helps.
Bruh, I've never been this scared watching your pov video! The way you accelerate out of curves is nerve racking 😅
Traction control takes care of that part lol
Always awesome onboard videos! Thanks Schaaf 🙏🙏
thanks
Brutal sound and acceleration 💪
Thanks ✌️
Amazing rider, amazing bike, amazing roads!
Thanks!
You're keeping the entire bike on its toes! That judder on hard breaking is scary
exactly what Im feeling while watching this damn!
Thanks
Good Lord the TC sound at 1:16. Drool inducing. Thanks for the video, man!
Thanks for watching!
When ever i want to know what riding a certin bike hard looks like i look for this guy ... Absolute legend
Thanks Jeff
Nice to see this variety of motorcycles on your channel.
Glad you like them!
@@Schaaf Thanks for answering all my comments!
Now that's really a loud ride..!
Indeed
That's schaaf🐑 on the right bike, just like the old honda 500cc days with pegscraping😍 Sound is amazing by the way🎶
Thanks!!
My eyes are watering from the speed... and I'm just sitting behind the computer screen. What a nice ripper and Mr. Schaff can lay it down. Excellent audio too! The little chattering I hear during hard braking... swing arm bounce? I agree on the loud pipe. I've been there done that and after a while it gets old and wears you down. Plus, I don't like being that guy with the loud bike that pisses off my neighbors. Nice work sir!
I believe its his ABS kicking in
Have a '22 black and blue Z900. Just got back from a 1K mile trip To Oregon , US. I've had this bike for 2 years, 12k miles. I have to say, I love this bike the more I ride it. Wouldn't want a real loud full system. Have just a slip on and ecu flash. Still can hear the badass intake roar. Little jet for 9k US. Smooth, torquey 4 banger. Took off in 5th the other day- effortlessly. Had a '20 MT09 and prefer the Z.I know, the new ones are better. That's what they said about the earlier models. Will stay with me till the lights go out.
Love the sound of that traction control doing its thing 👌
Thanks
Best video of z900 i have seen so far❤love from India 🇮🇳 brother keep growing👍
Thanks
Schön ausgequetscht, das Gerät! Hat Spaß gemacht! 👍🙂
Dank dir
Sounds wicked. I love these Kawasakis. I’m tossing up between this and the Suzuki Gsx8s. Two different bikes.
Indeed! Two different philosophies
Superb video quality!
Thanks a lot!
Love the camera setup
thanks
Danke bruder.....
This bike is a killer...
Not crazy expensive bike but after ECU flash..... Damn she's a monster....
even stock is a monster
Bravo, absolutely surgical
thanks
The way its just kick in stupendous
Thanks
Nice bike and video. Thank you!!
Thank you too!
Brilliant bike but I cannot get over the looks, especially the nose.
Glad I went with the GSX S750 wich I think is so good looking 🎉 and even better sound.
Great riding man
Thanks man
Caning never goes out of style!
I really like the Z900 sound. It has this deep growl to it. Definitely on my middleweight naked bucket list.
Thanks
I got mine 3 months ago, I'm scared of it sometimes
What do you mean "middleweight" this is 950cc bike haha, middleweight would something around 500 or 650cc.
Was about to say what a mean raw beautiful exhaust sound 😁
Hehehe
You under-rotating the rear into just about every corner had me puckering ngl lmao
Crazy, what a bike
Thanks
Even though loud, it does sound really good! As you mentioned I think rider wise it'll be better then for bystanders.
Makes me want to get my slip on for my '08 Z750 now. But sadly I can't yet, one of the reasons is cause I don't know which one.😆
So many nice options! I do want the E approval obviously.
I also do love the fact it doesn't rev sky high but still pretty much in a nice rev range maxing out at around 11/12k RPM's.
Being quite new to riding and to my bike i can't imagine me riding my bike the way you do, or even close to that. So hat of to you.
It seemed hella quick, I mean mine is quick as well, even though I haven't thoroughly checked all of it's potential just yet.
Thanks man
kulaklarımın pası silindi.❤
Thanks
Loved it
thanks
This is sick ❤❤
Thanks
man merkt auf jeden fall deine erfahrung und deinen echt tollen fahrstil :) die kurven so sauber, perfekt am gas, wirklich toll zum zuschauen! daumen hoch.
by the way, hat das gerät eigentlich gar keinen quickshifter? dieses gas zurückdrehen bei jedem schaltvorgang ist wirklich der einzige schönheitsmakel an diesem video!
meines Wissens ist die z900 (leider) noch nicht mit Quick Shifter ausgestattet. Ob die 2024 Version einen bekommt, ist noch nicht bekannt.
This is my dream bike solely for the way it sounds unless there is something else out there that sounds better❤️
Nice!
H2 sounds wicked, but I'd be done in a week.
The way you ride is so scary, come to think of it you actually showed us the full potential of that motorcycle. Thank you for all the effort to make this video informative and satisfying too❤️
thanks
Thanks Schaaf
No worries!
soothing ❤
thanks
Kawasaki always seems to do magic with intake growl.
My favorite naked bike :D I rode it 4 times and i'm allways smilling :D
Nice!
Damn that is music to my ears
thanks
That exhaust is fucking lit
Excellent
thanks
I was thinking about your videos and now i saw this!!!!hf!!
nice!
1:17 traction control kicking in sounded so sick
Thanks
The abs working overtime
Just the slipper clutch being a bit overwhelmed
i would love to have/own this bike !!!!, you made use off it !!!!
Thanks
Damn Z900 or GSXS1000 are def on my radar for my next bike. Hard choice lol they’re both excellent bikes
True that
Would you mind commenting on the z900 vs GSX-S750? These are the two bikes I'm considering at the moment. Love your videos btw! Whenever I wonder how a particular bike sounds I come straight to this channel!
Not really since my last ride with the 750 was many many years ago. But as far as I can remember the 750 was more stable and a bit less agile. The Z had more power from the bottom.
Schöner Oldschool-4er Sound... vom Fahren: da tänzelt der Schaaf auf der Linie, bleibt zuletzt aber doch noch Diesseits. Danke fürs Zeigen. Die Linke zum Gruß mein Lieber
Danke!
U r great rider😮
Thanks ✌️
After seeing your 2021 z900 vids I traded my ninja 650 in for one. Only a standard model though. I am not yet skilled enough to reach the limits of the cheaper suspension. But, you can go ahead and ask kawasaki for your share. :D I really love the engine on this bike. It's really smooth.
Nice!
Great vid as always Schaaf , do you use trail braking ?
Not really
Would you say the SE suspension is worth it & much of an improvement to the standard version?
do is da Angststreifen am Reifen mit Sicherheit nur no 2mm :-) Respekt.
Habe die Ehre
Martin
Danke, Martin!
Nice! Looks like a lot of clutchess upshifting going on. I guess you are the quickshifter. 😁
Well, I wish there was a QS on the Z...
ich liebe die gerade zwischendrin, kenn die strecke gut. aber sie verleitet sehr zum führerscheinverlust.. ;) echt flott in den bremszonen und kehren!
Ja, und dort steht auch ganz gern die Rennleitung ;)
hell of intro. noice
Thanks
Die Strecke hab ich natürlich sofort erkannt. Die bin ich erst vorige Woche mit meiner Lambretta hin und her gefahren um ein Gefühl für die Kurven zu bekommen. Da sind schon ein paar gefinkelte Kurven drinnen ausser den Kehren.
God I love my z900. Arguably my favorite bike I’ve owned. I’m considering trading for a z900rs at some point because I love the style more, and the slightly more relaxed ergos. But I’m not sure how much the performance will change between the two.
I have both. The Z isn't quite as comfy, but in all around performance, the Z is superior. Even the axial brakes are excellent. Ride one 1st.
@@TrustyZ900 if you don’t mind me asking. if you had to pick ONE as your only bike. Which would you go for and why. What’s the better all rounder?
I've ridden both, back to back. Performance-wise, the RS packs noticeably more punch down low especially in 1st (which is shorter) but feels like it asks for more RPM when it hits the rev limiter. Feels like they purposedly capped it, which doesn't happen on the regular Z900. As for comfort, the difference is night and day: the RS is MUCH more comfortable, from the higher bars, to the lower pegs and the much comfier seat, especially for the passenger (more to the demerit of the regular Z900, though). The suspension is much softer too, to the point that it feels kinda unsafe to be ridden hard, imo, especially with a seat and tank that doesn't provide good areas for you to hold on to.
Long story short, the RS is the better bike if you just want to cruise and do longer trips, generally staying on the speed limits but with a lot of power on reserve if the situation demands. The regular Z is probably better on the streets due to being smaller if your country permits lane filtering/splitting but the softer suspension on the RS can be better suited for this scenario if the streets on you city don't have the best quality. The regular Z also is better if you have a more spirited riding style, as it has suspension and ergonomics better suited for this. This area is also further enhanced by the SE version (which I currently own), with the Ohlins suspension and the Brembo brakes, especially if you like messing with the suspension setup and really tailoring it for your style of riding.
When I tested z900 my first thought was: this bike is definitely sounds ok with standard exhaust.
This zard system is just an overkill.
it doesn't even sound nice. Except for the low revs it's nothing but loud
@@Schaaf Zard is the world's worst exhaust, Cacophonous & Ear-splitting
@@chirag4 do other brands have other characterstics? For example leovince often sounds tinny or shark adds volume
@@FetusK1cker never heard Leo Vince or Shark but I have Full System Titanium AKRA, on my Trident 660 & Gen 3 Hayabusa both, and a Termignoni Slip On on X-Diavel. The one on XDiavel is the loudest & I wear Ear Plugs or Air Pods Pro for noise cancellation, while riding Ducati & Triumph, but surprisingly not needed for Busa
@@chirag4why don't you go back to stock or change exhaust if those 2 force you to use headphones?
Cool
Thanks
People in the next village love you
They adore me
😄
Which road of Lower Austria is this? SO DOPE I wanna travel there
I'm glad u're making sure the ABS and the slipper clutch are working properly 😂. Other than that, how do you say "sachma tut das Not dass das Moped so laut is" in englisch? Zard's are good on some classic and modern classic bikes but I'm not a fan. I was a fan however of the z900 for the longest time but nowadays I would rather buy the RS tbo.
Hehehe thanks mate
wenn ich noch keine hätte würde ich sofort eine kaufen 😄
Hehehe
I have a full Zard system on my street triple and without the db killers it is absolutely bonkers. Love it!
Cool
This bike is deeply embedded impressive . Your skills on clutch and throttle is great control between down shifts
Thanks a lot Ashton
Which country do you ride? I wish the Netherlands have quit roads like this! Great skills by the way.
Since you have riden Z900 SE and MT 09 SP what do you think is the best bike?
Wow,what a sound... no quickshifter on the SE? Not even as an optional?
hallo schaaf . hast du da den Mitas Sport irgendwas oben ? wenn das die z vom rundenvergleich auf 1000ps ist . nur Interesse halber 🙂
Hooligan machine....😁😎👍
Sure is!
Wahnsinn, klingt auf jeden Fall noch besser als meine Gsx s750 mit dem Shark Slip on (ich nutze das gleiche Mikro für die Aufnahme btw). Die z900 check ich mir wsl eh als Nächstes 😎. Ich finds immer geil wie die Grünwähler-Radfahrer den Kopf schütteln oder sogar den Mittelfinger zeigen, wenn ich vorbeifetze! Ich denk mir dann immer, jetzt erst recht.
Weiß nicht, ob man damit der Motorradfahrer-Community einen Gefallen tut. Wir werden noch drauf angewiesen sein, uns nicht jeden Nicht-Fahrer zum Gegner zu machen.
@@BlueberryFennec da hast du recht, ich mach mir auch nicht jeden zum Gegner. Mein Bike ist zu 99% legal, das Einzige, was man bemängeln könnte, sind die Hebel, welche eine KBA Nummer haben und man die theoretisch eintragen lassen muss. Allerdings sind mir die Öko-Radfahrer, denen der Verbrennungsmotor nicht ins Weltbild passt, völlig egal und begegne ihnen mindestens genauso respektlos, wenn sie mir schon aus der Ferne den Mittelfinger zeigen, obwohl ich nur ganz leicht am Gas war.
@@BlueberryFennec ..und das mit dem Angewiesen sein, glaub ich nicht. Der Elektromotor kommt sowieso zu 100% und dann gibts keinen Lärm. Wir werden uns alle noch umstellen müssen, weils einfach der bessere Antrieb ist. Ob das aber so viel umweltfreundlicher wird, wage ich zu bezweifeln, noch dazu gehts in Asien und Amerika munter weiter, während für uns alles viel teurer wird.
@@adalbertusignatius4967berechtigte Punkte, stimme ich zu 👍
Hahaha
Lái hay quá!
Thanks
I read your captions of course, but the thing got me most curious is what’s your shutter speed? 1/48 or 1/60? or Auto? I like how your videos especially this one show subtle feeling of speed through motion blur 😮 @schaaf
Auto
@@Schaaf interesting. Thought ND filter + 1/48 for cinematic feeling would be the choice. I guess frame rate matters more than shutter speed.
Geiles video wie immer! Würdest du die z900se oder die gsxs750 nehmen?
Kommt drauf an
Thanks for the amazing videos Schaaf. Is the sound of this full exhaust (euro 5 legal?) in this video similar loudness to what you hear inside the helmet? I currently have a slip-on (SC Project S1-GP), and it is really quiet inside the helmet at 6th gear, 70mph, 5000rpm highway riding. I am looking for something I can hear inside the helmet at this speed. Thanks!
It will never be the same inside the helmet because in real life there's wind noise, in my videos not ;)
yo sir! may I know the camera and mic settings do you use?
❤❤❤
thanks!
Klasse 👍 leider ist mir die z650 sowie die z900 zu klein 😢
Ja, ist tatsächlich nix für lange :)
OAG!
Daunk
The vibration. What's the cause?
Not sure if you're riding at the same pace compared to your most recent Z900 video, but you were not scraping any pegs at that video. So seems like scraping is not an issue with normal Z900. Can you verify that ? Perfect video again very well riding !
As far as I'm aware this is my most recent Z900 video?
@@Schaaf I meant non SE version, the one you drove 3 years ago. Thanks for verifying :)
Hi Schaff, I’ve Seen you riding down this road fairly often, would you mind sharing where it is? I’m from Italy and Austria is not too far 👍🏻👍🏻 cheers
I don't give away the location of my test road, I'm sorry. But I can guarantee you that Italy has probably at least 10000 roads that are better than this one :)
@@Schaaf fair enough😁👍
I have the RS ✌️
nice
Why the camera is shaking when you breaks hard? What makes this vibration?
Super gefahren wie immer !
Wieso stempelt das so beim Bremsen? Oder ist es das ABS ?
Die Anti Hopping Kupplung war irgendwie überfordert
@@Schaaf vielleicht nicht für solch aggressives Bremsen gedacht :D denke mal die meisten fahren damit nicht so 😂
Well, at least like maxwrist this dude doesn't crash every third day.
Sounds wild! What would you choose between Z900 SE and MT-09 SP?
Z900
@@Schaaf Z900? Why?
