Sweet, man. $18,900 (let's call it $20,000 out the door) for a bike of this caliber is really not that bad when you consider what you are getting. And it's a bike that even big guys like me can actually get on! I especially like that. I can't even get on a Panigale. I tried once - I had to go to the chiropractor afterward! If I were in the market for a superbike/track weapon this might be the one. Way more bike than I would ever need, but you want one anyway because they are so darn cool!
Nice review, Adam. Good to see some PIR action too. This bike with discount is THE BEST DEAL in the literbike class. Sadly the roads in Oregon are so messed up after the last rough winter, often putting canyon carving riders on questionable surfaces...
1000 units for whole world? Are you sure? Where is limited label on bike? The 2019 model is limited with 500 units and has limited lable on the steering wheel.
Hi Rslax, you certainly could ride it as a first motorcycle, especially in 'low' power mode, but a better option might be something along the lines of a Z650 ABS or Ninja 650R. We've test ridden both. Review our article & videos to find out more: Z650: www.ridersdomain.com/magazine/motorcycles/reviews/2017-kawasaki-z650-motorcycle-review/ Ninja 650: www.ridersdomain.com/magazine/motorcycles/reviews/2017-kawasaki-ninja-650-first-test/
Hi Jorec - this is a really great question. Would be a fantastic comparison too. Stock for stock, it's really going to come down to what circuit you're riding at. If you're at a fast track the Ninja will do well because of its smooth, top-end biased powerband, and gentle rear suspension that puts power to the pavement in a exceptionally smooth fashion. It can also pour into a turn like no other. So if you have deep, leaned over braking zones-- the Ninja will excel here. On the other hand if you are riding at a tighter circuit with shorter acceleration and braking zones the YZF-R1M will perform admirably in these conditions. The R1M is good in the fast stuff, too-- but it won't be able to exploit its quick steering and side-to-side handling advantage. Again, great question - thanks for the comment and for watching.
Riders Domain Thanks very much adam But I'll go for the R1 For me is a best superbike best track times and that crossplane engine give me the power since 3000 rpm. like a V twin engine.
19K for this thing its not even close to a R1M suspension wise. And that dash is bogus. Yamaha got it right with their current R1 models. But if your tts all the ZX 10 line is better fit just ignore the dash. LOL
Japanese bikes always put their bikes together very well in terms of mechanics but it looks way too old school. Yamaha has gotten much better with its r1m And fz10. Everyone else seems to be stuck in the 90s.

Great review, I have the R version, unrestricted of the euro 4 crap and now has an auto blipper as a part of the ecu flash, and man I love it now
Sick man - you're living life.
Adam Waheed thanks Adam I’m loving it
and I have the real thing :)
@@AdamWaheed bumping a 2 yr old video. Which would you choose for $16k? Pristine 2017 zx10rr or the 2019 zx10r-SE? For street and track
I love the 10R rainbow.
If they ever bring back the red or any combo of red/black color scheme I'm all in
2012 had the sickest zx10r color schemes.
Really? I don't remember - I like this matte black machine personally.
Gleaming review. Outstanding.

Hi!
This Kawasaki Ninja ZX10RR is better than the 2k17 Suzuki GSX R1000?
I love mine. Put out a lot of videos on it this summer. Have not drag raced it yet but that will be coming this next summer.
That's great - thanks for sharing - where can we watch your videos at?
On my youtube channel click on my user name and it will take you there.
your video reviews are awesome ,thanks buddy
Nice video, I have a 2017 Kawasaki ZX-10R ABS that I've just put the crash protection on for it's first track day this month, can't wait !
Glad you enjoyed the video - thanks for watching.
Oh yeah? What did you end up installing? And thanks for watching.
How do you like your ZX-10R and what did you have before? I am thinking about this bike. Thank you
Riders Domain mega Geile maschiene gefällt mir total Geiles Video hammer weiter so gefällt mir g,g,Leder biker addi antwort wäre geil danke dir
As always , good review from adam.
Oregon review perfect
i knew they'd filmed this in Oregon within the first 5 seconds of the video. 503 represent! (and 541, and 971) :)
do i have to be super careful for small pot holes .. I was told that the wheels can bent easy .. is it true
I love your new hair Adam! haha
I want that bike...😌😌😌
1000 units for whole world? Are you sure? Where is limited label on bike? The 2019 model is limited with 500 units and has limited lable on the steering wheel.
Afaik they are only making 500 per year of the rr's, worldwide
Is this good for 5'9?
Everything is good n all but hate that idle sound 1:55
This ok for a first bike?

No.
Excelente review....
This one or the R1M?
Hi Jorec - great question. Really comes down to what you value and or price. What are you looking for in a liter-class sportbike?
Riders Domain
I'm just looking perfomance...best track times.
Hi Jorec - this is a really great question. Would be a fantastic comparison too.

Thanks very much adam
But I'll go for the R1
For me is a best superbike best track times and that crossplane engine give me the power since 3000 rpm. like a V twin engine.
Yeah solid choice. It is the more versatile option amongst the two. And yes, it does feel sorta like a V-Twin at low rpm.
Can this beat the shit out of S1KRR?
osm
Anyone expecting rich piana to pop out of somewhere
19K for this thing its not even close to a R1M suspension wise. And that dash is bogus. Yamaha got it right with their current R1 models. But if your tts all the ZX 10 line is better fit just ignore the dash. LOL
Boston Tricolore69 But the R1 looks horrible.
They only making 1000, feelsbadman.
Japanese bikes always put their bikes together very well in terms of mechanics but it looks way too old school. Yamaha has gotten much better with its r1m And fz10. Everyone else seems to be stuck in the 90s.
