This bike would sell like sliced bread on the european market. I can see all the beginner riders drooling over this, including myself
You’d think it would be a big hit, but Kawasaki doesn’t seem interested
We gonna get the ZX4R with a similar rev limit very soon 💚👍
@@aeror115 Would be really fun. Since the 600ccm 4 cylinder sports bikes vanished from the European market, there hasn't been a replacement. The R7 is simply not the same. But I honestly doubt we'll get a ZX4R in Europe due to the emissions' regulations.
@@nairamize4996 I’m confident mate trust me!
We are talking about a close to 80hp zx4r inline 4 🙃
The damn Euro emission regulations are crap but Kawasaki finally gives us a new nice bike soon!
@@aeror115 Yea in Asia and North America maybe. Europe probably not.
Proud owner here. I'm impressed by it's design and engineering. It's a priceless piece of art collection.
I'd love to be riding one of these. 500 zx4rr zx6r in stables and zx25r is the one I really need in the collection
genuinely obsessed with this paint job wish they would bring it to more of their bikes😭
Hello. I live in México city and I have a ZX25R (1 of 20) It's certainly a fantastic bike. As you say, it makes you feel the technological development of the large displacement but with the rationality or a fairly manageable 250 cc.
Saludos!!!
Hola, donde la compraste? Soy de USA Quero comprar una. Puedes ayudar?
Hi, is your bike comfortable for traveling or is it uncomfortable? thanks and greetings from Italy.
@@goosebus4664 Hola. La compré en México. Ya no están disponibles a la venta. Solo hay 20. Y hasta donde sé nadie ha puesto en venta la suya. Saludos
@@bardac9890 Hi. Yes is comfortable for traveling, but you need stop each 1 or 1.5 hours
Va a valer oro cuando si la vendes! Como le hiciste para entrar a la lista de los 20?
My daily bike is a 2018 Aprilia Tuono 1100 V4 Factory and I need this bike... I have been trying to figure out if I can import one to Canada or what to do... This would be such a riot in the city and especially at a race track. Bring these to north America!!!! Sounds like they are thinking about bring the 400 version of this to North America so will have to see how that goes, id rather have the smaller displacement version myself though!
I couldnt agree more with your enthusiasm. Beating the snot out of a smaller engine bike is a BLAST!!!
Just test rode the 2023 model of one of these today....The video doesn't do it justice, when you yank the throttle and hit 12 - 15,000 RPM it is absolutely divine. And you can do it nearly everywhere.
Oh and I bought one.
I'm jealous. 👍 From Australia
Good review, Looks like a cool little bike would love to have a blast on one, Its probably a really good idea for UK roads you could give it a good hammering whilst not chancing your licence too bad.
Thanks for your nice comment!
I really think these would be a hit in a market like the UK. I know you guys have more a history with premium small displacement bikes like the old RS250s and such.
@@Mason_van_Bike tzr 250 😊
Now there’s a bike that I’d love to ride for the channel.
I'd love one in the UK, amazing A2 level bike to move onto or a great beginner bike for an older person doing a direct access course. Would be perfect for windy A-road riding
I'd love to see in Australia too
As someone that hasn't driven something smaller than a 650 since I was 12. I would give this bike and ride and give an honest opinion. I think it would be a positive review too.
Can't wait for the ZX-4R. If they went all out and it has anywhere near 80hp I will be in heaven.
I'm afraid it's going to flop but I'm also excited for it.
@@blueridgewarden2838zx4rr didn't flop in Australia and looking popular around the world. I have 24 zx6r zx4rr
Your review style is so classy! Good job. Great bike!
Thanks for your kind words!
Great review, but the music is too loud when you're talking at some points. I wish they brought the ZX25R to Australia, I would definitely get one.
thank you im thinking about getting this bike in india., but i cant seem to find reviews in english anywhere on youtube., thanks a million now i know it has two ring mode and 4 level of traction control thank you Bro .,
In indonesia standard condition bike can get 99km/h at gear 2 redline.
Great review, thanks. I had regular 2003, and 2008 Ninja 250R parallel twins for 20 years of riding, and always imagined what a 4 cylinder inline might be like. Sounds like a fun bike. In the US, they just introduced the 2023 Ninja ZX4R, a 400 cc inline 4 engine, though almost $10,000.
Good review! I love the idea of modern technology applied to smaller displacements. Parallel twins don’t appeal to me in most applications. Not much character in a machine that requires so much interaction with the engine. It’s half the experience. I’ve always loved physically small motorcycles.
This is the video I waited years for. Thank you!
I daily a Concours 1400. If this thing came to the States around $6k, I’d slap money down in a heartbeat as a second bike.
I would use this as a track bike. Fun and affordable.
This would make an EXCELLENT cheap track bike.
I would daily the hell out of one of these, not to say it's not gonna make fun on the track.
But this one is 100% gonna be more fun on backroads than any 600 or 1000cc bike.
THIS is the dream right here, 4cyl screaming down the road.
This bike makes me drool. It would make one hell of a beginner bike lol I wish they would sell it here in the US
This was a really well done video. It covered all of my thoughts and questions. Surprised that subscriber count isn’t higher
Thanks so much!
Amazing Content!!! Appreciate It❤
Back to 90s 😍😍 Inlcine 4 250ccs
This is the only 25r English review I can find wow
This would fit perfectly into the uk market with the licencing system. This would perfectly max out the a2 lisence and its hard to find an inline 4 that fits in the a2 w/o being restricted
ZX-25R. Good Bike.
Considering national speed limit is 70mph in UK and there are cameras everywhere... this 250cc would be the most fun to ride!! Anything over 600cc in UK anyway is overkill without possibly losing your license.
Canada needs this. It would be a great replacement for my 250r.
*I can’t wait for the ZX4R to drop in America*
I'm also gonna need one for my son's first bike when he turns 16 there's a huge market here for that
I don't think displacement sells so much as the fact that in the US we get around mainly by highways where people are going anywhere from 65mph to 90mph. The old 250ccs were underpower at that speed and lacked power necessary for passing or speeding out of sketchy situations. The zx25r has like 20 more hp than those older 250s which fixes the main issue
Love the channel bro!
I see tricot, I hit like
US market is getting a ZX4R for 2023.
Mind if I ask why they limited it to 45HP? Insta-subscribed when I saw this channel. Moving to Japan next year and 399cc license seems like a no-brainer. Biking there looks unreal!
It’s just a Japanese law for 250cc bikes. Been that way since at least the 80s from what I can find online. Maybe longer.
Good luck with your move! Let’s go for a ride :)
@@Mason_van_Bike Oh no way haha literally not even sour about it. A full on inline four that sounds insanely good while not breaking the speed limit. What a dream, not even sour about the HP loss.
Thanks for letting me know 👍👍
Indo/filipino got the 50hp soon malaysia
@@Floridarollin i recommend you watch Fortnines vid on the old Honda 250 that revved to 20k, giving a bigger insight on the market for these small screamers haha!
Wish we got this bike in Australia
In Australia we are limited to bikes that don’t make more than 150KW per ton as part of the 4 years it takes to get a unrestricted motorcycle licence, so more than half the motorcycle on the roads in are 300cc or lower I reckon. They could make a killing if they can get them into this market the only good bikes you can ride as a learner in aus is the 1990’s cbr250rr or the vfr400 good luck finding one that hasn’t been thrashed.
Thrashed or not, those 1990 CBRs are the king. 250cc can’t really be thrashed anyway and they’re quite reliable. I like how zx25r is the new version of these old bikes, problem is, it’s way too heavy :/.
My first bike was a grey import '90 CBR 250RR. Best bike ever. Was awesome on the road, and even better on the track. Its still in the shed, albeit in many pieces. My second bike was actually a Baluis as mentioned in the vid. Much more tame and more suited for the city. I've got my full license now, but I'd still love to get my hands on the ZX250R even just for an afternoon to compare to the old school CBR.
Zx4r coming to united states 🏍
2 wheel Miata. I swear I think I driving my miata so fast until I look at the speedo ..the license savers!
Bring it to the u.s I want it!!!!!
The zx4r is coming to the US, might be a better fit for freeway
i'm gonna need one of these to park next to my 929 RR please go ahead and ship that to the United States it'll outsell the ground we just want that motor available
In the words of Hammond himself; I want one more than I want my next breath. Bring it to the UK for goodness sakes.
I appreciate the effort to make the review, but next time please make your voice louder than the background music.
I live in America, and don't believe the 25r is ever coming here. That being said, rumors about the ZX4r coming here are about to be fulfilled in a couple days! Patents and emissions-testing papers 'leaked' indicate a 400cc inline-4 sportbike, and Kawi is introducing a couple new models on Feb 1st! (one is clearly a small sportbike under a cover) Wheels appear to be same as Ninja 400. I was disappointed about the lack of a ZX25r, until I heard about the ZX4r based on the same bike and engine. I like the slightly 'more Goldilocks' power output, while still being a low torque, relative high-HP, screaming inline4. Appears it'll make somewhere around 70+hp and should weigh about the same as the ZX25r. Very excited, I may be seeing my next bike unveiled any day!
Would love for this to come to the united states
is this bike better than ninja 400?
Many times yes
hey man, how tall are you? im interested in getting one of these
I’m 6’5”. I actually fit on it surprisingly well, though definitely felt a little cramped after a long day on it.
Wait this is the sound with a legal Akrapovic with baffles and cats in????
WTF why does it sound so good?
This video just makes me more excited about the zx4r
I really hope the zx4r come to Europe
Yes! This akro is a road legal factory option in Japan.
@@Mason_van_Bike daaaaaaaaamn
Please please please come to Canada Kawasaki
do you need to be 18 to ride this motorcycle? is it suitable for 18 years?
I would love to have one of these in the US. I never buy new bikes but I’d pay as much for this as I’d pay for a 1000.
Man, that thing is overstyled. Why be smooth and beautiful when you can put another "aggressove" crease in it.
i still prefer the 250 to the 400... but we will never get it...
quoting Vegeta from TFS "I wanna I wanna I wanna !"
We need this in 400cc version.
Beautiful bike, but the price point here in Indonesia is just ridiculous. It costs about 2500$ (115mil IDR) more than the CBR250RR (75mil IDR).
$2500 ?? Are you high or what?
Last time I bought this bike it cost me $ 8000 in 2020
@@aditzoffboomu1765 oh yes I mistyped it
Price to pay for performance
Does the gas tank cover with plastic abs like yamaha r3/r125 or fully solid metal?
the tank is all metal 🤙🏽
I want this in England so bad!how do I import one?
please type price♻️
How much her price in france i need one
Can I buy this in Canada? I am from USA I would want one.
Japan and South East Asia only, at the moment.
Damn so sad these aren't exported to the EU market.. would make a great daily bike and would bring hell of fun also because highways are limited to 120km/h max here in switzerland
Does anyone know if the bike is available in North America? Look to buy one soon.
no, but I have one available
You should mozaic out the speedometer. The police have been going after people who post videos on RUclips and charging them with reckless driving and shit. They arrested some Japanese guy who posted a funny video of himself driving his kei truck and showing how you can do drifting on the road after it rains.
seems like a very long crank time to start it, that'd annoy me
I wonder why Kawy creates 4 cylinders for just 250cc?
400cc coming now
Pity emissions has stopped this coming to Europe
52 HP !?? No way Give me a break !
Ruecker Oval
