The only reviewer who's words actually mean anything. The passion Neeves naturally exudes for motorcycles is inspirational. Thank you.

Neeves is the best reviewer out there by far I think. I bought the '19 non-abs and put some Braketech floating rotors and OZ Piega wheels. Mine is de-resttricted with full Arrow exhaust. I went to 41t rear sprocket which makes the bike feel more responsive. The soft power down low makes the bike easy to ride on the street but get up into the higher rpm and it is very powerful.

Mr Neeves the best reviewer ever, perfect 10-12 mins reviews the ideal length, any more & you zone out or move on. Love your work

I bought one of these '21 models last year after watching this video. I'm only 5'10" so I don't experience as much of the issue with cramping but he's def right about it being mellow at low revs. Almost 8k miles and several sets of tires on the bike now and its been very reliable and fun to ride.

Love MCN and Neevesy especially. Thank you for all the info and invaluable pointers. Keep up the good work. You guys save bikers' lives.

8:43 You can see some knee on elbow action. Those pegs are criminally high.

Great review so much info. I like the fact that you seating on the bike while talking about it and riding it.... Perfect review thanks keep up

Mr.Neeves is by far the BEST @the MOTO field for many years now and 101% objective as always!!! Excellent feedback about the new ZX10R. The most objective reports and what exactly is happening with a new motorcycle. Congratulations for the umpteenth time, continue with the same passion dynamically!!! Greetings from sunny Greece!!!

As a younger man I really enjoyed the late 80’s gsxr 750 then z1000. Lots of great memories and fun! Much gratitude for over100k safe miles, never once down. Recent years couldn’t be more satisfied with my ultra reliable FJR 1300. Stopped in here out of curiosity on the latest “Super Bikes”. Great review. Now in my mid 50’s it’s all about practicality. Cheers to all the riders out there. Enjoy and be safe!

I love your reviews and really trust and enjoy them . Thank you very much and keep up the great work you do 😊

I just bought this bike.my first ever sports bike..I had a ten hour ride to pick it up from South Germany. Needless to say I had aches and pains all through my body and never lasted a full tank cruising at 85/90 on autobahn before needing a stretch.however it was my first time on sports coming from xsr900. Having said that the seat is super comfy..I never got numb bum.never got wrist ache.and tall screen meant never got neck ache and despite having tinnitus my ears where fine. I am just over 6'2" with wide shoulders and long arms. The levers are set to high. And I am getting used to high pegs..my solution is yoga..it actually does help. The engine is so smooth and the brakes super powerful.And maybe its just me as its first time I've ridden a bike with plush suspension, it absolutely glides over bumpy roads like a magic carpet..I love this thing. Having less torque means its not so scary...it doesn't goad me on to do something silly and either lose my license or stack it. For a beginner I think that's a big plus.. I can cruise on it, unlike the xsr which i rode flat out all the time and worried myself . And I think it looks super trick. I am planning my first trackday and can't wait. Great review as always mate.d

Why don't sports bike manufacturers put adjustable footrests on their bikes? How hard can it be?

Excellent review as always. Thank you MCN / Mr. Neeves 😊

Hi MCN, Thanks for another great review video 👍🎥. I respect Michael’s opinions on the motorcycles that are available in the current market. Always informative and entertaining. I was recently in the market to up grade my ride and my choices came down to this bike or the S1000RR Sport. After reading many reviews and manufacturers sales spin, I just couldn’t justify purchasing the ZX10R over the BMW. Mainly for all the reasons that were outlined in this review video and here in Australia the small pricing difference (comparative to overall costs) wasn’t that much of a jump. I’ve gotta say that the ZX10R looks awesome (in my humble opinion), especially in factory colours but in saying that the BMW is gorgeous as well. Thanks for the insight on this motorcycle 👍. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺.

Great videos with REAL bikes. Good show!

Great honest review as always, thank you 🙏

Top notch production!

Fair play MCN, this is a really high quality video. The bike looks super cool too.

I love this guy and channel! The most relevant to their audience channel about motorcycles.

Fyi I really appreciate your reviews.... Respect for your knowledge and skills. Many thanks.

The most sensible automobile journalist on planet.

Neeves always gives great reviews,his own personal opinions and objective, I'd imagine a person willing to spend on a new bike won't mind spending extra on some tailoring to suit them better,would have loved to see the track section of the review but ok,the dreamer kid me always wonders if an indoor track is possible 😂

Very nice review once again by you Neevesy👍

Nice review. Well done. Cheers from America.

I ride a 2002 ZX9r and love it to bits, such a great bike but already the underdog back in its days.

Great review again from Neevesy 😎 rear sets, braided lines and new pads then this would be a solid performer 👌. Best of all still cheaper than it’s competitors even with simple bolt on mods.

Another great review! 👏✊

I have this identical bike with the exception of a non-abs version & its absolutely badass, im 46yrs old & 238lbs too

Excellent review, Thanks

I like Neevesy's proper reviews...makes me think maybe you'd do better with your own channel and could produce more in depth vids on bikes and products.

6:45 is just awesome…

Outstanding honest review that is valuable..especially for us taller riders..thank you. So would a pair of adjustable rears and taller clip ons make this bike something you could recommend for 6’ plus riders?

I have the 2016 Zx10r, which is flashed by Woolich racing and Akra pipe, and the 2020 S1000rr M pack, and the difference is no vibration at all through the bike like the BMW does and I feel more at home on the ninja, mind you it may be case of getting better tyres and getting used of the BMW

Foot peg height ridiculous. They should also try 1 inch higher bars too for comfort. Like you said we could change items if we are in a real race. I have a 2015 ZX10R and love it. Only that dash would make me want to upgrade. At 55 years old I guess I am crusty even if I don't want to be. Great review MCN, again

Thank You for the review, Crusty.

“Cramped in the legs” is all relative. I’m 5’8” and not cramped at all but I guess you giants could buy a set of aftermarket rearsets to help stretch your ostrich legs.

One thing for sure it's the most reliable and highest quality built.

My dream bike the 10R.... I don’t like that new TFT dash I prefer the old one! Great review neevsey

Well, I have one! I like your review, all you say is absolutely true, it couldn't be in other way . But I am worry about Abs on a track day. Do you know if kawasaki have thought about doing something about it? Some reprogramming or something like that. Thanks!!

Nice review!

BEST BEST BEST BEST BEST reviewer EVER love his passion for it

Always an excellent review! Dammit, I'm going to buy one but just not yet!

Love the colours reminds me of the zxr750 and the zx7r

I've had the 2011 model from new, I liked the fact it had adjustable foot pegs no longer available which actually makes it comfortable I found most of its competitors weren't its taller gearing makes it a good road bike I don't do track days so not bothered about chasing tenths I often see in reviews it come out as the better road bike which most of us are interested in

ive had every model of the z10r the last one was the se but by far the best was the 2004/5

I had a test ride on one of these a couple of days ago and this is spot on. I'm a short arse and even I was cramped, the throttle is ridiculously snatchy and the low end is absolutely shite. If you're just wanting this as primarily a road bike then look elsewhere.

Awesome riding shots. You look great 👍 on that bike 🏍 I don't know who u are but seam like a stand up guy. If I had a sick bike and lived in your area. I would have u teach me the skills. I can ride had a older ninja 750. Was a great experience smooth ride. This is like fast forward into space technology. Ready to blast off.

It always amazes me that reviewers state about how the road bike isn't the same as the wsbk bike, it's the same for any bike on the grid.

Awesome bud cheers 👍🏻

Neeves is the man 🙏 my favorite tester!

been waiting for this

Good review

6:44 i really like that.. Reminds of old kawasaki advertisements.

I would really like to hear Michael reviewing the first generation ZX-10R, I wonder what he thinks of it.

Can't belive that this bike is described as gutless, I haven't ridden a motorcycle for over 25 years and the bikes available then didn't feel gutless, and with a lot less horsepower. We're not all MotoGP riders.

Great video!...

having owned a 2014 model, Mr Neeves is smack on 100% "correctomundo".

Great review. That is all.

As a 2019 ZX6R owner, I'd happily upgrade to one of these if the 6 wasn't such a bargain. The updates are spot on for the road: LED headlights, TFT, cruise control. Price is excellent compared with other 200hp bikes. Servicing costs much more reasonable than the Europeans or Honda's rediculous triple R. As for the comfort, well it's a sports bike. It's supposed to be sporty. Don't take it touring.

Tune it,and its a whole different animal,i have a 23 and its a total beast

These bikes are like a d feel like bugaties

Thank you.

It looks really nice with this color

I love the front, by far the 2 most attractive front of the super bikes for me. #1. *The 999*

Amazing machine!

I did a test ride on ZX10R and the highlight for Me was how smooth it is,as You said nothing is happening down low but at the top it's a monster that is lifting the wheel in 4th.The worst thing about it for Me is the looks.

The zx10r is super old now, Kawasaki should have released a new one instead of a refresh. But, who am I to complain, I am only interested in supersport 600 bikes as the tracks are too small here in Sweden. Omg that scared the hell out of me... haha :)

1000CC Superbikes didn't make much sense on the road 10+ years ago, so buying one today just seems nuts. Thankfully supernakeds are where it's at now. Still powerful, but can actually be ridden without contorting yourself onto them..

looks like an epic package overall

Anybody know what song that was?

Can you do 500km in a day comfortably in this?

on the flybys, those pegs do look high up.

I'm surprised that I really like the styling. My only gripe is the high pegs. At 6'2" with a 34" inseam, it would really be cramped for me.

Question, did you turn off the traction control on why it was giving you a less kick on the acceleration?

The Pankl internals in the RR are constantly being felt at the twiist of the wrist, wow does the RR rev up quick!!!!

Not sure why this Gen 6 doesn't have adjustable footpegs. I have a Gen4 it has the adjustable footpegs. When I say adjustable there are two levels of adjustment on the Gen4.

With the intro you gotta review the RR

I am glad they put the word Kawasaki all across the bottom of fairing, it won't get mistaken for a ducati, also the Zx10r logo needs to be 3 times as large, for the visually impared part of the population. Finally I am glad they used 5 Square meters of stickers rather than paint on body work, to break the flow of what would be a stunning bike if painted, take note ducati used vast amounts of stickers on your bikes if you want them to be taken seriously in italian design studios.

The 2005 was the best year for these imo. Thing was an animal

I want to see a channel do a mega test with all the big players top spec litre bikes but instead of the usual where they test the mega limited euro5 restricted noise limited nonsense, I want to see all the bikes with after market full system/trumpets/ecu flash/and geared to match the bike, and a high octane petrol station fuel, Basically the things most people do, That would be awesome as i haven't seen anyone do that, Every big channel does the same old stock mega test but I'm sure im not the only one who wants to see this happen, MAKE IT HAPPEN 👍

Not really the road but have done for the track still waiting for a fuel gauge as well as electronic suspension as standard so I'll stick with my Zx10r 2018 atm 🤣🤣

When can we expect 2021 superbike shootout??

Agreed! That’s why the super naked category is taking off. I’d order a super naked touring like the mt10 sp. hopefully we get one in the states when they update. But the s1000xr is looking good also. I do miss a real liter bike. But like he said, we don’t want to ride like a racer to the store. Make it comfortable. Every racers changes it all up anyways. Lol. Or make the RR,RRR,M the racer. The regular bike for the street.

thank you

I had a 2005 when they 1st came out, AMAZING power for its day, paid $9500.00 for it, almost double that now so i would look for maybe an Aprilla or BMW but i am a REAL old crusty at age 66

Front end is Fugly, but everything else I love about it 🤩

Thanks Neeves. All the more reason for me to choose the S1K.

Nice review. I quite like it, especially the looks which I'm as surprised as anyone about. With regard to the footpegs, why can't they be adjustable? The GSXR's had them years ago & then stopped for some reason but it's seemingly little touches like that which make all the difference, especially in a class where sales are declining I think? People rightly expect much more from their bikes these days given how much they cost & this is such a simple fix. As is crap ABS.

Hi Neevesy - your legs are too long ! If you had legs like mine the ZX10r is perfectly comfortable !! 😂🤣😂🤣 I do love the ZX10r I had a 2012 ABS model, it was a lovely bike for a sports bike !

Makes me want one again but my knees hurt just thinking about the pegs! Yep, one of those crusty’s you mentioned here!! 😂

6:42 that gold

Gen4 ZX10R is future classic like the K5/6 GSXR. 197kg without ABS and before removing the cat. Just needed shorter gearing.

I wonder what the percentage difference of bike sales that are sold from Kawasaki of bikes that are kawi green vs any other color.

I have always seen the Kawi liter crotch rocket as a good mid-grade track bike, but that is a good point about the rear sets. Why have the rear pegs so high with those huge feelers on them if they are also shooting for it being ridden on the street. Anyone that is going to track it is probably8 going to replace the rear sets as mentioned.

Anyone got a link to some handle bar raisers?

Ugh the rider triangle seems awful. As a 2008 zx10r rider that finds the bike super uncomfortable, what are the most comfortable liter bikes stock? I want leg room!

The Gixxer 1000 still reigns supreme King of sportbikes

Great overview mate! I’m a huge Kawasaki fan but they didn’t got me with this one or the RR! Kawasaki needs to make bigger steps forward to the customers than some hyped cosmetics… move on Kawi

Huzzah finally the wait is over

My cheap Hyosung has adjustable rearsets from the factory, why on Earth does Kawasaki's flagship not have them?
