Introducing my new bike. A Kawasaki 2009 ZX10R. Last ride of the 2021 season

This is my first ride on my now new bike. At this point, this is a test ride before putting in an offer. This is in No way a review. The bike is down a tooth on the front sprocket and up two teeth on the rear sprocket. So i don't trust the speedo.

    Thank you for this video. I just bought an FZ09 and I was freaking out about having to drive that thing home because this is my first bike and it seems way too strong for me.

    • @bikesonroads
      @bikesonroads หลายเดือนก่อน

      It is powerful. But remember, it's Only as powerful as you make it. I was freaking out about getting my first big bike (a 600cc race bike) thinking it would kill me. But, even after several 1000cc hypersport bikes, nakeds and touring bikes, I've never ridden a bike that is uncontrollable. The key is to have a good hand-brain coordination. And B-mode helps to practice that if you're new to big motorcycles, or if you're a returning rider after a long break. Believe in yourself, and take it easy. It's a lot more fun to slowly get better, then to suddenly stop. I recommend trying some slow maneuver and technical skills practice. It will make you more competent in 2 months of riding than most people are in a lifetime of riding. I practice MotoJitsu. But there are a lot of good alternatives. Ride safe, and don't rush😊

    I currently have a MT-09 with S23 tires and the way you describe the S22 feels very similar to my expirience with S23. At the edge of the tire it feels like I'm suddenly just loosing support I could not believe that there is about 2cm unused area on the edge, I really don't like that feeling. After 4k km my rear tire started to get a flat spot in the middle, I'm at 5,5k km now and I feel like getting that rear tire to 6k will be impossible, I will probably get a set of M9RR for the next season.

Honestly, I'm probably going back to M9RR again when it's time for a tire change. DR3 and DR4 were good tires, and DS SP V3 are amazing. But they're not as good as the M9RR, in my opinion.

      Sorry for the late reply. Yes, like claragonzalezdiaz1967 said. M9RR are my favorite sport tire for actual use. If you're going to go full throttle to the very limit, the Diablo Rosso IV Corsa would be the best, Diablo Rosso IV would be my second choice. But if you only ride hard AF some times, and regular rides most of the time, with even some rainy day rides. The M9RR's are unbeatable in the sport category imo. Not Once have I gotten an M9RR out of shape. I've scraped pegs in almost freezing temperatures and they never even hinted at breaking traction. I've lost the Rosso IV a handfull of times, but never crashed. So far... Rain or shine. I trust Metzeler M9RR with my life. No other sport tire gets that vote of confidence.

      I have no experience with the Dunlop Qualifier Core unfortunately, so i can't say if they are better, equal or worse. From pictures, i can tell the Dunlops have a sharper profile. More agile and will probably tip in quicker and easier. But for road use, the less sharp profile of the Metzelers are going to grip better for general road use. Mind, this is all based on pictures. Not real experience with the Dunlops.

In my opininion any tyre that is made to work on the Isle of man TT race is good enough for me. when the stockers race they have to use Road tyres so these are a proven tyre with race pedigree and the most important bit is that the TT race course is all public Roads at altitude the mountain road and these roads are wet cold rough bumpy greasy depending where you are on the track and thats what we all ride on in real life.

      @MasterAaron Yes. I have ridden the Road 6. Spectacular tires. Sticks well at all temperatures (within reason) and handles better in water than anything else on the market (not counting wet racing tires). If you like riding hard in the twisties and only do some freeways now and then, I'd say their probably a fantastic tire. But a sports tire will last shorter, so for commuting, I'd stick with the Road 6. 85% of us can't get that tire to its limits anyway. If you are one of us 15% who can. M9RR will be a lot better for a nice day on in the twisties. You really just have to be honest with yourself. Are you at a point where you may Need a sportyer tire? Or do you just want a cooler tire? That said, I 100% recommend people try new tires on their bikes. You'll feel like you've got a new bike and need to familiarize yourself with it all over again. It opens doors to experiences and an understanding of what kind of variables you prefer in a tire.

I really want to try the M9RR in the cold 2c or below etc. And definitely I'm one of the 85%, pretty high lean, but I've been too scared to hit the grip limit on road, like hard acceleration and braking at different lean angles.

      @@MasterAaron I would not recommend M9RR for sub 7 degrees celsius. The rubber will be hard and the grip low. I've ridden a season start and a season end with M9RR's, and at those times of the year, the sporty focus of the tire becomes a problem. M9RR isn't the fastest tire to warm up, and at colder temperatures, they simply don't heat up enough. At those temperatures all sport tyres struggle, really. And there can often be damp roads at temperatures like that.

That's even true when i go on track. We don't have huge tracks here in Norway, so top speed isn't the most important stat. A 600cc sport bike is the perfect track bike.

This makes me wonder if the tire has had an upgrade from single compound to dual compound? Good if this is the case. Silica already lifted the bar and if there is further improvement to the wear it can only be good unless this makes the grip bad on high powered bikes or makes the bike unstable.

    M7RR o M9RR?

    • @bikesonroads
      @bikesonroads 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      M7RR if you're mostly going on relaxed rides and commuting. They are usualy about 25% cheaper then the M9RR and do a good enough job, even for some spirited rides and fun track days (I've used M7RR on track personally, and they do very well on wet and dry tracks). The M9RR is what i would choose for hard riding, track days and joyrides with minimum commuting and freeway rides. They do those things with ease, but the cost makes it pointless to pay 25% more then for the M7RR if you're not going to use the litte extra performance. The M7RR's are more then enough for 90% of all riders. But if you really want that extra performance, i have yet to find a better sport road tire. I'm using the Pirelli Diablo Rosso 4 on my S1000R right now, and i had the Rosso 3 on it before that. Next tire i'd buy right now is either M9RR for fun times, or alternatively the Michelin Road 6 if i want a "usable for anything" kind of tire, for road trips and fun rides throughout 2024. The Road 6 Can do track days, but they are a little behind the sport tires. Hope this helps🙂

      The M9RR is the direct replacement to the (older) M7RR. Metzler claims a 10% improvement in grip over the M7RR. So either will be a good choice depending on price and availability (and what type of riding you will be doing).

    I have used M7RR and S22 on a 2018 Z1000SX. The former has a fatter feeling, with slightly more compliance and plenty of hard braking grip, but they made steering slower and heavier. The S22 have much sportier handling. I find them better at entering turns and holding a line through corners. The front S22 does wear more quickly, however. The rear tire wears less quickly.

      Yes. I always recommend M7RR for people who wants a cheap sporty tire that can go fast in bad conditions (within reason). M9RR is a bit more "good conditions" focused, but still my favorite sport tire. I now ride a S1000R with Pirelli Diablo Rosso 4 on it. The tires are So fast, but overkill for me. I prefer the M9RR's exactly due to the flatter profile.

    worst tyre gonna rate it 2.0 out of 5.0 no traction when you go on a corner with water for sure it will skid

      I never had an issue on my MT-09. Possibly due to how the bike handles or some other factor. However on my new CBR650R, they were Dangerously terrible. I tok the bike on track and it was slipping a lot. Then it started to rain, and i was Barely able to corner, break or accelerate at all, which made me the slowest on track. The D214's are Completely useless. Came back to the same track 3 weeks later with the Metzeler M7RR tires on and it was raining again. This time i was the fastest on the track. There is Such a big difference between a good and a bad tire.

    I think the rear has 3 compounds, soft, medium and hard. The front only has 2 soft and medium for better grip on straight line breaking. Which fits with you saying the ABS coming in less. Also probably the reason the front wears faster than the rear.

    I’m running OEM S22’s on my Yamaha MT-09 SP (189kg wet) and I weigh 85kg without gear. Currently at 7100km and getting near the wear pattern, will have to replace the tires at 8000km. Supposedly the OEM tire is 1 compound and softer in the middle, the retail S22 is supposed to get almost double the mileage I was told, since it is a 3 compound tire with a harder center section. Are you sure you were not using OEM grade S22’s? I’m considering the M9rr too, but I live in Trondheim where the weather can be quite cold and lots of rain, so I want a tire that heats up fast and dies well in the rain. It was nice to see your video. I lived in Oslo for 10 years and moved back home right when corona said hello.

    • @bikesonroads
      @bikesonroads ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, it's real S22's from Bridgestone. But you have to take into consideration that the Z1000SX is 230+ kg, front heavy and i ride pretty hard (no track rides). The wear pattern showed that the center line is fine for probably 7-8K, but the sides were melted away before i reached 3500km.

    I agree completely about your criticisms of the T-Plane crank - just can't see the point. The older, now discontinued Tiger 1050 had that generation's speed triple engine (albeit slightly down-tuned) and that would have been the perfect option for the current GT/Road model. I'm also considering the z1000sx for exactly the same reasons...

  • @strimmeestrimme
    @strimmeestrimme ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes. You’re cruising. There is no way I take out more than 3800 km from the 9rr. With a kawa sx

    That is fast. All the regular Z1000's I've seen on YT with basically the same 1043cc four aren't any faster and these guys at magazines do it for a living.

    Left hand wear is normal because you use the clutch alot and also right hand dosent rub against the grip as much as left. The throttle spins with the right hand while the glove rubs the grip on the left.

      Ya that’s right and they still lasted 2 years! That’s pretty good for 100 dollar gloves that’s basically there lower tier glove.. the more you spend the better glove you get from Dainese. Motorcycle gear is pricey…

      I don't know the prize in other countries, but i payed the equivalent of 100 US dollars for mine from the official dealer here. So not very cheap.

    S22 front wears out at 7000 kilometer. Problem with sport tyre is they will struggle with fully load 1000sx 2up. It will behave squirmy. Angel gt 2 is made for much heavier touring bikes,still sporty tyre for street. Swap to 55 profile and 1000sx will turn in faster and feel much more agile

    • @bikesonroads
      @bikesonroads ปีที่แล้ว

      I never rode 2up on my bikes. Never had more then 3-4 kg (6-8 lbs) with me. I'm 70kg (155lbs) + gear. Didn't have this problem with the Metzeler M9RR. Only the S22. Same issue came up on my ZX10R. Ether i'm breaking to much/to hard, or the tire isn't designed for a 200kg bike with 80kg of rider on it. In general, the Bridgestone rubber compound seams too soft. Witch is great if that's what the customer wants, and if the rider isn't someone who rides hard. But my experience on multiple bikes, 3 bikes to be exact, is that S22's are never able to get much more then 5000 km at best.

    I been riding stock s22 on same model. 6500km , 3.8 mm rear, 2.5-2.8 front. Good tires but front is way to soft. 190/50 is to slow turning 1000sx needs 55 profile when riding in the alps. I still think Angel gt2 is a better street tyre. Metzler Z8 is also top on my list. If you never ride track s22 is mediocre. Was riding in +45 celcius during summer and it was hard like a touring tyre. Metzler's are so supple and Pirelli is super sporty. I never been happy on bridgestones. I owned 2 honda, 3 Kawasaki, 2 Suzukis. 1 triumph. And maybe close to 20 pair of tyres.

    My MT09 engine light was on a couple ride after i wash the bike. And somwhow the battery voltage drop to around 12volt and engine wouldn't start up. I have to use a portable jumpstarter to jump start the bike and it run fine now. But i not sure why the engine light is still on.

    • @bikesonroads

      Didn't you get it checked? Could be something that needs attention.

    • @bosszola

      the check light went off after a couple long ride. I'm quite sure it was the low battery voltage causing all that.

    Kawasaki have the weight balance so the pressure on the tires are equal and that's why they handle way better in the rain then a Harley , Harleys do not handle very well in the rain and fish tell easy and that's been my experence

      Jo. Jeg kjører mye. Men med lite tid og ødelagt filme utstyr har det blitt vanskelig å få filmet. Gjorde ett hederlig forsøk men fikk ikke lyd. Da ble jeg oppgitt og tok en pause. Så solgte jeg ZX10r'n og kjøpte meg CBR650R. Har lenge tenkt på å lage videoer med den, men har ikke tid eller video utstyr lenger. Tenker jeg skal få laget noen mobil kamera videoer snart. Skal prøve å få ordnet utstyr også, men det er ikke topp 10 prioritet akkurat nå.
