I've done 12 k miles on 390s. Absolutely no problems. Based on the forums and my experience the 390 is very reliable. I can afford any adventure bike available, but the 390 is my choice. Persevere with the 390.

just ordered one in black last week super hyped i was thinking about going the austin racing route with the exhaust system if i cant understand them then yoshi (austin racing is euro brand)

Great vid! I have a 23 and live in a townhome community so I face the same problem. I commute so I can’t blast 90+db at idle at 5-6am. I’ve been looking at the Yosh pipe as I like its sound the best. Thanks for the info. Gotta check out your other vids.

I have the same bike and exhaust. Way to loud for me, gave me a headache. I bought the k20 baffle and its perfect for me.

You can fix this issue with a marble

I’m just about to buy one!

Very nice sound

I have a 22' Anniversary and the abruptness is soooo frekin extreme. It isn't something I think I can get used to and am really weighing my options now.

It's not a throttle slack issue. It's electronic. The fuel shuts off when the throttle closes

IVANs will fix that. And everything else annoying about the bike

Problem I see is you can buy the concours for about the same amount as the z 900 and you get a extra 65 hp and more torque.

Ive had the originals from the 70s, ive owned the real kawi eliminators from the 80s the drag strip rockets with 100 hp inline 4s in a cruiser frame, also owned a couple kawi concourse from the early 2000s up to the big boy the GTR 1400, but I do miss my old kz 1000s from the 70s , just a fun bike and would run forever just like any CB Honda from the era.

Why i am going for the akrapovic slip on, although that may end up being not much over stock in terms of loudness.

It sounds so nice🫡

I have the same problem with my 2024 yelow ball .on off snatches. All the time .3 weeks old . Not good may trade it back in .

I've always wondered why anyone complains about stock tires or stock seats. I expect both to be terrible on a new bike.

My 2022 doesn't have a "snatchy" throttle and the Dunlop tires are really good, plus I'd never stop for a stupid turtle.

Just got the 4r 2 days ago, i love it

For all of the nerds out there, 106db peak at 8k rpm is 4X louder than the factory exhaust. The difference is nothing short of shocking.🤣

Woah... It's loud. 90db at Idle. It does sound proper. Side note. I use Original Bike Spirits as well. Great stuff.

Got this as a first bike. Feeling it out period was about 500 miles since my work commute is mostly highway, but once you feel it out it's a blast to fling around. Stock tuning wasn't noticeably bad at first, but now that I'm comfortable on it you feel it fall after 10.5k where they nanny it. I'm not a heavy dude but the rear shock settings were too soft from the factory so you may want to play with those a bit. The stock exhaust is a bit pathetic but luckily that's fixable. The TST full light kit/tail tidy is worth it. I got it because once I'm done modding it, I can wring it out and not get a "go directly to jail" card like I would on a zx-6r and it's more comfortable to ride. All in all, I'm extremely happy with it. For the "average rider", they're gonna be upset at the lack of torque. For an enthusiast rider and someone who like twisties, finding the right gear has never been a concern tbh. Might help I've driven manual cars on twisty roads for most of my driving career though.

Beautiful video, Beautiful bike, thank you for saving the turtle. I do the same all the time, I hope you don’t mind asking, what type of helmet and jacket you have on nice gloves too. Stay safe turtle man! Thank you

The thing we need on this bikes is Kerker

SC Project or Arrow exhaust for slip-on pipe!

I bought the 2018 Z900rs Cafe in lime green in January of 2019. It was not my first bike but it was my firts new bike. I have 22,500 miles on it. Its still all stock except for radiator guard and rear fender delete. Ive ridden it in 10 different states taking trips with my wife on her z650. I love this bike. She rips and its not to bad in the corners. I have no plans to getvrid of it.

The frame is black on my KRT. Great video! Wait until you get a Yoshi or Graves on it, it'll change how you ride that bike. I find myself spending more time wringing it out to redline. Neighbors don't really care for it! LOL

I own a ZX4RR KRT, this review is a solid 4/10. Its not for learners, dont be fooled by the low CC you can get yourself in trouble on this. Brakes are strong, like 1 finger is all I need for road riding. A learner panic breaking will get themselves is a big mess real quick. This is a track orientated bike, a second review would be welcomed once you've done a track day or 2 after you've got your run in and tune done. Stay safe and enjoy the summer (I'm down under and its got cold over here!) Edit for grammar

2022 Euro 5 KTM 390 ADV: 9400 km's no issues what's so ever.

I’ve been looking at one to complement my Tenere after catching one on a demo truck last summer. 400/4s are my weakness. 😂

I put a G2 Ergonomics Throttle Tamer on my 2023 Z and it has eliminated the twitch.

great ride good review but your "dislikes" - a green shock, abs decal and ram air decal was not really relevant to whether or not someone would buy one lol

The thing Iv found bad about the Z900Rs. It’s too hard to pick the best color. They all look really slick 😮n person. The pictures and video don’t touch the metallic in the paint

Congrats on the new ride!

These seem like they pack a lot of punch for 390cc. Is the aftermarket pretty good for them?

I am absolutely in love with my Dark Green one. Perfect bike for me. 🙌

The throttle is fine on these. It’s a cable throttle that you just need to get used to. I love mine. Delete the cat and you’ll get power but lose torque which looks great on paper but does nothing.

Fasst sells the best flex handle bars for all types of bikes on my dr650 I use a 15 degree pitch on moto bars from fasst they save my wrist alot of guff no control loss and adjustable for how much flex you want and even set up soft no loss of control i still hit the jumps at 54 years old

Get you a set of fasst handlebars absolute best up grade with a set of warp 9 two inch risers for your handle bars. Those risers will replace the original dog bones holding your factory handle bars

Everybody has an opinion!!! Just not the opinion that we as normal people can afford!!! Let me guess you drive a 20 k bmw

Sex appeal , look like boobs, Is this a bike review or sex pleasure items?

I Love my 22 Z900RS 20th Anniversary Edition. True the throttle is a bit twitchy but I love everything else. What a fun bike, I bought it because it reminded me so much of my 70's version. Now if I could find a KZ650 like my 77 model to add.

I started on a Z650RS two years ago. The 900 will be my upgrade in another few years. Love them!

Mean lookin bike

How the GoPro 12 charging while on record? Thanks

The exhaust system and styling is what I love the most..

Great job sir!! I’d buy one right now if Bitcoin wasn’t about to pump!

I agree on everything except the seat. I'm a bigger guy though. After 45 min I start feeling it. I got a corbin ordered

Nice bike! Thanks for the review!

Good review! My favorite bike for sure!

Bout to pull the trigger on a '09 near me with 18k miles, lots of maintenance done on her and some tasteful upgrades including a seat concepts seat!!! Can't wait to get back on 2 wheels, it's been a few years.
