@mathieuconstantin3356 yes. Ivan's

Howdy, I indeed got an Ivan's tune. I also got a throttle tube with a different ratio that supposedly pulls slower at the beginning of the throttle twist. Even after both of these upgrades I feel like the snatchy throttle is only about 75% better. Not sure if anything will actually fix it 100% ... maybe carburetors haha. Let me know if you end up trying anything and if you think they help.

@@Cocobrain26 appreciate it. I will wait after the warranty period ended before messing with the ECU. I don’t get why there are TH-cam video says the throttle response is spot-on on these bikes, you can’t believe everything on YT.

@@jtwu8931 seems like lots of newer (fuel injected) bikes have some of that snatchy throttle. The Z900s seems up there among the worst. Almost dangerous at times. Even the engine decele is extreme with the factory tune. I wish Kawasaki didn't have emissions restrictions. I’m sure they would come up with buttery smooth throttles. Oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The Yoshi pipe came with a slip in muffler that I usually have in there. This is obviously without the muffler. The stock exhaust looks pretty decent on these bikes, I just prefer this because it reminds me of my old Honda 750 that I used to have.

I somewhat surprisingly haven't had a law enforcement encounter (knock on wood). I've always scanned for them and pulled in the clutch when I pass them. Once the engine is up up temp it's pretty quite at idle ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@@Cocobrain26 stay under the radar mate, good luck 🤙

Thank you! I'll see what I can do. I might have to borrow a GoPro to do a POV ride.

@@TopshelfJunior thanks! it's a cafe, but I changed the Handel bars, seat, and powder coated the wheels. I've don't lots of little stuff to it.

@@Cocobrain26 Man !!! I have the Cafe, but I always felt my bars still felt low...so I put some 1-inch risers on.. Still dont feel all the way right.. And then I always wondered if a regular RS seat could fit on the cafe ?! I guess it can ! Man, if you have any tips or can share ya process on how you switched em out let me know. I have a mechanic that will do mine for me.

Where is the best place for me to buy the bars and seat ?

@@TopshelfJunior I believe I got both of them from Webike Japan. The bars are Kawasaki bars from a Z1000. They bolt right on. The only bummer is that you also have to install a new front brake hose that goes from the master cylinder down to the proportioning block. The standard Z 900 RS and café have a different length brake hose, so you'll have to buy the standard length hose from Kawasaki. That might also be available from Webike but I got mine from a Kawasaki dealer locally. Technically you can buy the handlebars and seat from a dealer, but it's a lot cheaper to buy it from Webike in Japan

@@TopshelfJunior japan.webike.net/products/24909086.html These are the Z1000 handlebars. Not sure about the part number on the seat but it should be pretty easy to find on here

There is a hole where you can put the O2 sensor, but I got the ECU tuned so I just plugged that hole in the exhaust

@Cocobrain26 ok thank you for the reply. I'm a new owner and have a lot to learn.

Factory Kawasaki cowl

Thanks!

I usually just use water and a microfiber… I would be afraid that chemicals would eat into it

I have a tune on my bike that enabled me to completely remove the o2 bung (Un clipped it from the wiring harness) . If I remember correctly the exhaust system comes with two threaded holes, I ended up just plugging both of them with threaded plugs. I think the kit comes with at least one of them.

@Cocobrain26 this exhaust was a nightmare to install for me. What a pain in the ass!!

Really?! I thought is wasn't too bad. Maybe a little time consuming, but straight forward

I put the bar end mirrors on my old CB750. Looks much cleaner. Might have to do that for my Z900 as well!

Stock, just powder coated :)

They are Kawasaki Z1000 bars purchased from Webike Japan. They fit beautifully, however you'll also have to swap your front brake hose that goes from the master cylinder (standard non cafe brake hose fits perfectly). I'll see if I have part numbers for ya

Thank you for the info, I appreciate it.

Just sent the link For the z1000 handlebar. I'm pretty sure I just ended up getting the front brake hose from a Kawasaki dealer. I'm sure if you call your local kawi dealer they could look it up no problem

Thank you.

Kawasaki

The exhaust is all one piece minus the baffle… It is one screw to take the baffle out

I post a little video a few months back. I might have to make a good comparison video

I'll see what I can do. Might need to borrow a go pro or something

@@Cocobrain26 looking forward to that!

Hey, thanks!

21 now. Love your Zed

I appreciate it, thanks!

@@Cocobrain26 You should post more content around your bike and your life😃. Just a suggestion from a brother.

It's a possibility. I might have to buy a computer and learn how to edit videos etc... I have plenty of projects going on.

I have an extra one

Ear plugs are crucial with the Yoshi!

Café, but I've changed the handle bars to Z1000 for a more neutral riding position

I had them powder coated.

Your mom liked how it sounded when I took her for a ride

@@Cocobrain26 You paid money to make it look and sound worse. It’s actually good you made a video about it to warn others off this madness.

Ok champ

@@R2D2trashcan😂😂😂

Thank you!

@@Cocobrain26 Did you powdercoat the wheels?

Yes, it's called "goldtastic"

Reminds me of KZs and GPZs for sure, I love it

I bought it from Japan. I actually have an extra Yoshimura pipe in the shed if you'd like to buy it haha

@@Cocobrain26 That would be real nice!!!

I don't know if you can direct message me on here, but I can send pictures

Can you share the link for the pipe please 🙏

Purchased from Webike Japan. Not sure if they still sell it but I have a good used one i'd sell for a decent price

Hey, thanks!
