Glad you enjoyed and welcome to the channel! It’s hard to say, they are really different animals. If the z1000 had stock or quieter pipes I’d take it because of the smaller size, these ones are too much for me. The 14 is the faster motorcycle though and one of the comfiest I’ve ridden in a long time
@@Kwackajack Oh really!! Somehow thought was much recent since you did stick with the little bike for a while. Brisbane here CB750 Hornet if you wanna go for a spin sometimes.
Haven't had a chance to ride one of those yet! I've still got the 400, just have access to more bikes as of late and trying to plant the bum on as many as possible. It's a big bad world of motorcycles out there
Is this thing running stock or aftermarket headers? Sounds sick I’m looking to upgrade my z1000 to a full system I’ve only got SC project cans at the moment .
I got a 2018 same colour about 6 weeks ago. Rode an hour and a bit on the highway and not tiring at all. That was first ride home from dealer. Have had it out on back roads yesterday for a bit over an hour and fairly comfortable and one of those roads is rough. It’s firm and translates the big bumps through a bit hard. But but it handles very well similar to a super sports. It also is very quick. Not zx10 quick but not much slower. I have bad shoulders and this is perfect for me. It has less power then my 07 zx10 but it’s much more usable
As a Fellow Z owner and Brisbane local, great to see this review. Been following for years!
Love it! This a great review. I’ve been searching for an Aussie creator with good bike content
Cheers thanks for watching :)
Aussie’s do it best!
Oh what a lovely sound!
Love it,sounds awesome!
The burbles on the roll off made me think it had bronchitis 😅
Love these Kawasaki bikes. They build these engines tough. I’ve never heard Kwaka 1000 engine that didn’t sound mean.
Mean looking and mean sounding. Thankfully very nice to ride though!
Sexy motorbike 😮
That intro was awesome 😂
Glad you enjoyed!
Great review! Did you like this or the ZX-14R more? I'm looking for the faster accelerating one. Can't wait for the next one. Subscribed!

I recently purchased one and your review is spot on.
Someone got his Full License lately...
Lately as in around 2.5 years ago 😅

The 400 would be fun, especially as it spins up pretty high😊
Shame they discontinued it. It was the last good looking naked bike from Kawasaki imo
I might buy from Bowen Hills if I buy a kawasaki in the next 2 months but I'm also looking at triumphs. Nice review tho!
When I was last in they had a street triple R out front! Make sure to mention the channel when you’re there :)

Got a 2018 Z900 which is a great bike for the price, but I’d love some more power …
I’m wanting to do a full review on one! Looks like a terrific all rounder
Just curious about comfort for long rides?
Also how does it handle potholes?
