Boothy I don’t mean to be one of those internet bell ends that just slates people online for no reason. I’m sure you’re a lovely bloke. Just for me I don’t feel like it works, we all know what they say about opinions though don’t we!
When it comes to working on the bike, Its engineered to perfectly, soo easy to remove the exhaust and do air filter/block off plates. What a dream to work on!!!
You boys always knock it out the park with your reviews. I know you have to play nice so the manufacturer doesn't hate you but your reviews are always excellent!
An absolutely stunning looking bike, on par with the modern R1 and Fireblade triple R imo. That front end looks so nice and proportionate even with those aggressive lines. Love it!
I'm from India guys and this bike is pretty popular in its category specially in my country but believe me I never see this kind of details review you guys doing pretty good job ..keep it up Guys
Agree.. bring the classic late 80s/90s colours back.. These paint/sticker jobs are far to busy. Not really a fan of black wheels either.. I must be getting old lol
woo_rsv71 I'm with you and RSChris05, Mate... White, blue and green and let's have the hoover tubes back through the tank! Yeah, well, perhaps we are boring old bar stewards...
Thanks, awesome vid! I don't do tracks and never going to be able to afford a superbike but that new dash was my main reason to get the Z650 instead of MT07 (and the better looks). Beautiful paintjob on this ZX10R and Kawi are good making affordable bikes with affordable servicing. Somehow I value that more than European fanciness.
@@canismajoris6733 Six out the top 10 in BSB were riding ZX10R's in 2014, Shane Byrne won multiple championships, Ian Hutchinson won the 2015 Superstock Isle on mann on a Gen4.
As usual a great video. Boothy is too modest about his riding ability. Any IOM TT rider win or lose is a top rider imo. If only I wasn't too old to bend into shape to ride this.
No, I liked it too. Yes, it did look outdated, and I do actually prefer the new dash, but I sure admired the sheer simplicity of the old dash. No fancy screen. Just the essentials. Name it raw if you will haha
It's hard to believe that anything painted Kawasaki green would look a bit plain, but somehow the RR does. Then again, this lets the Marchesinis stand out even more- no bad thing!
Thanks for the great review. Boothy is very entertaining and informative. I love the thought of a superbike, but the reality is just too uncomfortable and painful. Shame about the electronics on the Kwak.
Compared to all you Jurno's i can't ride for toffee, but why no mention of peg down antics like Chris from BIKEWORLD....come on lads, we all know 44Teeth do it harder and faster than the next guy
Love watching your videos and I really appreciate your honest critique did you boys try it without the ABS fuse and if so did that solve all the problems?
I owned R1M and before that a '17 ZX-10R. I thought my old ZX-10R was decently confortable on the road. TEst drove the '21 model, and I thought it was the most uncomfortable sport bike I've ever rode. First thign I"d do, lower the foot pegs/controls. Other than that, Bike looks great! LED lights & TFT gauges are a needed upgrade! As for me, I'd be a '19 or '20 model if I wanted a ZX-10R, or Pick up a Jixer 1000 if I had one bike. Love the looks, but cannot live with it as a commuter bike (and I've been commuting with sport bikes for over 25 years). I'll probably go for the ZX-6R instead.
Nice vid lads. I'm not sold on the graphics and they can keep intrusive ABS but you've got to give it to them - they've done EU5 without screwing the bike, it sounds good and it looks a laugh. Even the price is bearable.
Don't like the white belly pan. I guess it's to look like a zxr750 Kawasaki France from early 90s But too many colours for me on a bike Another great video, better than Saturday night TV
Boothy is a fantastic addition to a already amazing channel.
💯 he is great.
I disagree. I personally can’t stand him and think he’s ruined a good thing!
I def prefer the originals, but I do like what he brings to the table
@@robs715 I think I'm going to cry...

Boothy comes into his own on this one. Good to see 44Teeth back to doing what the channel does best.
comes into his own what??
@@Unfunny_Username_389...hand, usually.
@@boothy6057 better than sock, i suppose
Great to see Boothy give the Kawasaki a good flogging. And no broken bones, fantastic! 😊👌
For such an experienced rider, Boothy is such a down to earth bloke. Great, honest review. 10 points for hufflepuff.
Oi, who you calling hufflepuff?!
At first I didn't like how it looked, but its growing on me ngl.
I didn’t like it at first, but in the flesh it’s a real beauty (Al)
Same here!, It’s just very aggressive Robotic Looking like the Yamaha MT-10 imo
Same here! It's growing on me too. Love the black one better personally.
Same again. At first i thought it was ugly but after watching few videos on it i actually really like it
For me it was always the most beautiful Kawasaki ZX to date
Good to have Boothy on the channel! RST have definitely looked after you lads haven’t they, cracking set of leathers
Shx
Boothy is a fantastic addition to the 44Teeth team. He really takes y'all to the next level with regard to ride reviews from an expert. Love it!
Brings up the faffery to the next level.

They need to make another winter test edition with the black fairings.
Fairly sure that subtitling a perfectly understandable northerner is discrimination in the workplace 🤣- love from Lancashire.
Kawasaki’s are always extremely potent, something special about a Kawasaki
Very entertaining proper review. I like this bike a lot more than I thought would & it looks surprisingly good too.
You boys always knock it out the park with your reviews. I know you have to play nice so the manufacturer doesn't hate you but your reviews are always excellent!

I’ll have whatever you’re smoking... 😆
@@ewanoffshore be my guest, haha!
It's hideous. I'm glad someone likes how it looks lol
It looks futuristic just like the ninja h2. Ppl dislike it when it came out. But in time ppl will appreciate it. It aged like a fine wine
Yeah nah it’s not the best looking bike.
That engine and exhaust noise is flipping glorious 😎😎
So happy they brought the solid green back! Wish they would do the same for the 636
Great review Boothy, great to see 44teeth back to its best after lockdown!
Finally the video I’ve been waiting for !!
I don't like the look of it so much, but the sound of it going round the track still made the hairs on my arms stand up, just like my 2011 ZX10.
I'm from India guys and this bike is pretty popular in its category specially in my country but believe me I never see this kind of details review you guys doing pretty good job ..keep it up Guys
All our indian owners do is take it out every day in the market to rev it behind girls. Fucking noobs. 🤣
Goodness, that was an epic ride on the track. Great to hear some honest opinions on this bike as well.
We need the old school look of white with blue and green rips. Classic Kawasaki.
Agree.. bring the classic late 80s/90s colours back.. These paint/sticker jobs are far to busy. Not really a fan of black wheels either.. I must be getting old lol

Boothy's expertise really shines finally, more than your every day gold sequined back alley mattress reporter, as it turns out.
Looking forward to that mega test!
I like the cosmetic and all of the numerous, mechanical updates they have made over the gen 4 and 5. I really want one but my gen 4 works just fine.
One can never have too many bikes.
Not sure why these reviewers undermine Aero. Downforce starts producing as little as 30mph.
Zx10r for life! Great video gentlemen!!!!
Love my Gen4 10. Severely underrated bike - to me it's the Suzuki K5 of modern bikes, very light and very tunable.
Apart from the k5 was fast.

Cracking looking bike ! Waited for your video. Cheers !
As usual a great video. Boothy is too modest about his riding ability. Any IOM TT rider win or lose is a top rider imo. If only I wasn't too old to bend into shape to ride this.
Boothy what a lad. i do wish kawasaki would go back to the old shade of green from the early ninjas though
Once I got to 5.30s I was of one opinion, this guy knows his stuff. Mic dropped!
Isn't it good getting back to bikes after winter and lock down...just watched your 125 racing as well - epic! - top stuff lads 😁👍
Loved my 2019 ZX-10R, but the gearing wasn’t fun for the road.. starting to enjoy bikes with more midrange. But this looks great 👍🏻
42T rear and a flash, wakes it right up (2016-2020 10R's).
Get a ZX14r. You'll never ride anything else
That camera view mounted on the front of the fairing looking back is nice!
Am I the only one who is constantly watching scared Boothy is gonna stack it?
No, you're not. I'm constantly scared I'm going to stack it too.
@@boothy6057 Balls too big for your leathers mate
I still love the rainbow rev meter.
Love a bit of bedford, really easy and wide so a good track to test on and also have a good laugh with your mates.
Designers get in the sea. Big up boothy.
I think they've missed a trick here with the RR. Change the proportion to look more like the zx7r and give it a purple tail 👌
I think it's the best-looking superbike right now! Clean and old-school looking!
Awsome! I heard in another review the abs at the rear can be switched off by removing a fuse.
an honest opinion from a kawasaki fan?
YES PLEASE
I really like the look of the bike and would not mind having one in my garage.. I hope there will be a road test in the future.. Thanks Boothy and Al
Hard to see those braking markers when you wheelie the entire straight :D
I’m a simple man, I see a green machine, I leave that like button licked clean
nice to hear the bike loud in the footage, inline four is my favorite
Couldn’t agree more 👊🏻 inline 4 just sounds mean
But what is more impressive is Boothy's face fug & RST leathers ... great insight as usual, time 4 me to buy some 44t stickers OR R they's free?
Boothy is such a great addition to the team !, Such a humble guy too 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Haha soggy biscuit! Haven’t heard that in a few decades!
you guys gonna get a ride on the new V4 tuono factory at some point too?
Am I the only one who loved that blazing orange LED Tachometer up top on the old 10R!? I think that thing looked sick af!!
Yes, yes you are. The old tach. looked cheap and outdated. Like something that belongs on one of those cheap Korean bikes.
No, I liked it too. Yes, it did look outdated, and I do actually prefer the new dash, but I sure admired the sheer simplicity of the old dash. No fancy screen. Just the essentials. Name it raw if you will haha
@@RSChris666 Oh I'm only talking about the Tacho here. the screen itself was pretty useless I agree.
This bike is 95% more capable than me.. Doesn’t stop me wanting one though.. Kawasaki are the masters of aggressive, edgy sport bikes!
It's hard to believe that anything painted Kawasaki green would look a bit plain, but somehow the RR does. Then again, this lets the Marchesinis stand out even more- no bad thing!
Thanks for the great video folks !
Hope to test the new 10r on some local tracks too
Thanks for the great review. Boothy is very entertaining and informative.
I love the thought of a superbike, but the reality is just too uncomfortable and painful.
Shame about the electronics on the Kwak.
To be honest this tank camera position is the best.
Great Video! Thinking of upgrading from ZX6R to this.
Can't say he wasn't pushing, even went off, nice
I know they keep coming last in reviews. But I’d love to have one. Ninja init
Thoroughly enjoyed that! Need to get Boothy as a regular addition.
500 grams saving in the reciprocating assembly is insane savings! 😲
I do like the new headlight design.
Owned and Ridden all of them, the ZX-10-RR is Magical
Quite like the colour scheme, with the black, red and white decals.
Great video. Boothy is awesome. Great Review, comments, and classic banter.
Also- I'll take mine in Black, please!
Great review Boothy. Beard game is strong 💪
My question is would you buy the zx or the BMV RR not the Msport
Wet track, slick tyres, and 200hp ... 😂 great review! From Lancashire!
Looks awesome 👍, not enough changes to upgrade from my 2019 tho
Very Excited for the 125 series 🤩
Great bike.great review.🙏🏴🇬🇧
Test riding the 23rr this week
what is that small light for on the front end? horrendous looking from the front
I think it's blinking when above a (configurable) rpm....so totally useless i.m.o. but I might be completely wrong....so please correct me.
Compared to all you Jurno's i can't ride for toffee, but why no mention of peg down antics like Chris from BIKEWORLD....come on lads, we all know 44Teeth do it harder and faster than the next guy
Nice first review video, you two together make me laugh
Looks great, always loved the Zx10r, I had a 2012 KBF model, wish I kept it !!
Love watching your videos and I really appreciate your honest critique did you boys try it without the ABS fuse and if so did that solve all the problems?
I'd love to know that too..😊
looked like the steering damper could have been a bit stronger, I could see the front wheel wobbling like hell on hard acceleration...
Love the footage and insight 🥳🥳❤️

Looks good, the engine sounds so good too.
Nah, not for me sadly. still looks far behind other competitors. Thanks for the insight Boothy 😎
First thing on the to do list if you bought one is rip that exhaust straight off and get a arata or akrapovic on it
i love previous zx10r version
That matte black Arai lid is pretty horn!
I quite liked the camera angle actually
Excellent show
I'm sure the bike is amazing, but the headlights is going to take some time to get used to. but great vid
Nice vid lads. I'm not sold on the graphics and they can keep intrusive ABS but you've got to give it to them - they've done EU5 without screwing the bike, it sounds good and it looks a laugh. Even the price is bearable.
The new dash is wicked. Genuinely looks like something you might find in a fighter jet. Old one was minging to be honest
It's a lovely looking superbike!
My 2017 RR, with F/R Sprocket ch, ecu, and full akra pipe RIPS
Pink swoosh trainers WTF - girl 👧
Another great video !
They’re comparing an ‘11 to a ‘21... meanwhile I’m still riding and tracking my ‘01zx9. Haha.
No helmets with a camera allowed? Maybe check out Forcite Helmets. Integrated camera, and currently used in racing in Australia.
Differently but nicely done by Boothy...thank You and pls more vids!!!
Don't like the white belly pan.
I guess it's to look like a zxr750 Kawasaki France from early 90s
But too many colours for me on a bike
Another great video, better than Saturday night TV
