Why would you switch camera angles to the exhaust on a top speed run? We want to see the speedo climb. Zack short shifting to is saddening on a bike that revs to 16k.
@@kluthage421 Thats because the power was rolling over. You can hear it get less interested up top so there was probably more acceleration to be had by shifting early.
Blame it being restricted because thats the only reason.
Can you get it a flash and get it back to try again please? I feel like when people are buying this most are going to be doing a flash as a first thing and probably an exhaust aswell - though how much difference that makes is probably minimal.
It would be good to see what it can do in the spec most people will use it.
Would be interesting to see how fast the paralel twin ninja goes :)
Guys... Is the KOVE 450RR going to be sold in your country? it would be nice to hear your review about that interesting little four cilinder!
Is it overpriced? Yes. Is it in desperate need of an ECU flash? Yes. Is it the most fun motorcycle I’ve ridden in decades? YES.
This bike is anything but overpriced, try to build the same bike yourself and let me know how much you spent
Yup, and I'm buying one!!
@@Carlisho such a stupid thing to say, ignoring realistic and genuine criticism just because they can't also build the same thing is the downfall of any company
@@BooStairs im not ignoring criticism, the zx4rr is genuienly a good value for the price, if you want to put the same components the zx4 has on your ninja 400, the money not only quickly reaches the price of the zx, but it goes over it by a couple of grands… and that is still not taking into account the engine, which you are still down 2 cylinders, down a couple dozen HP and down half the revs.
@@Carlisho same price as a zx-6r and they couldn’t even include an aluminum frame? there’s a lot wrong with the price vs what’s actually on the bike
210km/h for us metric users.
Thanks 🙏
Oh shit that's what I was wondering how can my 400cc street bike be faster than a similar capacity RR 😂😂 it's mph ffs 🤣
Thanks my guy
My momma said Metric are of da devil 😈 - waterboy 😂
Ah okk zi
Could you guys please make more videos like this? It was very interesting and informative, and all under 2 minutes!
We should appreciate that this video is essentially just vroom vrooms and doesn't have a music track or a host who thinks the video is about them
Not bad, not bad at all. Shoutouts to Kawi, they out there single handedly carrying both the 600 and small inline4 guys
The audio on this recording is AMAZING. How was this achieved??? The gearbox clunk, the intake noise, wow...
Use a separate audio recorder with the mic under the seat to eliminate wind noise and record all the music.
How do you notice the intake noise?
I got to ride one of these at a Kawasaki demo event. Such a fun little bike. You can actually rev it up and play around in a city without getting in trouble.
City is the last place for this bike…
This is a street legal motogp bike, not a city bike 😂 you can rev it up in first and second gear yes. But this is not for city riding
@@James27Simko Bro, thats a 70hp beginners bike :D
@@KapitanPisoar1 I know? When did I say otherwise? I was saying to this other guy that the bike is not designed to be a city bike 😂😂😂😂
@@James27Simko Well you called it "street legal motogp bike"....
This is the bike I just recently bought for my first bike and I love it so much
Came looking for Daily Rider, found this. Winning!
Same 😅
You came?
@@toddstephenson7154🌚
That zero to 60 time is the star here!
My 2013 ninja300 used to do 0-60 in 4.8 seconds, id have expected this to be faster than 0-60 in about 4.2, maybe its rider error but I was hoping for more
The Parallel twin offers more low end, that's why it has a good 0-60.
The ninja 400 is an awesome bike as well. This is just nitch ( don't get me wrong, I ordered one hehe )
@@James27Simko watch this video>>> We ride the $26,000 Graves Motorsports Kawasaki ZX-4RR! - Cycle News
5 seconds is horrible.
It sucked
The only street bike that interests me. I hope it succeeds and brings in more small inline 4's. Smaller, lighter, slower, higher revs and cool tech. I don't want to be a huge **** on the street, I just want to feel cool and have fun
Don’t forget the CBR650R!
its called zx25r. 18k rpm
@@PokeyCottons what is better cbr or ninja?
@@rjsthgsaargagra are you asking specifically about the Ninja ZX4RR vs CBR650R?
Basically, the CBR650R is better for the street and the ZX4RR is better for the track.
@@hilmiyahya3027 Video of track dressedzx400rr>>> We ride the $26,000 Graves Motorsports Kawasaki ZX-4RR! - Cycle News
Unfortunately every ZX4r video now has to be in the context of pre ECU flash or post ECU flash. Those restrictions are crazy...
They need to be careful since they are part of an organization that sells motorcycle parts. EPA published a guide for fines to be given to any company that impairs or removes emission control devices on certified vehicles or sells equipment to do so. In 2016, Harley Davidson got fined $12 million, so it is no idle threat. In 2020, EPA dropped the individual fine to $1,000 (from $4,819), and some think that this means they are likely to start going after more individuals.
@@jfess1911they went after dynojet too the power commander 6 is a waste of money now
@TM-ot3vl I read one of the enforcement documents and it stated something along the lines that there is no problem if the emissions still meet the standard. This is why some aftermarket exhaust systems that include catalytic converters are approved, even though they are louder.
It is possible that a new map that eliminates the flat spot but still meets air emissions standards would be acceptable, even if it is louder.
I would not like to be the test case, though.
@@jfess1911 the new PC6 only allows 15+/- adjustment vs 250+/- like it did before. The only way to make an exhaust louder like ford did was to make a valved exhaust system where it by passes the muffler. Other than that you’re SOL. Tuning motorcycles used to be easy now i have to send my ecu in to some place in the states to do it which is annoying. If they care about emissions so much why not just switch to hydrogen gas which has a 80% reduction in emissions while keeping gasoline vehicles…
@TM-ot3vl I am afraid that I am a little dense. Would you please explain the 15+/- vs 250? I have never played with an ecu.
That straight cut gear is everything.
A wee bit faster than my Royal Enfield Himalayan. 😛- Shane
💯
Lol. More than double. 😂
😂😆😂
I somehow managed to think that it's a H2. I was really worried about the missing 100 mph at the end.
I oddly enjoyed that even though I have no interest in owning one.
Do more of these videos!!
Man, I love Kawasaki for making this bike.
I love the noise. Kawasaki is busy inventing while the rest are tryna copy each other
Suzuki laughs
Also Kawasaki: “Here’s another bike with a 650 parallel twin”
Yamaha is laughing at this and pointing to the Lexus LFA,CP4 R1 and R6
@@azurecoast45 i dont get that, manufacturers hate to spend money and make no sales yet stick that horrendous 650 in 3 bikes? do they hate themselves?
I absolutely love how this bike sounds. I can't wait to get one and leave it completely stock ;)
In space no one can hear you scream, but you're in Chico.
That's plenty quick, honestly. And it sounds amazing.
the gauge is mph right?
Now This is Something to Watch. Love this kind of episode. Thanks Bro.
Can’t wait to see what it can do after the ecu flash
0 to voided warranty in a flash!
@@aluisious They don't void your warranty lmfao
I saw a before and after video following a remap, the bike accelerated much quicker but I think the top speed remained the same at 132mph.
He already did the ecu flash tho
@@16driver16 no this is a stock bike review, as always.
Same as all the four Japanese 400cc supersports 35 years ago.
nah the US version is heavily restricted if you try the asean one it as fast as 600cc from 30 years ago
YES! Good on you all for showing the actual GPS-measured speed and not the dashboard indicated speed. Not bad in its stock USA-configuration but it really does need the ECU flash and exhaust upgrade for its real potential.
Kawasaki is going to sell out of these things! Amazing machine! Ty RevZilla Team!
Damn that sounds lil bit like straight cut gears, beautiful
its because every motorcycle has straight cut gears 😂
About the same engine performance as the twins but more complicated and a different noise
Interesting development as the faster supersports fall out of favor in place of big twins and triples to bring out a baby 4 that plays in the same category more or less
Do I want to replace my FZ07 track bike with one of these? Hell yeah I do, proper sport bike chassis/suspension is so good
Am I gonna? No, because the FZ is cheap as dirt to run so I get more track days for less maintenance/consumables
I will get really excited if I see one at the track though
This unfortunately is the US version which is comes with 52hp so it’s a lot slower than the Asian version that comes with 80hp due to US Emissions 😭 the Asian version tops at 243-250kph (150-155mph) so not so bad at all
Same top speed as the FZR400 from 35 years ago. Progress?
4 cylinder sound and excellent speed for a 400cc WOW!
Would be curious to see y'all run this test again with an ECU flash, there's an extra 20hp that can be unlocked
@@wanderer397 it comes stock with an extra 20hp outside of the US
Watch this video>>We ride the $26,000 Graves Motorsports Kawasaki ZX-4RR! - Cycle News
It's not overpriced if you want this bike. It costs what it costs. Not all riders shop motorbikes with price as the primary concern. If you think it costs too much it isn't the bike for you. Just be glad a little jewel like this exists for the people that want one. Cheers
Youre right its not about price, until you get a way better bike for the same price 😂
Maybe someone has a different opinion of what makes a bike way better (was my point).
La CBR 250 es otra joya que recuerda a los años 90,No corren como una 600 pero por peso y sonido son pura adrenalina
That's my town. Why Chico? Jason Black from the old Sport Rider magazine lives there as well.
That's pretty awesome and I assume it's in stock format. Can't wait to see what tune and upgrades will do to one
People don't upgrade 400s for top speed lol.
@@superduperkid3143 people who race them do
Video gave me massive top gun flashback. Kawasaki on a runway
Man, that induction noise!
"Can you even take that thing on the highway?" ha!
From this old, ex-roadracer, it's nice to see, and hear, a small displacement, screaming I-4 again. I started on an EX500. Hurrah Kawasaki!!
Doesn't sound quite as good as my old ZXR250, bit it still doesn't sound bad!
Thank regulations
I might be alone here but I miss analog tachometers, just love seeing the needle climb.
Oh please do more of these!!! Love it!
my neighbors gonna hate this
We saw about 134 indicated on ours before and after the flash. Rider weight making a difference here I believe, I'm about 160lbs
Rider weight affects acceleration pretty strongly, but has little affect on top speed assuming the track is long enough. Now being fat with large frontal area is a different story…
Can't wait to get one!!❤
Great video. As others have commented, can we be clear if this bike has a stock ECU versus flashed?
I was watching the speedo and thinking: "That's it?" Until I realized we're talking about a 400cc engine.......
wow that sound🎵🎼 208 kph right? thanks...
Stock?
The thrill of an inline 4 without the insane unusable power of 600cc+ inline 4s(on the street).
Pretty impressive for 53hp
oh boy, do NOT look up the specs for a 30 year old NC30.
It's 80 hp...
@@clementroyc
The version released in the US is restricted. And I'm pretty sure that bike is completely stock.
@@Jaslath oof! That's very restricted unfortunately. Wouldn't think I'd see us spec vehicles so down on power since the 80s. But fortunately though, I don't think many people are letting this one of a kind, nowadays at least, stay so below it's actual potential
@@johnybenx3165
I agree. I doubt many of them will stay stock for long. Let be honest here, outside of the track what use does someone really have for this thing? It's only $1600 less than a ZX-6R.
I can do 128 on my regular ninja 400. Stock!!! So.... I don't get it?
This can make a very capable track bike.
Unlock the extra 20 horsepower at the top end and I bet you'd get another 10 miles an hour out of it.
Didn't he already do that? Also there's only about 1k rpm left on the table idk if he could get more than 10mph extra out of it with any amount of hp
@@16driver16the power curve goes flat after 11,500 I have seen videos where they were going down a free way and got close to 150 mph but it has to have opened up ecu
Never before has such a low speed sounded so wonderful.
When was 130 slow? That speed will kill you in a caged car.
Means you werent born in the late 80s or early 90s. They were so many 4 cylinders 400cc from all the major Japanese manufacturers....we were basically spoilt for choice. I myself rode the cbr and rvf and my preferred choice was the cbr with Yoshi pipe.
Makes me wonder what my 5'7" 148lb frame could do with that thing.🙂
Thanks for making this video guys. More top speed vids if possible.
You'd basically get the same top speed, you'd just reach it a little faster. F=MA. Acceleration is related to torque and mass. Top speed is related to horsepower and aerodynamics.
@@valensinclair6750I kinda get the physics equation, but how would you explain this on a grom when weight is such a determining factor on top speed
Everything counts in top speed and believe it or not rider skill. The surface, wind speed and direction, density of altitude, gearing, shift points, throttle body closure, bike and rider aerodynamics, etc etc.
I think this was the best top speed for this no matter the distance and rider weight. Fix the throttle body closing in sixth gear then it could pull some more gearing then the riders weight might make some difference given the short running distance.
We once did an experiment at the Bonneville Salt Flats with three different size riders on two different bikes running the same distance (3 miles) with no changes to the motorcycles.
Rider 1 weight 155 pounds, Rider 2 weight 180 pounds and Rider 3 320 pounds. Rider 1 was faster than Rider 2 and 2 was faster than Rider 3. On bike 1 rider 1 was 20 mph faster than rider 3, and on bike 2 rider 1 was 25 mph faster than rider 3.
The aerodynamics of a 155 pound rider compared to a 320 pound rider was huge as you might expect. However, in the run the bike was clearly maxed out.
@@GotPoopWeScoopI can only think of tyre deformation under load as the tyre drag is a major drag for vehicles, such as aerodynamic drag above 160km/h
@@valensinclair6750agree to disagree. Yes the rider weighing less would reach the top speed quicker due to less weight but a rider weighing almost 50 lbs less would absolutely carry more mph.
Why gear 6 only 13.500 rpm???
I read the title as ZX-14R initially. Seemed a little slow to 60 but thought maybe it was the rider...and then became even more confused when the the speed stopped at 126.
No ninja 400 ever sounded that good and even with stock pipe. Good launch there man not easy on 400 fours. Best video of the day for me. direct to the point do it again with a pipe on it,
@@Tihihihi007 what and who has vfr 400 talking zx400rr four ?????? What the fugg ate you talking about?
Now do it on an unrestricted version. Literally every one sold in the US will end up uncorked
Should have ran it back down the other direction just to check!😉
why short-shifted on 3rd-4th?
I was so close!! I guessed exactly 132 MPH just 1MPH off!
Whoa! That's cool!
what is the true top speed of this ZX-4RR? Please thanks
200 kmh effettivi in Europa ( Italy) con 80 CV in America è limitata con CV in meno 😢
Head over to Moore Mafia channel and take a look at how neutered Kawasaki has this ZX from factory. Near redline, the throttle plate closes (via ECU) to a mere 56% throttle, and there ain't nothing the rider can do about it!!!
Slip-on exhaust, ECU flash, and Moore's tuning, yielded 71 horsepower peak up from stock 57 hp. Yes. You read that right.
When doing speed tests on motorcycles, use gps for accuracy. As everyone is well aware, the speedometers on motorcycles are quite inaccurate.
Riding the paint. Thats ballsy
This motorcycle is perfect for the streets.
I put 120mph on my Ninja 300 with Two Brothers Carbon Exhaust, K&N high performance filter, Michelin Street Pilot tires and with great ride attitude 🙂 so ZX4 RR only about 10mph more top speed?
He prolly didnt tune it and ECU flash it, if he did that plus changing the exhaust with a full system it could prolly hit around 165mph or more
Some guys did the Asian market version with a full system exhaust top speed test, got around 146 - 148mph.
What would it be if the ECU was flashed
131mph from 400cc ain't bad. Now we just need Yamaha to make a mini R1 engine so we can have all the noise.
Yo crossplane 400cc yamaha would be nuts, some competition form the other manufacturers
ZX4RR or Honda CBR650R? Help me to decide
My 1985 GSX-R 400 did exactly the same speed at the time
I’ll wait until this hits facebook marketplace
Not bad for a 400cc, i do 320km/h with 2012 r1 but not the same price..
That bike identifies as BMW M3 GTR with that GADDAMN whine
To everyone is talking about the ECU flash… Just get the 600! It costs and weights about the same with almost twice the power…
Good lord that thing sounds epic!
But urm you’re doing it wrong. One doesn’t post a top speed video on TH-cam honestly! You have to change the gearing so the speedo over reads, then ride it down hill with a tailwind and claim you hit that effortlessly every time 😂
Love when people say over priced. You could get the zx6r but no one thinks about insurance. Some states are 3k a year while the 4rr is 1k a year. To some people, that 3k a year not worth if you can’t ride it every month out of the year. I’ll take a 4rr over a 6r just on that alone. People need to check their heads if they’re paying that insurance. If you got the money, go ahead, blow it.
What's the difference between the R and the RR version of the zx4?
01:01 top speed is 131 mph = 210 kmh. and 0-60 mph (0-100 kmh) in 10 seconds.
why didnt u red line each gear?
It's probably because a new bike, manufacturer does not recommend to hit the red line until you pass a first 600 miles on odometer... Ride Safe ✌️
The long runway stripes give the illusion that he's going very slow.
I love how the engine and drive train are making at least as much noise as the exhaust.
It *IS* going slow.
Is that stock?
i am... very surprised right now, that this 400cc MIXER is actually that fast.
Is this the inline 2 or 4?
It's inline 4 cylinder... ✌️
When this Bike Came Out in the Beginning i Saw a bunch of Ppl Claiming this bike to Go 155mph TopSpeed🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Claims are like opinions and assholes, every one has one. If they ain't got proof, the claims are worthless.
Why do a good shift on 4th - 6th gear if you can use power shift
People are whining about paying $300+ for an ECU flash?
How about paying $1000 for an ECU that can be tuned for a bike has their ECU's locked by the factory, like the 500 EXC.
I paid Ivan to flash my Z900RS ECU and it was worth every penny.
Most of you are already going to toss a slip-on on the bike, what's another $300?
For below on top speed, this is physics not conjecture on a bike 3 biggest factors of top speed is HP gearing and aero, weight has little if any affect on top speed just how long to reach it. Now acceleration big 3 is hp weigh and gearing light and powerful and slick does best.
Awesome more of these please!!!!!
Nice, you guys should do this for every super sport.
130 on the speedo with just 51hp at the rear wheel! Unbeliveable!!!!!!!!
That's 210 km/h for the rest of the world. Pretty im impressive for a 400. :)
Thanks. Was searching for this 🫶🏼
130 mph on a 400 ? Fast enough for me yall 😂!! I don't intend to be going anywhere for any reason at anytime that would even remotely require me to need to go at that rate of speed so this is perfect for my slow ass !!!😂😂😂
Damn, thought you was about to takeoff there
I was waiting for take off at the end 😂
