I really like the way this bike looks. It’s quite compact. It looks athletic. I enjoy your reviews.

@ScoutsOut Год назад

Yes it's really made quite well especially for the price point, thank you!

@ckMTB 2 года назад

Great bike check buddy, nice video with beautiful shots. Thanks for sharing and take care🤙

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Thanks ck, was a fun one to ride

@chrisgoodman4194 Год назад

Love the review man!!! Im 40 and have riden dirt bikes and atvs all my life in the desert and glamis...had a yfz 600 for my 1st bike. For a second...still debating the duke 390 or this..dont wanna grow out too fast

@ScoutsOut Год назад

Nice man, I appreciate that.. it’s a fun bike let me know what you think if you get it 🍻

@YooperDanKulka Год назад

Just got a Kawasaki z 400 2022. Love it. Next year is the Kawasaki z650 for sure!

@ScoutsOut Год назад

Nice dude! Congrats on the new bike

@tonyh4233 Год назад

Handlebars are great mate, when your counter steering on your corners, bars are great

@TrailTales 2 года назад

Nice vid as always mate... I was just thinking that I'd not seen your vid pop up today yet when it popped up... Hahaha... As these things roll sometimes... Nice little bat that! :D

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Haha thanks man, it was a fun bike

@annac1624 2 года назад

I have a Z650 and it’s a perfect around town and small trips bike. I think those handle bars might be turned a little inwards, or mine are tilted back because they don’t sit at that angel and are pretty comfortable. Thanks for the fair review of this kawi

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Yea man it was a really fun all around bike, I was thinking the same thing about the bars, like someone had messed with them or something, they were just so bad I couldn’t get past it. Some pro taper bars or an adjustment would make it great though, that was my only real complaint the rest of the bike was awesome 🍻

@eddieglover7774 2 года назад

Nice and honest review 👍🏽

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Thank you, I appreciate that!🍻

@Slip0824 Год назад

I just bought this bike about a month ago. I grew up riding dirt bikes but this is my first big boy bike lol. It needs a windshield for sure. Going 110 down the freeway on this thing, the wind beats the shit outta you. I'm gonna put a two brothers exhaust system on it, buy some saddle bags, and definitely a better seat. Once all that's done I'll be more than happy with my purchase! Thanks for the review!

@ScoutsOut Год назад

Nice dude congrats on the new bike, I’m glad your enjoying it. Solid plans for upgrades too 🍻

@Kareem_Alcindor 2 года назад

Pretty strange that the Z400 handlebars are wider than the Z650s. Coming from someone that owned a Z400, I sat on a Z650 and could feel the difference but I don't remember it being that drastic and uncomfortable. Great video sharing your thoughts during a Demo Day!

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Right!! Super strange to me how bad the bars on the 650 were and how much I enjoyed the 400 🤷🏻‍♂️ thanks for watching bro cheers!!

@xX3essoXx Год назад

im a very new rider and I am 6'4, 27 years old and i was a little bit cramped on the Z650 when i test drove it. The Mt07 was little bit better but still kinda cramped so i went and got a Yamaha tenere 700 which fits me perfectly ( i had to order a taller seat too) being tall and a beginner rider lets you have only few choices 😂 im getting me a Zx10R after i gain some experience, its my dream bike, so is the H2

@ScoutsOut Год назад

The tenere is cool, that was a good choice for tall beginner. I rode one last month and enjoyed it. It’s good you got that to learn on and not the h2 + you could put bags and street tires on it and make a good commuter when you get the zx10 or h2.

@johnd9031 2 года назад

Good review. I like the Kawasaki bikes with this 650:engine.

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Yea man they are super nice, I’m really leaning towards the verses 650 now for my work commuter that engine is fun

@ElbowDragger96 2 года назад

I have this bike. The handlebars aren’t my fave. Would prefer a wider feel. It’s fun and peppy for sure. Looking towards the 900 here by the end of this year. Kawasaki has a demo ride coming this week, so looking forward to that.

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Yea it was a really fun bike to ride, with some pro taper bars it would I be 👌🏼, the 900 looked cool I tried to ride it that day but everyone went for it first and it didn’t work out but it looked like a cool bike

@michaeliovani4487 2 года назад

I just bought a z650 yesterday, getting delivered in a few days. I started out on a Benelli TNT 135 as my first bike ever just to test the waters but I quickly outgrew it.

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Nice dude I’m excited for you, that’s a really fun bike and will be way more enjoyable than the 135, congrats

@gojolumo 2 года назад

Oh shit that's Santa maria. I was like that those buildings look very familiar and the I saw motel 6 lol. Good stuff

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Haha, it sure is

@tootjr 2 года назад

Good video , I deff like sound of cp 2 engine better , however the kawa 650 is a nice bike , like you , not crazy about way the handlebars look.👍

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Thanks yea I agree cp2 is way better sounding. I think with some pro taper bars and do something with the mirrors and this thing would be fun

@xelnjare3945 2 года назад

< has an aftermarket exhaust, and yes, it sounds pretty darn good. I'm tweaking my db killer setup (just personal preference, I want to drop it down about 5 dB or so) - completely changes the bike. Not using mine as a commuter, just hitting the twisties and enjoying the ride. Thank you for a review not outright bashing the bike - so many are locked into MT-07/SV-650 being THE only choices for middleweights and hate on the Z.

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Nice dude I bet it sounds good, I feel the same way I went into the review thinking I wouldn’t like the bike because of reviews I’ve watched in the past. I was blown away how much I enjoyed the bike 🍻

@Delerium04 2 года назад

Same same but different, but still same! I like all nakeds

@thodoris3790 Год назад

awesome reviews man!i ride over 25 years.mostly on/off bikes.i had only one street bike ,the fzs600 fazer 2002.very good sport touring bike.but that was 11 years ago.now i want to buy a new bike and this time a street bike.i like these z series.and i like it more than mt07,even the new hornet.but,i think the 900 would be to much,from performance,cost ,maintainse.i like this bike.i didnt have the chance to ride it,not even see it from close.i d like to ask:would be comfortable ,i m 5.9.i know there is the higher seat choise.and second,i want it for country side roads and twisties,for fun rides and every day use.will the power be enought for a little fun?

@ScoutsOut Год назад

Thanks man, I'd say yes to both. The bike has a really good amount of power and a low seat height so you would be good for both feet on the ground at 5.9

@gojolumo 2 года назад

Question since yamaha and kawasaki are there. Have you ridden the mt-07 and if yes which one to you prefer

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Yea I have rode the mt07. The Yamaha has just a little more power and sounds better but the kawi looks way better imo. I would probly grab the MT

@1000750 2 года назад

Yeah the bars but I was trippin on the mirrors. You see a friend and quicky raise your hand to wave and smack, it looks like they are right there. The whole cockpit could use an upgrade. 😎🤙

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Yea it was a fun bike but agreed the cockpit sucked. With some pro tapers and a mirror change it would be a fun little naked to rock

@joelvischannel1690 2 года назад

Hello bro. Tnx for nice review for z650.. ur new foler frm phils..

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Right on, thanks I’m glad you liked it

@vorticalacorn7ok906 2 года назад

Im thinking of getting this bike as my first one. Im short at 5'6 what do you recommend to do with the bars to make them not be inwards

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

I would suggest aftermarket protaper bars as a replacement, most motorcycle shops have them and there are lots of different shapes and sizes to choose from. I have videos for installing them if you look through my channel, I put them on my grom and also my Honda crf250L if you want to see what you would be getting into for install

@vorticalacorn7ok906 2 года назад

@@ScoutsOut oh ok thanks man. Ill be gettin the bike tomorrow! Ill definitely look at those videos. Ride safe and have fun

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

Cool bro, enjoy the new bike 🍻

@eddieglover7774 2 года назад

What exactly would you do to the handlebars?

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

I would look into a protaper bar, and e that is more of a normal curvature, wider and maybe slight hire. Hope this helps

@Jarenballor 2 года назад

First time rider here, would you suggest this bike to me? I’m looking to buy this. Also does the front end want to come up when accelerating hard?

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

I think if you have ridden other motorcycles before and your not learning on the bike it would be a safer bet to get something smaller and lighter to learn on for your first bike but many do start on the 650 bikes and do just fine. If you crank the throttle hard it will power wheelie in 1st and probly second like my Yamaha R7 does

@Jarenballor 2 года назад

@@ScoutsOut thanks man, much appreciated

@amesthedemon4706 2 года назад

This was my first bike, full send it

@HurtfulWrld Год назад

i’m 18 thinking about getting this for my first actual bike i have some experience riding but nothing too serious but if this isn’t beginner bike friendly what would you recommend for a beginner who wants something that’ll be good to learn in but also be pretty quick?

@ScoutsOut Год назад

I think you would be amazed how fun the z400 is, i you feel you need a little bigger the z650 is not a bad staring point either

@HurtfulWrld Год назад

@@ScoutsOut what about a r3 or a 500f or r? are these any quicker but beginner friendly?

@ScoutsOut Год назад

Both are good bikes, I wouldn't say quicker. I would buy a ninja 400 or z400 over either of them

@Rotasa2 11 месяцев назад

Hi Can you test the Honda Hornet 750 and compaire it withe z650?..I love z650 but Hornet has more power and options...what is your advice? Thanks👍🙏

@ScoutsOut 11 месяцев назад

Man I’d love to ride one, if you are good with spending more money I’d say the hornet off of pure specs but more expensive upfront and probly more insurance.

@Rotasa2 11 месяцев назад

@@ScoutsOut in Belgium Hornet is 100€ more. Thanks

@ScoutsOut 11 месяцев назад

Oh that’s not bad at all!

@SpeedDemonExpress 2 года назад

How's the vibration in the handlebars, footpegs and seat? My hands and feet would fall asleep on the ninja 300.

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

I honestly didn't think the bike vibrated much at all it was pretty smooth.

@luiz576 2 года назад

I own a Z650 since feb.21. Very little vibration. Actually I Felt more vibration in MT07 when I tested It.

@Illness.og. 2 года назад

You’re weak, I ride a 300 not even enough to make the hands fall asleep.

@jefflambert8603 Год назад

I recomend the Optional Kawasaki comfort Seat it sits you in a much Better Position on the Motorcycle & gives you a little extra Legroom

@ScoutsOut Год назад

Totally agree, I had put the ergo seat on my ninja 400 and it was a great upgrade

@redajabrane8090 4 месяца назад

Does the model Z650 has ABS by default ??

@ScoutsOut 4 месяца назад

You can choose the non abs model for it

@polishm8241 2 года назад

Quick question what kind of torque wrench do you have? 🤔

I have the snap on 3/8 and 1/2 they are pretty old now though

@razvyrazvy6108 2 года назад

it is better then a Honda cb650 r or yamaha mt-07?? thanks

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

No I wouldn’t say it’s better, I prefer Honda for reliability Yamaha for sound and price and the kawi looks the best imo

@peteyscopez2712 3 месяца назад

What if you’re a fresh 30 year old? Seriously, never rode a motorcycle and completely a gear head into cars and likes bikes for a long time now. And can drive a manual. Still too much doing a z650?

@ScoutsOut 3 месяца назад

The 650s are pretty tame and the seat height allows for both beet on the ground for most people. It can bite you on the lower side but it could be used to learn

@Krom1hell 2 года назад

I'd say that the Z650 is for a smaller person :)).... Tried one, thought the position was very crumpled for a naked if you are tall and big. This is an 18 year old bike and above, that if you started fresh at 16 here your legal biking journey :) on road.....

@ScoutsOut 2 года назад

It was a little small but very fun bike, cheers
