DARKSHARK- Thanks for the kind words my friend, Thanks for being apart of the Channel 🙏🏻. You have yourself a Great Friday! And hopefully we Talk again Very soon.
Such a gorgeous bike! I love the color scheme and just all the little details Kawi added like the polished cooling fins on the sides of the engine. Bikini fairing looks sharp too!
It is a Sharp bike for Sure. That fairing does knock the wind of greatly too. Mike thank you for being apart of the Channel and Commenting 🙏🏻. Have a AWESOME weekend!!!
Yep on the GPZ 550, NO on the quick shifter- but you can ad one! Thanks for Watching and Commenting and being apart of the Channel 🙏🏻. Have a great weekend.

@@RayBowdenRides I just got back from offshore on Wednesday, I have two weeks to relax and ride my bike. I am just trying to find a day when it doesn't feel like a 1000 degrees outside.
@shawnaymond I know it's supposed to be 108 With the Heat index this weekend here in Dallas. You came back with a pocket full of money and now it's time to Enjoy the break huh? Man don't you get yourself in trouble 🤣. Have a Great weekend.
@@shawnaymondThat's what I have to do on my Gen 3 'Busa...or ride after 1600. Otherwise, the starter heatsoaks and the engine won't start if I have to kill it for a quick stop if I'm in traffic for five minutes.😅
I loved this thing when i was 7 or 8 years old, but of course back then too young to own it. But now given the chance, i am really torn between this and GSX8R. Bikes without fairings are impossible on the highway, or at least very, very uncomfortable. But with a Fairing maybe this is the answer!
I had a bike with the center stand- I miss that. That was the good Ole days! I think my 900 Ninja had one. Duane have a AWESOME weekend, and stay out of trouble!! 🤣
That's a tough one my friend- go sit on all of them and see which one says I LOVE YOU! THANKS for Watching and Commenting my friend 🙏🏻. Please Stay in Touch and let me know what you end up doing!
Interesting !!! Based on those choices, I think you need to pick which one you'll grow into. Meaning, how old are you ?! The Triumph and the Kawi...IMO, in my personal opinion...will be bikes that will stand the test of time, in terms of LOOKS. Maintenance too, for the Kawi.. But if you're 20, 30, 40, 50 years old...the Kawi is just gonna be a bike that still fits YOU. That Yamaha, style...has a ceiling on it, IMO.
Nice vid !!! I'm on the 2022 version, mine is black with grey rally stripes + brown seat. I get looks - questions - thumbs up on it every time I ride. Hope it can be a forever bike, can't see myself letting it go.
These bikes are timeless - you can not look at one with a Rider on it and not remember FUN TIMES!! Thanks for Commenting and being apart of the Channel 🙏🏻.
Seriously considering this bike. Saw one in person in a parking lot yesterday, and immediately fell in love. I’ve only ever ridden 70s and 80s vintage bikes, so the style appeals to me. I was considering the Honda CB1000R, but it’s not nearly as cool as this ride (plus, the Kawasaki gets MUCH better mpg, in the mid- to high 40s, whereas the Honda is in the low 30s. Which is not awesome for a modern, fuel-injected motorcycle, in my opinion. )
Beautiful bike. I think the origional Z1 came 10:48 out about 1972 in 903 cc. The sportier ones, with that type of racer fairing a few years later, i think. The original motirs were air cooled.
Thanks for the year model reference, I believe your Right. Thank you Les for always being apart of this channel. You Sir have a great weekend!! Thanks again.
Oh yes loud and clear ray in many ways it reminds me of my second motorcycle around the instrument cluster and it was the Kawasaki 350 3 cylinder back in 1974 or 1975 and it was a beautiful bike back in the day blue with black and yellow striped on a blue motorcycle thought I would share thanks ray
Hey Ray, it was nice meeting you at the Suzuki survey meeting the other evening!! I enjoyed the entire process and meeting some other riders from the dealership. Look forward to seeing ya at future events, man.
Beautiful bike, I work with a bloke, and believe it or not he has one of few originals of these, my word, still runs and everything, he wants to sell ot though as he says his bike days r over. Good stuff Ray mate oh and mate loven the shirts
Pause Take 750 off that price right now- but hey We like what we like and I understand you! Thanks for Watching and Commenting Paus, Have a AWESOME weekend- hope to talk to you again soon!!!
@pausANDplay Thank you sir, I done own the internet, and I wouldn't want to. I just love Motorcycles and the people who ride them. Living in America is what makes it Awesome, We can disagree sometimes and still go ride together and be friends!! You have a AWESOME weekend my friend. Talk to you again soon I hope🙏🏻
