Review form a 165cm swedish dude: Had mine since 2017 too 38000+ km (i regret never getting a new exaust after hearing your bike). You dont need more power on the road. Riding with people on sports bike who are "How the fuck can you keep up" ...(of course you are not keeping up on a straight, but who cares..).. well we are on twisty roads and you use 50% of our bike and I might use 80% of mine and I am not really pushing it... I changed my bar position too a bit higher too feel more one with the bike. I guess its because i've been riding motocross all my life. Love the bike and been doing camping trips like. 2000+ km and 10days+ camping trips through Norway and if u dont have some decent bike shorts you are going to have a bad time. Again I love the bike but it is time to upgrade. I am now choosing between a adventure bike or a sports bike and I dont know what to do..
@@throttledads1465 Ill prob stay with the Z650 one more year and do some "course days" and then get a cheaper adventure bike and a "competition bike". I just have to watch my economy.. I also have an old 80s cafe cb650 that needs some love... Motorcycles just cost tooooo much money... slow and steady i guess...
