Can't deny the sharp looks, and aggressive crossplane sound. But as a daily rider, and chasing that high mph zx10r. Not to mention. Bluetooth, cruise control and heated grips, hell you don't need a phone mount, just keep it in your pocket. I literally just spoke to a guy today that stated these features enhance the the riders experience and why he chooses to ride that bike the most of the fleet of bikes he has. Awesome video.
cross plane sound like a truck or tractor or 2 cylinders... I love Yamaha...but not crossplane...may be fun to ride...delivery of the power...maybe smooter... but normal plane sound way more agressif
Gotta go with the R1. I own the 2022 R1 and love it. It is my second R1. I have owned the GSXR1000R but the R1 sound and looks is intoxicating! The ZX-10R is a great bike no doubt!
Have owned both now for 7 months and have to say I love both bikes, both a fine pieces of art, bith produce eargasmic music, and fine examples of engineering 👌 But if had to pick one the Zx-10r all day (IMO) Rides better through powerband and feels more planted through corners, sounds better , and more raw experience (what I prefer), also more comfortable to me (5'11 128lbs) Ride safe 🤙🏍 Get more compliments on the Ninja🤷♂️
@@labulaut5032 I know some will argue that cross plane is smoother and takes out inertial torque from crankshaft itself rotating so its a better bike but theres more to it. For me and in my opinion I like chasing through high rpms I like the l more raw feeling of the zx10r and even though the R1 has a smoother engine but on the road the zx10r feels more alive/aggressive to me also smoother suspension. Breaks are a little better in my opinion I ride hard and fast evertime I ride, I enjoy more the Ninja more in the corners/twistys and feel more confident. Ninja is more comfortable personally. I like that the Ninja has smart phone connectivity, heated grips and cruise control and the dysplay is brighter better for sunny days and better layout kawasaki just naild it to me.I think it sounds way better (But I love that screaming inline 4)Have a Akrapovic evolution line titanium full exhaust system 🎶 (R1m has Akrapovic titanium evolution GP exhaust system) Don't get me wrong I love both bikes and I wouldn't sell either of them I have fun with both but If I had to pick one it would be the Zx10r hands down but I got both so win win lol both my dream bikes just my opinion 🤙Ride safe
If we talk about speed Kawasaki win but I choose r1.. why? Cause the crossplane sound,the body shape, the anger looks.. when I see r1 in street God damn I wish I can buy and have that ♥️
In the Philippines, the yamaha-r1 is priced $2,000-$4,000 more than the zx10r. Making the decision easier. Also, there is a pure black color variation for the zx10r.
@@hiteshgujarathi4636 engine performance? Why kawasaki performs faster than r1 on most videos of r1 vs zx10 not mentioning the specs of zx10 is better than r1.what makes the r1 special is the crossplane and its name on motogp thats it nothing else.
@@nappyboy5513 have you ever ridden any of this two bikes? If you don't then don't give others opinion. R1 is always better than kawasaki in all aspects.
Honestly I would choose the R1. The differences are irrelevantly small. The Yamaha is sleeker and much sexier looking IMO. You get all the power from the Kawasaki and honestly cross plane wow.
@No_Name dominates in the Moto GP world. Yamahas are way more attractive and as far as sound, easy exhaust swap. Done funny how the “specs “ really don’t matter. Those two bikes are close in stats the difference is minor or irrelevant. Have a good day 👍🏽 cross plane lol kawi will never have that.
@No_Name ok bud, you sound like you have a bad life. You are making it a point to shit talk a beast of a bike. Have a good day I could care less what a nobody thinks. Peace bro ride safe.
Amazing job! I own an old sports tourer Yamaha, YZF600R Thundercat and I am in love with it, to me it is nearly perfect. I have a YBR125 for daily rides also and I am absolutely happy. However, when it comes to a supersport, it will definitely be Kawasaki.
Also, historically speaking, its the way the engines that make power, that should be closely analyzed. Them one could argue that having a higher hp is irrelevant.
@@banankatten675 yamaha is top notch in terms of reliability....no doubt Kawasaki is also very reliable but when it comes to yamaha's reliability thn no one is even near
I really like both, but Im not sure, cuz Im 6’4” tall and idk which one of those seats are higher and comfortable for me. Ive never seen an R1 in person. Tough decision.
Kawaski is good but yamaha is best ❤️. Crossplane engine which makes r1 stand Out of the crowd... 😋.. kawasaki focus its power output for straight linear tracks ...but its not reality..
People fighting for the specs between these two great machines isn't fair. Don't be a douche guys... This community love any kind of bikes No hate,we love all ❤️
r1 is gorgeous and most expensive bikes of Yamaha but 🙃 i have a question for r1 fans!! Everywhere you see yamaha machine like r15 v4 v3 m!! But have you ever seen everwhere a kawasaki?? No righit.. So that why is premiere and rare in local areas than yamaha
From Philippines here nice video both bikes are really damn good I already see both of them in showroom and damn if I have money I will buy both of them 🤣 but If I have tight budget I go for the zx10r but my dream really is the Yamaha r1 or even the r1m damn the looks and design and the feels and the CROSSPLANE nobody beats that sound ❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥 but both bikes are really really good🔥🔥❤️❤️☺️
These bikes are extremely sexy. You're a lucky person to have either. One might have a preference for one or the other, but let's be honest, it's down to the minutiae for most of the differences
@The Night kawasaki never had deadly gearbox issues like yamaha did,never had engine blow ups,like yamaha do,never had bad security issues,like yamaha do
