NEW: 2024 Kawasaki Z500 vs Z500 SE - All The Differences Explained! 

Discovered motorcycling late in the game (at 64) and now at 70 the weight of the bike is eveything. Picked up a close-out z400 model and wow what fun! What else can you buy that makes you feel young again? Love the channel Peter..I learned alot from you.

SE version also a USB-C port under the front left fairing!

In the US I’m only seeing the red and green options and I’m not a fan of those at all. I like that black style I’m seeing in CA. Very nice.

1973 15years old CB125-RD350-F81M-T20-TS185-Z440-RD350(lots)-RZ350(track)-FZ400-Ninja300 now K400 and loving it. Hoping to see Z500 in New Zealand. Unseen, or unsat? I am sold on the flatter seat. My Z400 is great fun so why not have the 50cc and a flatter seat. 🏍

Nice job I want those green wheels for my Vulcan s

Great video Can you compare Kawasaki’s 500’s vs Hondas 500r and 500 hornet/500F please

Any plan for upcoming video comparing it with the Z400?

Interesting comparison, cool bikes, thanks. Those rims and top frame highlights look good in green. I like when Kawasaki offers more full color choices, like their mostly green bikes, but also red, yellow (rare for Kawasaki), orange, or blue. Lately as of 2024, they've been mostly gray or black for stealth I guess, though stealth on a motorcycle might not be the most eye-catching for other drivers/sometimes harder to spot in traffic.

Is it possible to get the green SE in the US?

Oooh, we don't get the green-wheeled one in the states. Ours is red. And the green on your wheels isn't K777-green, is it? Its their metallic green.

I would have bought an SE if it came with those wheels in the US. Here, it comes with red wheels instead of green. I dont like the red wheels. I chose the base model for black rims. Its strange how they only have certain colors in certain countries instead of giving us more choice.

Alll fun and games until the led headlight goes out and you have to replace it...

Nice 👌

You look a little scrunched up in the legs. Does Kawi offer a tall seat ? Do you think it would help materially?

Am I the only person to point out that the Honda is 47? something, it’s not 500cc, but your point about power is taken. I still believe however that such a small, in comparison to your nominal 900cc, they should be called 450’s.

ye thumbs down because too much talk on ninja...who cares, dont drive it or ever had, just wanted the info on title...too long on the FTP differences as well, not a good go over guy, learn to edit yourself please

Could you do a comparison of the z500 se and z650

This Bike is easy to ride so flickable

Hi Peter

Too basicccccc!
