WETWANG | Living with a Kawasaki ZX-10R 

we need boothy to give a comparison between this and the golden mobility scooter

Heavy on the brakes... "F***ing shithouse!" 🤣🤣 Brilliant 👏

Shaping up to be my favourite 44 🦷 commentator. Thanks for the ridealong, Boothy.

It does have a fuel gauge of sorts, click the mode down button to find it. It works a bit different though as it calculates fuel usage since you last reset it. So you fill her up, toggle the fuel info with the mode down button, hold the reset button for 3 seconds approx to reset it. You need to know how much fuel the tank holds so if you do you can atleast keep track of your fuel usage. Better than nothing. Here's a video on how to go about it : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jr7xZUjBqMQ.html

Boothy's commentary never fails to crack me up "oh $h!t better slow down for WETWANG" what a line. Solid addition to the 44teeth team

What you said about sportsbikes for the road is exactly why I sold my R1 to buy an MT10 and then sold that for an Africa Twin. I can use every bit of my 100bhp now and chuck it around little lanes, the R1 could do 100mph in 1st gear and the MT10 was just a wheelie machine and you'd be at 100mph in a few seconds.

Boothy is the shizzle, look forward to the long term ZX-10R test. Thank you from the U.S.

Not trying to be a smart ass, but for me part of the experience with any new motorbikes is reading through the owners manual, it often reveals so many useful pieces of information and things you didn't even realise the bike can do, and they're never really that long. It'd help avoid all this confusion like not having a fuel gauge and not knowing how to set the cruise control, because these detract from the experience unfairly, when all is needed is a little user input.

The battery looks nice and easy to access. My old ZX 12R was a mini engineering project just to get to the terminals, it was a 2001 model though

Love the look of these ZX10’s - look proper mean. Really looking forward to this years misadventures ✊🏻🤟🏻

That was a nice little ride. Thanks for taking us along.

Awesome old school vlog, really enjoyed that! Thanks dude

Loving the scenery, I know it well... great chippy in Wetwang.

Nice to see Boothy at Seaways…brilliant cafe and fantastic supporters of Yorkshire Air Ambulence amongst other things 👍

Still amazed Boothy is filling up near me at Morrisons Beverley, I'll be on the look out! Great vid, also enjoyed seeing familiar roads.

Boothy is top quality Looking forward to more of these

More of these vlogs please, great work Boothy and we all love riding sportbikes!

Brilliant riding through my home town nice to see roads I know

Hit it on the head boothy Those of us still riding sportbikes in this day and age where we are spoilt for choice...we are choosing to ride them because of everything you mentioned, especially those moments when no one is looking

out riding that way all the time myself with a group, hopefully catch you out and about this year!

Really enjoyed seeing such familiar roads for a change!

Good vid & seems a nice bike too. I like it a lot more than I thought I would. Decent offering by Kwak & obviously goes well too, plus not crazy money.

Nice run out Boothy. By’eck ya do make me larf out loud, “way’up ya bugger” is my favourite shout out when I’m riding and I love a sing song to mesen too. Love the induction roar of that Ten. Looking forward to more. Cheers 🍻

If you leave your bike for long periods of time, and can't use a trickle charger, take the battery off and if poss keep it on a charger indoors instead, or just kept off the bike so it drains slower as I'm sure it has an alarm draining it. Or run the bike up to temp every week or so to get the juices flowing and put charge in the battery. My 22 y/o ZX9r is outside all the time, has the original Datatool Vito Evo alarm and never had a problem, left without starting two weeks or more at times and is ok.

Your ramblings always crack me up. 😂

i like that quiet exhaust it has for sucha fast machine. I got a Yamaha Stryker cruiser and its pretty quiet compared to the Vance and Hines drag style pipes i had on it for a while, couldnt handle how loud they were 24/7. Nice video man

Very baron von grumble esque boothy , needs to be more of these style videos very much enjoy them , with the thoughts , trials and tribulations as you ride 👍🏻

"Ahh, fuck knows" total legend Boothy. 😆

I'm gonna pull the trigger on a zx10r next year i think. Wanted one for donkeys years. So seeing your long-terming one this year is good for me. Could listen to you banging on about nothing for hours boothy. Keep it up, all the best to you, sue and statham too 👍😎👍

Boothy is the"milks great fast show" road tester par excellence !!! Brilliant Boothy 🙃 All of you Great !!! Mossy were are you....hiding

Great video just hearing you chat away about bollocks some times is brilliant keep it up love it 👍😁

Thanks Boothy, hoping to do the same very soon. ✌️🍻

My bike is often "flat" too but I got one of those Lithium jump starters and it makes the whole thing a non issue. Highly recommended. They're small enough to take with you too, in case you cant start it away from home.

There’s absolutely no way you ride it like that when the camera is off 🤣🤣🤣

Enjoyed riding with ya boothy.....looking forward to the next one.....your bang on thou with your comments, my panigale makes no sense at all on the road, i am tempted to get rid and get a monster instead.......

Cool vid mate. Great looking bike. 👌🏼. I hate riding in the cold. At my age need a wee every 5 min lol.. camt wait to see what you do to the zx10r. When's Chris doing the s1000rr up ?

I grew up near to where the petrol station is at the start! There's some ace roads round that way, I do miss it now I'm down in Bristol. Great review, look forward to the long term test ride reviews coming up.

Another entertaining ride along,thanks!

Beverley! Stones throw from me! Love the road's round there. Should have guessed with the title! Not got into the video fully, wonder if seaways comes up?😉👍🏼

I couldn't stop laughing when you said you had a bit of whisky throttle and nearly came off,I just had this vision of you coming off in a 30 zone

I love sports bikes on the road , pick your spots and go fast.ZX10R looks very inviting.

I don't understand people who don't get off the bike to fill up and that splash of fuel is exactly why

With current prices that's about £3.50 spilled all over the tank and forecourt.

This is going to be my first bike. Great review 🫡🇨🇦

I know those roads well, the wolds make good riding as there's never a great deal of traffic about most of the time.

Goodman Boothy’ great to see you out on all my local roads and love a bit of wetwanging my self. East yorkshire to front.

If you have that bike long-term, one of the best upgrades is a lithium (Li-Fe) battery. They are dramatically lighter and don't go flat like traditional lead-acid batteries. I've had them in my last 2 bikes and they could sit for months without charging, and every time the bike started like the battery was new.

I was in Wetwang yesterday!! Lovely roads!

Thanks for your always great content - please can you do a review of heated gloves do they work?

Love watching booths 👍👍

That bike is probably around 160bhp at the back wheel standard. It needs a de-cat, exhaust , sprint air filter and a ecu tune to get it near 200 bhp 😜. Don’t let this road riding make you soft for the TT👍

Nice to see boothy on the local roads surrounding me. Love them, literally one roundabout away from absolute bliss.

The petrol over the bike made me cry inside.

Top tip: Most motorcycle charging systems don't put that much charge into the battery. Most the the current is take by all the electronics. Putting a bike battery on a charger / maintainer for 24 hours every few months will make the battery last longer.

Boothy the Pub Singer!! shabby doo shabby doo...nice snarl form the airbox when you give it laldy..

Get it round the Helmsley loop when weathers better. Perfect roads for that thing.

The music on 44t allways makes me laugh "twinkle twinkle little star hahahah"

More of these please !

If it's not a regular ride then disconnect the negative terminal when you put it away ... it will last longer ... no parasitic drain. Upgrade to Lithium if you want it to last even longer. Anderson plugs make the connect / disconnect even easier.

Nice one Boothy,i'm just getting ready for first ride of the year,youve just bought it forward a bit,love just going nowhere,are you going to fit a wheel either side and paint your zx10 gold LOL.Take care buddy.

my MT03 660 doesnt have a fuel gauge either, so i just use the trip meter to guess (around town it does about 135miles between fill ups). you get about 35miles out of it once the fuel light comes on though if i have forgotten to reset the trip... the other point of note with the new E10 fuel is that it goes off much quicker, so if you leave it more than a few months there is a chance that its gone bad and the bike will run like crap. if you're laying a bike up over winter its best to use the higher octane fuels as the last fill which dont the same degradation issues.

Blimey Boothy!! Get yourself an Oxford Solar charger if you haven't got power in your garage. Got one on mine and keeps the battery toasty charged!!😎🏍👍

I nipped into DRYGASH the other day, was a bit of a rough ride...

A solar panel/charge controller with a car battery and I use a optimate dc to dc charge to keep my bike charged. 👍

That looks like Sunday two weeks back as saw that car parked before Tibthorpe. Did a quick bimble to Seaways myself from Hull via Beverley for a number 1, gave their coffee a miss tbh. If your looking for a good local stop the Cafe in the Woods at Fimber has cheap coffee and cake.

11:02: wet wang was where the guy who hosted countdown, on telly, for many years came from !!

Really pleased to see it's not just me who sings to myself while riding 🤣

Like the baron beginning. Just riding. So good! Thx

Had the rst gloves for 3 years now , and wouldn’t go back to heated handlebars , the gloves keep the back of your hands warm as well . If going on long trips I carry spare batteries just in case 😊😊 70years of age now so sports bikes are long in the past r1 s , fireblades etc. but the happy memories are still there + as I live on the iow I’d never get out of third 😂😂😂😂, great vlog 👍👍😊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Enjoyed that...found it v relaxing.

Great wittering Boothy. 👍

Always came across as a cool bike to me. Probably the widow maker heritage that this and the r1 had. Something the s1000rr/v4/cbr never had.

Love boothy on team

Great video dude love the kawaski bikes I own a zx6r j2 2001 love being a biker

My A1P doesn’t have a gauge ! Just runs out of fuel until I put the reserve on ha ha

Boothy we need more ZX-10R content!

Made me a bit homesick, that. I used to live in Bishop Wilton and York.

Can’t believe you put E10 in and from Morrisons of all places

It having no fuel level is weird, cause that's the same dash as the Ninja 650 which has the fuel level indicator where you have throttle position. Kinda feel like Kawasaki could make it an option in the menu for it to show fuel level there and stick a float in the tank. Also, is throttle position really needed? We've all managed this long, and staring down at the dash to see what position your right wrist is seems kinda unsafe.

Replace that battery mate. Once it's discharged too much it will never recover properly.

Yi can tell a racer, cannit even put fuel in.

Perhaps do a short video with this and the BBB ZX-7R?

Great video booooooothy x

Boothy such a great addition to the 44 team...not sure about the singing though 😆

I love sportsbikes. I could never be without one

It's definitely weird seeing the roads in my town in a 44teeth video

Boothy FTW! Agree that superbikes are wasted on the UK roads if you're planning to stay legal 👍

Little Snoring near Norwich isn't as hilarious as Wetwang, but I definitely want to go there for a peaceful holiday some day.

Love the roads up to wetwang and malton.

Couldn't believe it when I just noticed you were riding through the town I live in. Maybe I'll see you out and about one of these days. Black gsxr1000 K6. Ride safe

I love this bike. bought it last year, my first ever Superbike and its perfect for a first time Superbike owner . right up until it was nicked by a gang of bike thieves , I owned it for just 12 weeks. I'm still gutted. gutted.

What a lovely load of waffle😂 Look forward to the next ZX10 vid👍🏽….

6:17 WTF! BS! 🤣🤣🤣

Love this. Used to live in Kilham. Know all these roads. Hunmanby is funnier than Wetwang when people call it Human Baby.

Got a 2000 ZX9R last year. Low sided on the way home. Why? The tyres date was "0402", which means the fourth week of 2002, they were 20 years old. Good video. So relaxing.

boothy at the beloved seaways

This is so close to me and I’m pretty sure I’ve seen you before but never got chance to say hi

Lol you are a funny bugga, on another note hear in Australia we don’t even go out riding unless above 18 or 20, but we don’t go out when it’s above 32, which means most of summer is to bloody hot. Oh when I had my awesome ZX I used trip A on the trip computer to tell me how much fuel I have left, anyway great vid

I gave up litre bikes because of road conditions, traffic and Police. I have a couple of singles - the Fantic Caballero and the 701 Vitpilen. Between them I have sufficient for the road.
