    Still one the best 4cylinder money can buy, very balanced bike!

    And judging by the brevity of this video, not much of a bike or category the MCN crowd cares much about these days.

    Some ways, tyres are the most important. I bought a BMW with Dunlops, and it the bike was skittish, especially in the wet which knocked my confidence. Someone told me to change them for Metzelers. Althoughthe Dunlops were I good condition, I took their advice. Metzelers completely transformed the handling of the bike.

    I never felt the snatchy throttle spoken of in this video. It feels so smooth and don't have to worry about accidentally wheeling like a mt.

    I love my 2019 z900 and the only thing i wish it had from the 2020 was the LED headlights... I honestly hade the new craze of just square digital screens on bikes and i care not about ride modes... the reason my bought the 2019 is because it doesn’t have all of those things

    Got my license suspended on an Z900RS last year in what seemed like a calm, effortless passing manouver on a twisty country road. Can tell you that engine is an absolute gem. It's hard to explain that grunt if you've never tried it. The mid revs is where this bike lives at.

    I been thinking wich bike i should buy and i watch alot of review about MT O9 ,Versy 650 ,Honda CBR 650 ,Honda 500x where my friend chose Adventure bike like Versy 650 .My personal reference to chose the bike where i go first to the look of the bike ,the performance and the most important the sound espacially 4 cylinder engine which i love the most . The nearest in my mind now is Z 900 .Thank for the review sir 🙏.

    I have the 2018 model and the throttle is smooth as butter from the minute you pull away mine is the 68 model so maybe they changed the 68 model compared to the 2018 I don't know. Anyway someone is saying that the MT 09 is far better than the z900 have they ridden both bikes to compare because I have and I finding Z900 is much more better in traffic in high-speed everything keep doing the reviews fantastic 😎

    I’d be more than happy with one on a better set of tyres.

    I have a 2018 Z900 and it's a great bike. I test rode the competition it's up against and in my opinion it's the best of the bunch, as it does everything well.

    I had 05 Z750 for 4 years and now it got replaced by Street Triple R 14. The biggest downsize of the Z for me was the weight that is over 220 kg´s curb. Great to see, they are trying to make the Zed lighter.

    Rode the Z900 twice at demo rides and I will some day have one. Good god is it smooth!! I didn't experience any jerkiness of the throttle though.
