Great review! I got back into riding last year after a few year hiatus and I chose a Z650 over the MT07, Z900, MT09, SV650, and the 650s from Honda. I went this route because I started on a 600cc super sport and loved the fun factor, then after 2 600cc bikes, I tried out a Harley Sportster and liked it for comfort, but hated the weight and lack of nimble handling. So when it came to going back to riding, I felt I wanted something that would feel nimble and at same time feel fast enough to have fun on the twisties. I ride mostly local roads so torque was more important than hp for me -- so a ptwin or vtwin were my preferred engine configurations. I debated the larger triples/4 cyl options like the mt09 and z900, but they both felt larger than i wanted so after sitting on all these bikes and doing tons of research I pulled the trigger on the z650. I haven't regretted it one bit -- while it is not a rocket like the 600s I owned when on the highway, it actually feels faster when on local roads, where I do most my riding anyway. It feels much more nimble than the harley and the sitting position is just right for me as I'm 5'7" with 30in inseam. Every bike has merits and negatives, it's about finding the one that fits your specific needs.

I like the torque myself and the Kawasaki 650 engine is a proven reliable motor.

The ninja is my pick because it has two seat height options. It's lighter. It'll get better gas mileage than cbr and its cheaper to insure. It's less expensive to maintain. Plus resale value on the cbr in my area is consistently worse than the ninja. Most people sell their bike eventually and you want to get the most back so you can get that mt10 or whatever you want after this one. The sv is kind of middle of the road boring and lacks its soulful character it used to have.

Please do a 600 super sport class comparison ! Great comparison. Very helpful to potential buyers

If I were to pick one, I'd go with the Ninja 650! I love the white, the dash, and the relaxed seating position, as you said. I've never ridden a bike and I was looking at the CBR500r, but I feel the Ninja would do it for me, it is a bit more than the 500, but the extra power would satisfy me a little longer I feel.

Ninja 650 I like comfort and it doesn’t cost that much at all

Incredibly detailed review. I went in to buy the black 2021 CBR but was told it was almost a year wait. So, I bought a 650 Ninja in red. I'm a former Harley rider, who hasn't ridden in about five years. I'm looking for a commuter and bike for riding in our beautiful park system. Thanks for such a comprehensive review.

Yo chase. I know you maybe take a lot of messages like this. But we really appreciate your hard work and the professionalism you put in these vids. Also you keep me company when im bored. So thanks for that. Have a good one.

Yesterday I bought a 2020 Ninja 650 with ABS for $7,199 and I paid cash for it. With ABS, the CBR650R is just about $10,000, which is significantly more, almost 50% more expensive. While I like the 4 cylinder sound of the CBR, I prefer the Ninja styling and the Ninja feels more like a premium motorcycle to me with the high-end TFT display, more comfortable seat and seating position for long rides and I like the handlebar design. Tail light looks better, and the front end looks more aggressive to me while the Honda looks more happy/girly. I wish the Ninja came in red but I got a black one and it looks great. The green KRT is cool but really it is just a bunch of stickers and I prefer paint. Insurance will be much less on the Ninja compared to Honda, fuel consumption much better, maintenance much lower on the parallel twin vs I4. Also, something you didn't discuss was the Kawasaki Rideology app which is another cool premium feature. Overall I'm very happy with this choice... frankly the TFT screen alone is a huge reason to buy the Ninja and you're looking at it the whole time you ride. The Honda screen looks very cheap and it is hard to read. Suzuki was out of the question for me because it is a whole different style of bike.

Here's a thought on the Ninja and it's agility. When I first bought it, I was a little surprised it wasn't as agile as I had thought it would be. But, two months later, and a leaking tire, I replaced the stock with Road 5's and the difference was huge. The bike is way more manoeuvrable than it was stock. Not having ridden the Honda, I can't say it is more agile, but it was a huge difference. The rain capabilities of the Road 5's are great as well. I'm a little biased on the Ninja but it does everything I want and need it to do to my riding capabilities and the types of riding I do. So, consider the type of riding you'll do. If it's a lot of highway or track days, the Honda is going to be the more fun choice with the inline 4. If it's a combo of city and highway/commuting, you'll have a better time on the Ninja because you're not having to keep it in a higher rev band. My only suggestion is, dump the stock tires for better rubber quickly. Get used to the bike first, feel it out, then swap the rubber and it'll feel somewhat like a new bike.

Yes this style of posting and comparison is perfect!!! I'm talking with somebody who's interested in his first bike I steered him towards 650s and your comparison consolidation video on top of the single videos of each bike is absolutely perfect keep up the good work chase hope you're doing well I know things here in Atlanta are getting hairy for us but keep that social distancing and see you on blood

There are a few things I don´t quite agree with you, I have a 2020 Ninja 650 and have a friend with the CBR650R so both of us have drive both bikes, and we have also tested the SV650 (which BTW we though it was very mediocre), but that is not the point In the video you say that the CBR650R is more agile and flickable than the Ninja 650, which I think is far from the truth, if you understand "agility" this as the easiness of the bike to change direction, the Ninja 650 is way more agile (understandable taking in mind that weights 20kg less and the chassis type is also different). Now, if understand for agility of the bike the stability when cornering, then, yes the CBR is miles ahead on that regard. Also in certain point of the video you coment that the seat of the Ninja is quite confortable, it may be form or size wise, but is quite hard, quite a bit more than the CBR one which is quite confortable (for a sport bike), as a matter of fact I am changing the Ninja seat next week for gel/viscolastic one. My impressions on both: CBR - Very stable when cornering - Amazing stock sound (is sounds really good above 10K RPM) - Very good brakes (for it class) - Smooth transmission - Quite bad when moving it around on parkings or closed spaces - Lights are decent, but not amazing - Awesome looks, even better on the black colou, it looks like a bat-bike - The dash is not as good as the Ninja one, but is decent, also, the visibility is good, most reviews complains about it having problems when there is no direct sunlight, but I think those reviewers don´t know you can increase the screen birgthness Ninja - Jack of all trades - Easy to manouver on parkings - Quite Flickable - Decent but not brilliant brakes - Decent transmission - It has some engine sound gruntiness which I like, although on stock form it doesn´t sound as good as the CBR - Seat comfort is quite bad (the passenger one is even worse) - Position is quite good - Lights are really good, in fact I have baptized it as "the illuminati" - The Dash is really nice for this price range, there are better ones (new BMWs), but I quite like it, you can also adjust for instance when the RPMs turn orange (which mean you should change gear) Both are very good bikes on their own, but on different ways, the Ninja is a commuter without any big drawbacks (apart from the seat) which you can have fun on corners. The CBR is a beast on highways and fast corners, it has some troubles on very curvy mountain roads, it´s a sport bike which you can also use as a daily.

I am from India, and I would say go with Ninja 650 for the following reason: 1. Better suited to the roads from India 2. Better suited for the way the driving sense among people here 3. Cost Effective You would find people coming on the wrong side more than the right side, driving in between lanes and out of control trucks trying to drive like a 2 wheeler. Because of these I won't be able to enjoy the ride and the CBR's full capacity as much as I would like to.

I am new-er rider and this video (and the Ninja 650 review) absolutely solidified my decision to get a new 2020 Ninja 650. I live in city and need a good commuter bike. I take the highway to get to work but not enough for the wind to really matter much. The Honda is too pricy for insurance and as much as I love that Cafe Racer style, my learner bike was a 1999 Ninja 500r so I looove sticking to the sport style. Thanks so much for making these reviews and giving us all the information to make a solid decision on the bikes. You've helped a TON! Keep the reviews coming because I know after a year or two of being on the 650, I'm going to want a bigger, heavier bike to really fill that niche for power and speed. Much love and safe riding!

Great video, very helpful. I love the look of the sv650x, but was really torn between the Honda and the Kawasaki. For months and months, I was convinced I would get the cbr, but then I test rode the ninja, straight after the cbr, and I just felt so comfortable and confident on it (maybe due to lower and slimmer seat). To hear it's a bit of a jack of all trades is encouraging. I prefer small country roads to motorways if I can help it, so the top end of the cbr won't be much use to me. And I am in love with the 2020 black and white ninja. Am a bit annoyed to see it constantly regarded as a beginner bike (not here though - thank you!), as that's something I am trying to get away from with my current bike when buying my next one. Even so, it seems ninja is the one for me

I've owned 15 or 20 bikes over the last few decades...Honda's, Kawasaki's, Suzuki's, Yamaha's, even a couple Beemers and an Ossa (!). A few years ago I used to road race. I like the corners, but I've also done 1,500 to 4,000 mile trips. I currently have both the Kawasaki 650 and the SV650. All three of these bikes meld sport bike and touring bike, but in different proportions. I've not ridden the Honda, but I've had a few four-cylinder bikes. They're just not as easy to ride as the two-cylinder bikes. You have to keep thinking about what gear you're in, how fast you're going and what's traffic doing the whole time you're on the bike. The high frequency vibration will wear on you after a few hours in the saddle. I just feel like the Honda is a "dumbed down" 600 sport bike. The Suzi and the Kawi can be ridden without thinking too much about what gear you're in, just wack the throttle open and their low-end torque will pull you away. They're fun to ride for hours because they're easy and forgiving. The SV650S is a young man's bike with its aggressive riding position. But, the Suzi is just a little more rough-hewn than the Kawaski. There's more vibration and the riding position is a little more likely to bother your back and your hands. It's an exciting bike, but not if you're over 30. It's a little more sporty and a little less touring bike than the Kawasaki. The Kawasaki 650 is sporty, but it's not a sport bike. I've taken mine on multi-day trips thru the Missouri and Arkansas twisties and you can bomb corners on it all day and not be cramped up. With its counter-rotating balancer, it's smoother than the Honda and the Suzuki. Lower initial cost and 50 to 55 MPG aren't to be ignored. Depending upon what model you buy, I like the additional protection that the larger fairing offers. I'll ride my Kawasaki 650 until I can't ride anymore.

It has no wind resistance and although its not a highway the road i take to work does have a 55 mph speed limit and I absolutely hate riding it on that road. Get pushed back way to much. Im now between getting a ninja 650, cbr 650 or a r7

Nice review, I was looking for the ninja cbr comparison and you did it perfectly. Now I just wish there was one that had the short person criteria.... Still, probably going to get the CBR because it's damn pretty and I live in a place with awesome curvy roads.

I really dont think you can go wrong with any of these awesome bikes :)

Bro what a question... of course you should do those type of videos ALL THE TIME EVERY WEEK a lot more interesting and more views... I was on vacation and everyday me and my daughter were waiting for your upload Thank you Chaseontwowheels

Thank you for this 🙏

cool channel!! happy to be subscribed

Great video, I would pick the SV, I ride a ZX11, but miss the low down torque of a V twin,(had a 750SS Ducati) . You may not be a mechanic, but you are an ace presenter, keep up the good work!!

I like it done this way personally but idk if it’s harder to do it this way or not as far as editing goes cause I know editing is a pain in the ass and I think I speak for everyone when I say we don’t want you getting burnt out . Do what ever is easier for you bro we got your back either way!

I'm currently on an 2009 ER6N and looking to upgrade to something newer as the engine size is more than capable to handle what I do. Being 6'2" and with experience on a naked bike, the SV is out of the question from the start, even before considering the $8399 price tag. The CBR is a great bike, but the features you've mentioned are easily eclipsed by the additional $1900 cost compared to the Ninja. The only downside to the Ninja is the clip-ons and seat, but coming it at $7799 new, it's something I could live with. So, not unless a leftover CBR is drastically reduced, the Ninja is the winner for me...or perhaps a 2017/18 CBR650f.

What did you choose? The ER6F and Ninja 650 are comparable in performance. That's not an upgrade, is it?

I like this format of up loading videos if you're going to be doing a comparison. If you're just reviewing a bike and not a particular class, then I'm fine uploading a video as a one-off. Might I also add, I really like the rolling shots from another vehicle. Yhey're absolutely gorgeous.

The Ninja would win for me because we get so much motorcycle for the lowest price, great tech, and great looks all while remaining fuel efficient, reliable, and comfortable.

@chaseontwowheels: yes, I definitely liked the way you did this comparison series, great job bro!

Thank you for the review. I ride a mint condition 2007 plasma blue Kawasaki 650R Ninja with 4,050 miles. It has 72 horsepower with 48 ft lbs of torque and has a dry weight of 392 lbs. It has no emission restrictions. It's quite a fast bike. It is great on the freeway with the fairing. I've thought of the CBR650R, but my bike is just as fast in the city and at top end, and my bike is a lot lighter. I've thought of a SV650, but it would suffer on the freeway compared to mine.

Loved it!

I was dead-set on the ninja 650 for my first bike. After you did this comparison I started leaning towards the CBR 650R. Before this video the Honda was not even on my radar. After watching I checked it out and loved it. Thank you for the great videos and helping me pick my first bike!

@@Leaguedup I purchased a brand new 2019 CBR 650R and absolutely love it. Although it is not a liter bike or exceptionally speedy it does the job. Not only does it do the job but it does it exceptionally well. After commuting with it, going on joy rides, or just random cruising on the highway, I can say that it is excellent in all of the aforementioned categories. I am not going to sit here and tell you that it is a speed demon, or the epitome of comfort. But I will tell you that it is a jack of all trades that can perform in any criteria despite not being the industry leader in said criteria. I would highly recommend, still love my bike!

@@mlgfated7667 thanks for the reply! It’s very helpful. Safe riding!

Cost Effectiveness: I just picked up a new 19 Ninja 650 (non abs) from the dealer for 5400.

Excellent video

Dash: Agree with your assessment. Looks: You crazy. Honda wins hands down. Engine: Agree. Nothing beats their inline four, but from a stop light, you gotta rev high. Ergos: Haven't ridden the other two, but the CBR650R has what I call a one-hour seat. Agility: The CBR650R folds over like a wet napkin. It is amazing. I own its sister bike, the Neosports Cafe version... the CB650R. The single-best motorcycle I have ever owned. 9 months and 4K miles into it, I'm looking forward to the next 4K. Great reviews!

i love the comparison thing it keeps things in close perspective.

I’m looking for my first big bike, and am doing my homework right now. I’m from England and after being into cars all my life, these bikes seem cheap to me for what i’m used to. As it stands, the CBR650R is standing out for me. I like the one with mat black with the red graphics.

These comparison series are great! Now I'm going to ask you again.... PLEASE do a middleweight naked bike comparison!!!!

I like the new format style

I like this comparison style format, but I did notice that some of your categories blended together. Example...when talking about the engines, you mentioned how the bikes felt in the truck. I think that should have been more of the ergonomics catagory. Small criticism aside, it was a great first iteration in the format. Fun videos to watch!

Keep on doing this format. It's good. I thought the comparison was very fair. However, the fact that you have a MT10 in you r garage and the SV is different to it, it's a bit of a stretch to say that it wins for you on that basis. I would stick with the bike comparison. I've got a CB650r that's great in town. It's low geared so the lack of immediate torque isn't a problem. Thank you for the vid.
