Well here is my 2 cents. I have never owned a Ducati. I have owned a 1st Generation 2004 Kawasaki ZX-10R which lasted me up until this January 2023. Her engine gave up. That’s almost 20 years. That impressed me so much that a week after losing her I went and bought me a 2023 Kawasaki ZX-10R KRT. So far I’m in love with this bike. It pulls like no bike I have ever owned.

How many miles did you have on the bike before it gave up and did you get on it these ZX10 are bulletproof they can go a hundred thousand miles easy. I have a GSXR Hayabusa I purchase a 2005 brand new just turned twenty thousand miles on it I I'm in Connecticut we can't ride very often weather the bike looks like it came out of the showroom I got 20 more years probably riding it not even broken on yet however I'm thinking about trading it in and getting the ZX10 that bike is amazing personally I think it's the best liter bike out. Especially for the dollar.

I would love a Ducati gut to only be able to ride it for an hour now that would break my heart when we go out to ride it can be 9 or 10 hours stopping for drinks along the way you know how it is. anyway loved the video good luck to all riders ride safe stay alive.

Great in depth review CK. Your channel popped up in my feed the other day and have been enjoying your content, knowledge, and collection of some pretty amazing motorcycles!! I purchased a 19 Gsxr 750 back in January, to get back into riding. Have definitely enjoyed it and riding for for almost 6 months now and have been doing a lot of research on upgrading to a liter bike in the near future. I was able to get to check out the ZX10, and S1000 in person, and both are surprisingly way more comfortable than most other liter bikes in this class. Again, Thank You so much for the great info on the ZX10!!

Welcome back to riding! You are right about the comfort levels of the S1000rr and the ZX10. The comfort level of the bikes has become increasingly more important for me as I have gotten older. Your height and build will determine what level of comfort a bike offers. I am 6'2" around 210 lbs and have found the bikes that fit me best. I have owned many different motorcycles and have narrowed my collection down to 16 bikes...haha! I have previous iterations of both of these motorcycles 2013 BMW S1000rr and (2 ) 2010 Kawasaki ZX10r. A few years ago, I also added a 2018 S1000r to the stable. All have great engines, handling, and comfort! ...these bikes are keepers for me. That being said, I have a soft spot for Kawasakis. The ZX10r has been a phenomenal machine since its inception

You can't compare a four-cylinder in line with a two-cylinder V... What's more, the FIM itself classifies the Panigale V2 as a SuperSport while the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R is a SuperBike. The natural habitat of the V2 is with the R6, the ZX-6R, the F3 800 among others. The equivalent to the ZX-10R is the Panigale V4. I'll stick with the Kawasaki 100%.

Try as i have, i just can't like the kawasski it just isnt nice to the eye in my opinion. Growing up it was the look of a superbike that had me smitten before the performance blew me away which i guess is why i was always a yamaha guy and since realising the dream in 2018 and owning my first r1 the look and performance are both a thing of beauty similar to most ducati's reliable or not🤔 italians 🤷🏼♂️.
