"... Sounds like a motorcycle, doesn't sound like the government tryna stop you from makin' noise and having fun" lmao I'm Rolling! tail tidy/frame sliders/rad guard/exhaust are the 4 things I'm doing to my new z650 so thanks heaps for the vid so I could get a listen. I miss oz so much, can wait to head back to visit. ride safe
sounds great hey? Thanks for watching mate, The Zed is a fun bike to ride and with the pipe sounds bloody great..Hope you get back here soon bud..If ya around call in and say G'Day...Thanks for watching mate..
Sure does, Thanks for your support mate, Should have some new stuff up soon, Been super busy for 6 months and no time to get excited.. Am feeling some excitement coming on soon.. Cheers.
I hear ya mate, The Z650 eats the MT-07 and it is shame that the people don't even get to ride the Zed, Oh well not for everyone!! Thanks for watching mate..Enjoy..
I'm in the U.S. and we don't have restricted bikes. I've owned a new Ninja 650 with the same motor as the Z650 of course and ridden several Z650s with the Akro exhaust. In each case the Akro exhaust was a bit quicker and best....MUCH SMOOTHER. My Ninja has lots of high frequency, tingly, finger numbing vibrations between 4-6 RPM. However, the Akro exhaust system seems to reduce that substantially. I don't know why, but it does. Also, I"m 5'5" tall and this bike fits me better than any of my previous bikes...and I've had six others. However, I would think that if you are six feet or more then this bike is probably too small for you ergonomically.
Nice bike they sure are, I do know it is probably a bit small for me, but is still fun, Thanks for watching mate..They do sound a lot better with the Akra as well..
Subscribed, love your videos! I’m at a cross between a z900 and a 790 duke but this did cross my mind as well, sure does sound good with an exhaust! Keep up the good videos.
Thanks Dimitri, Appreciate your support, Some good bikes out there hard to choose just one to put in the garage...Thanks for watching and subscribing..Enjoy..
I love the look of this bike, and the size, it looks as nimble as a 125. The downside is that they sound like a 125, I'm looking at getting one in the near future but I just can't get passed the awful sound of parallel twins. I think if I do, I'll definitely be looking at getting the performance edition (Not sure if this is just a UK version, but it comes with the Akrapovic and the extras for £1000 more than the standard version) as it sounds slightly better!
She sure does handle well,Nimble as, As for the exhaust an Akra is an awesome addition to this bike,Sounds great and takes some weight off too..hope you enjoy the new bike. Thanks for watching mate.. :)
Hello Aussie Kawiman! I was wondering if I could use this video in a Kawasaki z650 exhaust compilation? I will give u both credit and a link to your video in the description.
@Aussie Kawiman Thank you! Well I don't think it is okay to take videos that people have spent hours on making without asking for their permission...
Thanks for stopping by.. You can take the rear seat off and add a cover that looks pretty cool, In Australia we can register these as a solo rider makes it a bit cheaper. Enjoy. :)
Cheers mate, The old jacket is a Racer X jacket, Was sold in Australia by McLeod Accessories when i worked for them years ago.Similar to Dri-Rider etc, Is old but fits well. Not waterproof just vented, I really should have a new one but have not got around to it, Thanks for watching mate..Enjoy.
Tail tidy did not get done, Just a cost issue as if we sell it and they don't want it ,it is a fair cost to remove. Break in?? Most bikes are good to go from the start, Never had an issue with any bikes being ridden from the start.It's a Kawasaki ,It can handle it..Cheers mate, Thanks for watching...
Not sure on other states rules and regs, Best to check out your state before any confusion... Please do not take my word for anything I am but an amateur.... Thanks for watching mate..

Might be a silly question. But I have the Versys 650, which I am pretty sure is the same engine. Would it be fair to say it would sound the same with the Akro system?
Yes sure is, The same engine in Zed,Ninja,Versys and EN 650's, Great engine, They even had a class in Isle Of Man where everyone had the same engine and built a bike around it, were getting 230kph + from these...So great motor. Oh- Yes would sound the same.. Thanks for watching mate. :)
Legally it can not be Deredistricted unless it is taken off the LAMS register,To do this you will need a dealer to do it and have it removed form the register.Once it is removed as a LAMS bike i can never be put back on as a LAMS bike.Or you can buy a full powered version from the dealer..If you are not licensed for an r class bike you will be breaking the law and be void of all insurances.. best not to do it ..
Yep she is the full Titanium, I think the Carbon looks great but over time looks a bit worn, Both sound great though..Good luck mate and thanks for watching...Enjoy
I would not say"lost performance" but did not give it a sufficent gain in power, As this model is restricted for our LAMS riders (Learners) it does not allow it to increase, To make it increase the power you would need to de restrict the bike and make in open power bike,then you would see again in power. Thanks for watching.And commenting, Enjoy..
Not really, We did not do that, But in a perfect world,would be an idea, On the unrestricted model for sure, would give it a cleaner and more powerful burn..Thanks for watching mate..Enjoy
Not in all cases, In a perfect world you would tune it but this video was a quick look at the LAMS Z650 with a pipe.If anything it sounds a lot better, Thanks fir watching..Enjoy. :)
4Banger? As in 4 stroke? It is a 4 stroke. Or maybe you meant 4 cylinder? Sorry mate but trying to work out what ya mean. Thanks for watching though. Cheers.
This is one of the best and most underrated bike
Yep i agree mate,A great bike to ride and hanles so good.Thanks for watching mate.

Sure does, Thanks for your support mate, Should have some new stuff up soon, Been super busy for 6 months and no time to get excited.. Am feeling some excitement coming on soon.. Cheers.
Id buy this just cause that guy is a legend lol
Thanks for that, I try my best.. I have one waiting here for you ready to go..Thanks for watching.. :)
Wow the z650 akrapovik exhaust really sounds 👍🏻
Yeah mate sounds great hey, If only it was the full powered version so it could give it more power too, thanks for watching mate...Enjoy
yeah got mine
As soon as I heard THE WHO I hit the like button!
That Akrapovic sounds pretty wicked!
Cheers mate, Sure does, Thanks again for your comments, ....
If I was an Aussie, I would buy a bike from this guy any day
Thanks mate.. Appreciate the support.... Thanks for watching
This bike makes U wonder when everybody and their grandma is tellin U to get an Mt07... looks awesome in green and black too!
I hear ya mate, The Z650 eats the MT-07 and it is shame that the people don't even get to ride the Zed, Oh well not for everyone!! Thanks for watching mate..Enjoy..
The best Kwakka shop in OZ!!
Thanks Outback Al...We try mate...We try...!!
I wish Kawasaki had an inline 4cyl version of this bike. I like the look of the Z650 but want an engine like the Honda CB650r.
With the extra cylinders comes a fair bit more weight a touch over 20kgs more.But who doesn't like an inline 4.. :0 Thanks for watching mate..enjoy
But then you won't buy that as it's gona priced higher for you.
Sounds great now
Sure made it sound like a bike with real power..Thanks for watching mate..Enjoy
With this man standing next to it, it looks as if the bike is a z125 🤪

Sweet ride hey mate...Glad you lie it mate..enjoy your time on this one...

You So make that bike look small lol. I do love those bikes though
Yeah i know....But they are so good to ride...Thanks for watching mate..Enjoy
Doesn’t matter what pipe you put on that bike, it still just sounds like a lawnmower
Yeah agreed mate, But what else can you do to these parallel twin 650's??? Thanks for stopping buy mate..
Guy looks like he is about 6'4 that is why it looks small
Yep spot on mate,6'4" is how tall i am...cheers amte..
I want that exhaust for mine sounds amazing 😀😀
Go get it mate....Is a good addition,I can get one sorted for you if you need,Thanks for watching mate...Enjoy
In the UK mate a Kawasaki system here is £1200 UK pounds bit steep that am looking for alternative suppliers over here at a better price 😁
that bikes seems so small next to you
It is the same next to anyone, Im just a big unit...Thanks for watching mate,Enjoy
Aussie Kawiman How y’all are you
@@WattsUpDev ,About 190-193cm's or around 6'3"-4"AND ABOUT 120KGS,...To big and heavy at the moment...Cheers mate..

I can assure you, there is no cure for that parallel twin sound. No exhaust can cure it.
Mate This bike looks sexy with that h2 style
🇰🇭🇰🇭❤️❤️❤️like..Kawasaki in my dream ..
The bike looks like a 125 compare with the size of the man
But you suit with Harley's giant cruisers 😃😃😃
Not a real fan of HD's, Just love bikes with power and handling mostly..Thanks for watching mate..
I would love to see him on a zx14r
I do have some videos of this,Will get them together,Stay tuned...Thanks for watching...
Sounds quite a bit better than stock imo. Sucks that it's underbelly so you need to do a full system...pretty pricey
Yeah mate i get it, only provides some noise though, would need a PC5 and some tuning to get more power..Thanks for watching mate..
I love it sir🥰😘
Me too....
great bike :D
Thanks mate, It is fun to ride too, Thanks for watching mate..Enjoy
Hello Aussie Kawiman! I was wondering if I could use this video in a Kawasaki z650 exhaust compilation? I will give u both credit and a link to your video in the description.
You sure can Motobeast, Go for it..Thanks for asking first not many peeps do that, Enjoy..
@Aussie Kawiman Thank you! Well I don't think it is okay to take videos that people have spent hours on making without asking for their permission...
@@MrMotorMedia ,All good mate, Send me the link when you have uploaded it. Cheers mate..
Great looking bike, but I personally cant handle the sound of a twin. Thats why I bought the 900
The 900 is soooo much better,but the 650 is a price point pretty good ride, Thanks for watching mate..Enjoy the 900..Cheers..
He make the bike too small... How big is he?
I am 6'4" and 120kg, yes i am a bit big for this bike, But it is too much fun not to ride them...Thanks for watching mate..Enjoy :)
Nice mate.
Thanks mate... Enjoy..
thanks for the video!
i got one question: can i take off the cover for the second seat? or can i only ride it alone?
Thanks for stopping by.. You can take the rear seat off and add a cover that looks pretty cool, In Australia we can register these as a solo rider makes it a bit cheaper. Enjoy. :)
Bike is cool but more interested in your jacket.....maybe you can do a review? Cheers
Cheers mate, The old jacket is a Racer X jacket, Was sold in Australia by McLeod Accessories when i worked for them years ago.Similar to Dri-Rider etc, Is old but fits well. Not waterproof just vented, I really should have a new one but have not got around to it, Thanks for watching mate..Enjoy.
little pro tip ;) next time kill the music in the shop first, makes it easier to understand you ;) thx for the video
Yeah, I realised that after i had put it up, Thanks for watching mate...
Good vid. Hard break in method? You didn't fit the tail tidy im assuming its easier to put the trader plate on as is.
Tail tidy did not get done, Just a cost issue as if we sell it and they don't want it ,it is a fair cost to remove. Break in??

All of Australia for single seat rego, or just Queensland?

Do you have to tune it, after exhaust install?
We did not tune it as it seemed to run ok, I n a perfect world I would get tune but not really necessary.. Thanks for watching mate.Enjoy
@@AussieKawimanquindi installando lo scarico in questione non necessita di rimappatura la centralina?😮

whats your height man ? that bike looks small in front of you.
thanks.

How more lowd is this muffler compared to the Akrapovic road legal with cat and the carbon tip?
Not sure Hugo,It is louder and by a fair bit, i just did not measure the rating...Thanks for watching mate...Enjoy :)
Yeahhhhhhhhhhh
I hear ya Toni...Love it mate....Thanks for watching..Enjoy
So is the full power one available here? Bikesales is only showing the lams version.
Yes you can get one full powered, if not from Kawasaki Aust can de-restrict it for you.Let me know and i can organise it...Thanks for watching...Enjoy
Hello Mate from Greece! Is this the original akrapovic exhaust for Kawasaki? And is it compatible for versys 650 2018 model? Thank you in advance!
Hi George, It should go on the Versys as they have the same engine, Cheers mate, thanks for watching...
Hey mate can the kawi dealer deristrict the bike or do you need to contact a professional tuner. Just asking for a friend 😉
Legally it can not be Deredistricted unless it is taken off the LAMS register,To do this you will need a dealer to do it and have it removed form the register.Once it is removed as a LAMS bike i can never be put back on as a LAMS bike.Or you can buy a full powered version from the dealer..If you are not licensed for an r class bike you will be breaking the law and be void of all insurances.. best not to do it ..
Awesome , i rode this back last year it's way too small for me.
No good mate, What did you end up getting? Is a bit small for me but i am used to that..Thanks for watching, Enjoy..
@@AussieKawiman ☺️
Don't like the sound of the bike with that exhaust but the bike looks good
Cheers mate, Thanks for watching...Enjoy
Is it loudly or sporty sound ?
Is this the full Titanium acro? Debating between carbon fibre and full titanium...
Yep she is the full Titanium, I think the Carbon looks great but over time looks a bit worn, Both sound great though..Good luck mate and thanks for watching...Enjoy
hey there im from sa and would like to know where i can buy the full acro and seat cowel with frame sliders?
sa? Is that South Australia? If so i can get someone to call and organise...thanks for watching mate..
would the z 650 front brake fit er6n 2013
Which part of the brake? The disc? If the disc, I am not 100% sure..Best way would be to compare n the flesh, Good Luck and thanks for watching mate..
How much is the exhaust? Great sound
About $1250 Aussie dollars mate....That is a full system..enjoy
Is this exhaust legal in Germany ?
Not sure but it is not really legal anywhere?? Even here in Australia..Depends on the DB reading..Thanks for watching mate..Enjoy
Asking the important questions! Würde ich auch gerne wissen.
@@OriginalLyricLantern Ja ist erlaubt (S-K6R12-HEGEHT), aber nur mit DB Killer. Außerdem brauchst du den dazugehörigen Katalysator (P-KAT-076).

Friedrich Nietzsche Kein Problem :) Schau mal bei Idealo, sollte so 1050€ kosten ohne den Katalysator.

How tall are you?
193cms or 6'4" and way to heavy to say.. :)
So did I just understand the bike lost performance with the Akrapovic full system exhaust? That's not cool at all :-/

If you don't tune your bike after you put an exhaust on it you lose performance
