Ducati every time. My V4 Panigale makes me feel “special” every time I ride it despite being an average rider. I have owned numerous Kawasaki’s in the past and while they have been lovely bikes they lack that feeling of exclusiveness.
And what they lack in so called 'exclusiveness' they make up for with stone cold reliability.
I make the kawasaki "feel" special.
Needing a brand to make you feel special is sad
@@HarrisBinUAE lol
@@HarrisBinUAE oh c’mon fella it’s what sells the things!😂
I mean this isn't really a fair comparison. If you were gonna compare these two, the ZX10RR would have been a fairer comparison.
Would go green! Mean looking kawa and great bang for Buck. Top build quality as well.
yes very true, well build and lack nothing, bulletproof and also looks gud
The best looking ZX10R ever!
i remember on your website where you specified that one guy in Vietnam robbed a bank and bought a ZX10R hahaha
It was hilarious
I remember that lol
😂 he took matters in his own hands
As a person who lives and breathe zx10r(2005 2007 2021). I would like to know why is this $17000 motorcycle always compared against other more costly motorcycles. I feel these bikes are totally more track competitive focused when the zx10r is a fast street ready. Like why is the zx10r not compared against the cbr1000rr instead of the $30000 track focus cbr1000rrr SP. It's the R1M instead of the R1. Look at it like this if this cheap bike could beat the more expensive bikes a lot of companies would go under. Plus I feel the European bikes are am playing by different rules. The zx10r is restricted in ways these bikes are not
Simple reflash on these zx10rs and that's it lol
@@jponz85 I have had to do more then flash. I ride with s1000rr and Ducati Aprilla. The long gearing on the ninja makes them pretty much lose from the start. Once the power kick in then its catch up. The new 10r takes off slightly harder then my other 10s but it also falls off around 11k rpms.
@@antwms8267 yeah unfortunately these zx10r even the zx6r suck at low end tq.
@@jponz85 plus 1103cc how do they come close to comparing
@@antwms8267 would a - 1 +2 sprocket not help with the low end?
I'll alway remember the Covid years as the period when Visor Down rehashed individual bike reviews and unashamedly posed them as genuine "comparison" and "versus" videos interpreted by Toad's retelling of his collective memory of riding the bikes months apart. This might work for FB's content hungry nature that requires spinning new content all the time. But comparison videos should more sincere and feature actual head to head trials and footage. It was understandable in 2020, somewhat acceptable in 2021, but really appalling in 2022.
Agreed.
The headline doesn't actually say "comparison" or "shoot out"; it says "versus" and I think that was a deliberate choice of words. Apart from that you do have a point, I guess it's the nature of the beast, but perhaps it's a bit too easy to sit behind ones computer and complain about the free stuff you're given ...
I like the 750's from 88-92. Some beautiful game changers that really require your input. Love the series VMV.
Great sensible review from Visordown as always , pros of both and target audience well discussed.
I love Zx10r 🔥💚💯
woooooooooow ! ! ! ! ! ! awesome video ! ! ! ! ! amazing ! ! ! ! fasntastic ! ! ! ! ! i enjoyed it ! ! ! ! ! !
Kawasaki is a legend 💚🖤
Awesome video. Greetings from a Brazilian subscriber.
Thank you very much! 🇧🇷
Kwacker for life...
Interesting vid, visor. Ride safe, god bless u.
Thanks!
Kawasaki 💚
Amazing video
I’m for team green but the new 10r needs more spicy Kawasaki power…
That’s why you look at the 10rr.
Let's be honest, the ducati is like driving a 488 pista, its amazing and fast and you have the sclusivity of riding a Ferrari . A car that provides you unique experience unlike any other car, the kawasaki is like driving a nissan gtr, its also fast and efficient. But its still a good old boring nissan.
V4 sbk titles 0 zx-10r 7 .
You might want to expand your view to the beginning of WSBK racing until now; Ducati has done just fine over the years.
V4s 100% of the time for me
Great comparison video! I’d pay the extra for the Ducati if I could because it’s a truly special and stunning to look at motorcycle.
Fair enough!
just depends on what one likes
Most important cog ⚙️ in this , is the rider.. that cog can change everything
That's right. Jonny Rea could be riding a scooter and do well.
Right when I decide the v2 is all I need, now the v4 has a mode that essentially makes it a v2. Now what? For 95% time on the road, which is better?
V4 has street mode since it was made in '18
Zx10r
Can't compare them, but would go team green just service cost alone
In between V2 and zx10r I never hesitated but V4sp❤
Kawasaki zx 10 r .16k bike 7 k investment 22k in total big bore cams 225 hp to rear monster .guarantee I will bit anything u trough at me .still cheap then v4 and way faster .right set up thar all u need
Kawasaki 👌🏿👌🏿
Beauty?.. have you not looked at the older models?
My 2023 ZX-10 RR is an absolute masterpiece of sport bike handling, I have never been able to ride this confident at high speeds, sweepers i did st 125-mph, iam now doing at 155-mph on the ZX-10-RR, never got the confidence on the Fireblade RRR-SP, something didn’t feel right!!! Thank goodness for Kawasaki!!! What an absolute weapon after the ECU flash and full Akro WSBK exhaust install!!! Ducati and the $10,000 exhaust gets old fast
You went from the RRR to zx10rr what all have you done to the 10
Try riding a Hayabusa I'm literally sleeping doing 160 now that bike stable at high speeds.
Which one has won the world superbike championship most time the zx10r or the panagali nuff said
I live in past .22 23 v4r all way .one they restrict rmp on zx 10 r it became lifeless 😅
Started on zx6r, cool bike but everyone had one… Sold that after i fell in love with Italians - 2020 Aprilia RSV4 1100 Factory; 2021 Ducati Panigale V4s!
I’ve had one minor thing pop up with the aprilia and that was a loose radiator hose clamp. That’s it. I’ve got 16K+ miles on the aprilia in 8 months and 7K miles on ducati 5 months ownership.
These bikes are beautiful and reliable. There’s no such thing as a perfect bike. Any manufacturer will have its problems.
Pick what you want and dream about and buy it. You have one life. Full send. :)
Which bike looks more bigger pls reply❤️
H2
Good watch but the price difference between these two is massive. I’m not even sure they are targeting the same audience at all. What’s the difference in the uk? Close to £10,000 ? £25k v £15k ? I know you mentioned it.
The standard v4 seems a closer match and even then it’s still £5,000 more expensive. I think if money was no object everyone would take the Ducati for the v4 engine and the looks. Apart from those people who still think Ducati is unreliable. Not knocking the video. Just thinking out loud.
Does Kawasaki still offer an "RR" version of the ZX-10 like they did a couple of years ago? You know, the one without all the garish decals and some homologation bits for racing? That price was much closer to the fancy Ducati V4.
@@rlsedition yeah it’s the zx10rr its around £25k in the uk.
@@theonlyredspecial It seems to me that RR would compete against the V4R Ducati and the standard Ducati Panigale V4 would go up against this ZX-10R rather than the V4S.
This comparison was unfair. You need to do the base V4 if you are comparing them. I think the Zx10rr should have been the comparison to the V4s their are both around the same price of $30k +
Not even base v4 incomparable to zx 10 rr it base v4 is lighter the v4s 196hp out box .30k after tax for base v4 2023 I know I got has more torque the zx 10 r and rr .so it fair competition. Zx 10 r vs r1 or suzuki gsxr. V4 vs bmw m1000 rr is fair competition even then ducati has more hp and torque then bmw ducati it all around homicidal bike 😂
1103cc vs 998cc 😂😂😂
i would still pick the zx10r...
V4R is 998cc. Still the kawi can't compare and all of them are crying in the wsbk not able to compete with the Ducati.
@@foodmaniac9339 nah its just the natural flow of the competition.. sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. sometimes you win 7 straight wsbk champ sometimes you lose 7 straight years..
😂😂😂😂
Imagine an 11year old engine design made a whole manufacturer bite the bullet and use their previous motogp bike design as the platform... Personally i love the zx10r engine, easy to tune and easy to build but he panigale V4 is the new bike to beat and the best there is in the market right now...
@@juliuscarlopoblete2092 Ducati is asserting dominance in all categories. But ridiculing a brand is ironic on your part where Kawasaki has never been successful in any areas apart from wsbk.
@@foodmaniac9339 nah, but you see lots of zx10r in races.. and less ducati...
That's the clear impression of their product is doin well and translating sales... Success is not just about winning races in wsbk and motogp..
its also about having the highest sales...
@@juliuscarlopoblete2092 it's because Ducati is a ultra premium product and doesn't want to let down their value. Would you think people don't buy Ducati when it's price is similar to Jap bikes. So you are wrong.
Which is why Kawasaki will be selling more bikes ...
With almost 10 000£ less, who would say...?
Panigale, of course.
Ducati forever❤❤❤
Kawasaki Team Green Forever 😎 👍
I like how yall skirted all of the actual testing and just talked about generalities.
Just kidding
💚🔥💚🤗
it doesnt matter what under the hood . what matters is who behind the wheel
>Kawasaki +1
It has more power ducati than 10r but zx10r looks beautiful and great
V4s aim ❤
i only wished 10R retained the old tachometer
Nice simple and very informative test review guys👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I would pick the Ducati all day long over the Kawasaki. Looks, performance handling, the Ducati has it 10 fold and just has to be awesome for those track days. ZX10R may have many good points, but in the looks department it missed the magic wand, it is butt ugly and am I wrong in saying it looks heavier too.
@pedo isn't a sin, i love all little bois and girls I feel for you👍🏻 You have no taste and most likely have no bike too
kawasaki " may have many good points " to me is the other way around, ducati may have many good point, but in the real world the ZX10RR has a better performance in every single track if you take a look at the result of WSBK
@@goreman1976 yeah but wsbk bikes and road going version are almost like chalk n cheese. Worlds apart in many ways
If anything you can't do on a zx10 or even an old "underpowered" fireblade it's your fault. With that extra 10-15 hps and better looks you are not gonna be any faster on track let alone winning races. Maybe it satisfies your ego that's it.
And i guess the panigale is faster in pretty much every gear...
hampion Showdown
You can almost buy a brand new ZX-6R with the price difference between these 2…..
ducati: 215hp, 122nm torque
Ducati……blisters included.
V4 24/7
Kawa declare 203 HP.
I dont know where they are, it doesn't feel like a 200hp motorbike
213 with ram intake
@@baadshahkichcha2018 now, after the ECU flashI made to myone, It reaches 201.8 HP in the wheel. And It really feels like that. 👌🏼
@@ergorydecueto 🤯 wow
Btw have a question, which is better inline 4 or v4.
People say inline to be character less and power less. Is it true ??
I would say that both of them have their pros and cons. Could be V4 more powerfull than in line? Might be, i dont know. What I think Is true Is that V4 Is more exclusive, and the sound It makes Is amazing. Only comparable with the Yamaha crossplane (wich still Is inline engine)...
200hp engine .not hp to the rare wheel though
duca ee duca eee duca ee
Should be the H2
Not designed to go around corners.
Japanese bikes haven’t been a direct competitor against European bikes for the last few years. Ducati, Aprilia, BMW all eat Kawasaki’s lunch. The only thing Kawa has going for themselves is price.
Thanks for the laugh! Just what I needed to start my day.
@@GPz84 A Ninja ZX-10RR costs the same as a Panigale V4S. Which would you pick? Lol
@@VeriStrawberi no its not. Zx10 is cheaper
I like all brands of bikes and design. But i will pick Kawasaki over all the brands you mentioned in your reply. Just cause reliability. 👌🏼
@@JesusIsLord7773 Ok technically the V4S is $994 more expensive than the ZX-10rr at $28,999 compared to $29,995.
But whatever that’s practically the same price
If you want a bike like everyone else has, get a green. If you want to go your own way, go 🇮🇹. To me there’s no comparison
If you love visiting a mechanic, go Italian.
@@GPz84 I’ve owned a Japanese bikes and an Italian bike… that’s why I say it. Don’t get offended and in your feelings about my opinion
@@Buildingexcellence11 Good for you buds. Guess what? I've owned both as well . Italian bikes are unreliable, over priced shit.
Buy Japanese...Only pay once.
Buy Italian....Never stop paying,
@Concours Chef I don’t think you understand how much bikes have evolved. Italian bikes are wildly more reliable than they were in past years and the Panigale in specific has had less problems than the R1 in the past few years. Granted both are still great bikes, it really comes down to personal preference.
@@GPz84 Not true anymore.
Ducati forever ❤️
They Spawned the English language and yet seem to fuck it up along the way. Where in the word, KAWASAKI, IS THERE A “Z”!!!!!
Front Cowl for the Kawasaki is Horrid.
Why do they always do this?
Most Japanese bikes are strangely ugly. Especially for Europeans. I can imagine though if I were to live in Japan this style would fit right in. It would help if they had painted the front light area black though not keep it in green.
It’s grown on me, and now I love it - looks bloody angry!
@@Bumbaclot213 it's a wonderful machine
I'm just going off of all of Kawasaki's litre bikes over the years. That 2005 zx10 was a beast!!
@@10secondsrule I found Ducati extremely boring looking 🥱 I like Kawasaki look much more.
Easy, one is a shit bike, one is not.
Why they make kawasaki so ugly??? It look like some Lego model 🤔
Lol it’s not even a comparison. The V4 takes it by a long way
Ducati is faster than Kawasaki,Honda and Yamaha
