Is the lack of riding modes and traction control on the Z500 enough to make it any less appealing than its more tech heavy rivals?
In a time when even entry level bikes are being fitted with multiple riding modes and advanced electronics, the Z500’s more basic setup has been a topic of debate. However, some riders like the back to basics approach, saying it gives a purer riding experience and keeps the costs down. Some think the absence of electronic aids gives the Z500 an advantage over rivals with traction control, riding modes and more sophisticated ABS systems. They’re a discussion point about whether these electronic aids are really needed on a bike of this size and power output, or if they are simply marketing gimmicks rather than genuinely useful safety aids. It's something that often comes up in the debate over the learning experience for newer riders: Some say that the absence of electronic aids forces better skill development, while others say they're a valuable safety net for those still learning.
I don’t honestly miss the extra tech. The Z500 has enough power to be fun, but not so enough that you really need traction control. Just riding is refreshing.
