There's only one thing I don't like about this Kawi (and the Versys, as I prefer the faired version): the number of cylinders. An in-line four would do the trick, but a 650 triple would be pretty cool too.This thing looks pretty badass....
The gauge cluster looks nice, but digital tach and analog speedo? I think they got it very backwards. I think analog tach with digital speedo is the best / most functional combo. My car and FZ both have this setup.
Wolf,I have ridden an '07 version of this bike (Orange,you would like it ,lol)and it has got a lot of useable power and being a twin it comes on quick too :thumbup:I like the look of this bike, just wish it had a motor with a bit more "go"
:thumbup:
I am presuming it would have a bit more torque than the FZ6 motor, but i bet i doesnt have that kick at 8000rpm that the fz has, that i just revelled in, when overtaking trucks and cars on my recent trip to Victoria.Wolf,I have ridden an '07 version of this bike (Orange,you would like it ,lol)and it has got a lot of useable power and being a twin it comes on quick too :thumbup:
Sounds like a great city bike, and back road blaster...was surprised at how well the fz coped with a pillion & gear, it just powered through it...front was a bit flighty though.Correct,not a highway machine,but way cool in the twisties and around town .
