really good motorbyke, never powerless, climb easely, you fill the power when you open the throtle, average 6,1 liter per 100 km, at geginning 5,3 liter per 100 km, may be because I was ruinning the motor at 140 km/H per 205 km. usely I ride it at 120 km/h. what's true hard hot start, but not soon, wait 5 minutes.

One bike for all uses. Fun on-road, capable off road if only a litte heavy. Motorway speeds ok all day with a best top speed of around 100mph. Watch for rear shock problems allowing the tyre to hit the underside mudguard and damage the cdi unit behind it. The battery has to be in excellent order to start the engine in winter. Used parts are rare but new items can be obtained from most Kawasaki dealers and don't seem to be too expensive. Insurance is cheap. The bike is easy to work on. Best smiles per hour bike I've owned so far.

I've not long had this bike and think it's great, could use a little tickling up although it does have a fair bit of sting any suggestions??

I have had and raced this bike in the deserts of the southwest for 6 years. Great bike with a few modifications.
Supertrap pipe/Jetting and removing air snorkel brings it alive. Rear shock a bit pogoeee. Excellent on road, but to fat for off road and the shock loses all sense of purpose. the low mid tourque is a delight. to improve this bike it would need to lose weight.
fantastic low/mid range power,but top end power feels very asthmatic.(produro pipe @ 155 main jet fitted)handles like a dream on twisty roads
