Not many new bikes i like. Saw this Kawa today, nice bike. Beautiful colour and quality looked perfect. Dont like front guard much, being a bit picky. Even the rear end looked ok, much better than others. Not much else i could fault. Nice gauges, mono brakes, will book in for a ride.

I tried one a while back but found it very bland, it has no character but it does look good and sounds good as well.

A mates got one .
It's very bland but a caperble bikes .
Tuned to be very economical rather than exciting .
Small tank if you do distances (they say 120+miles from a 16ltr tank but if your "making progress" less than 80miles)
Sold on looks really .

They seem a good all round bike.

My mate bough the "Yellow Ball" limited edition last year as he was finding his Honda VFR a bit heavy as he passed 70.

He seems pleased enough, but only really does days out.
