  1. The Kawasaki bags are horrible for anything beyond light duty in a city.  They soak more water in than a sponge.  The zippers are poor quality.  On the tail bag I had to stop using the one side after a couple weeks.  The stitching pulled away from the bag leaving about a 4 inch hole in the side pouch.  I cut a hole in the bottom of it just to let the water drain out.  The stitching also has let go from the bottom.  Not completely just in a 15 to 20 cm section.  To use it I bought a plastic container that was close to the interior size and with that came a lid.  Clamps and a Rubbermaid container cost 12cdn dollars, are completely waterproof and virtually indestructable.  That tail bag was 140 cdn dollars………do the math.

  4. This bike is much bigger than I thought it would be. Came real close on pulling the trigger today at the dealership. 

  6. Come on guys, fuel gauge, fuel injection….Sure, but then instead of 6800$ you will be paying 10000$.  This is why the bike sells for such a great price, because they eliminated all the little things that you really do not need…Any good rider can gauge his fuel by using the trip odometer….Don’t be so lazy…..For 6500-6800$ new, you get a great bike, you will not find a better deal…

  7. No…the LAST thing they should ever do is put fuel injection on this bike.  The reason why these things do what they can is because they have TREMENDOUS torque…not HP.  As for the fuel gauge, RaDDx1968 is spot on…I use my trip odo always when riding, trail or touring.
    My 2012 looks the same as this one, other than when I got it home from the dealer, I took every single sticker/decal off the entire bike.  I also added the SW-Motech TraX aluminum cases on the rear, as I hate plastic bags.

  8. Replace the engine with the Z800 would be a start. I find my KLR fairly gutless its good on country roads and some mild off road stuff, but compared to the VStrom 650 I had its in need a but of revamp work. 

  9. looks good
    why no engine guard bars as standard i wonder
    another viewer said it has a 35 inch seat height
    no good for me then, not as a 5 foot 6 inches rider
    oh well, i will stick with my 2013 vstrom 650

  11. the dual sport bike scene is so pathetic, hardly any innovative or new models, just same old same old.  Adding more accessories on a bike isn’t innovation.

    DRZ400 – no change since 2000
    WR250R – no change since 2008
    KLX250s – no change since whatever, I forgot, too long ago
    KLX650 – no change since whatever, I forgot, too long ago
    DR650 – no change since whatever, I forgot, too long ago
    XR650L – no change since whatever, I forgot, too long ago
    CRF250L – no change since 2012, a bike that was made for Asian market where owning a 250cc is king of the hill.
    KTM, Bata, Husaberg, Aprilla – expensive, questionable durability, lack dealership for sales and parts.

  12. That’s a really nice looking bike.  But that rear brake cable really bugs me.  they should have designed that caliper so that the cable bolts on from the other side.  Off road I’d be worried it would snag on something.
