@a3519 good point, but I’m sure there’s after market centre stands, I wouldn’t stop myself from buying this beast just because of that! What a bike Kawasaki, what a bike!
Kind of hard to make a true review with the Kawasaki rep right beside you.
ABS on an adventure bike with no off switch? Wow… Soon to be released in the US and I’ve been hoping for something a bit more road worthy than my 09 KLR to keep up with the guys I ride with mostly on big GS’s or KTMs. We do enough off road that this could be an issue. Being a diehard Kawi man and not crazy about the monster weights of a GS. Thought I might add one of these to my stable for longer trips but we always seem to end up on a nasty single tracks in the western US. ABS needs an off…
As much as i love Kawasaki.. i have one Kawi btw. It’s a capable sports tourer. the tons of review i see on youtube and read from websites.. It has limited off road capabilities :(. i give you 2 examples. The Low and Exposed underbelly and the low exhaust limits it’s water capabilities( crossing rivers , streams etc).
ow 🙂 can i see the moment where you use centre stand i that moto? 😀
this is not really made for off road , think of it as a commuter / tourer , that is a choice for folks that want comfort for distance but dont want a cruiser and can still have fun in the twisty bits.
stop talking pencilnecks and RIDE IT….!
Older machine, but rides with a lot of fun
