Good Points

Bike that gets you noticed. Is stable and capable of touring, and I have done 200 miles in a day. Will hold motorway speeds if you need to, and is great for a country ride. Is a bike with style and 70s feel but new century reliability


Bad Points

Needs cleaning regularly. Parts need to be sort from Kawasaki dealer(But always available) Luggage space is a problem


General Comments

The Kawasaki W650 is a very good bike, and a bike which can travel with the big boys at a sensible road legal pace. It looks good, but needs some love and care when winter riding due to its silver mudguards and exhaust needing a clean.
A bike which I have been very happy with, and would buy again. It is economical and fast enough for me. I have ridden it from North to South a total of 250 miles in a day, and it has kept up nicely on a motorway, and given me the power to overtake. It is not a good bike for lots of luggage and a pillion passenger would not probably enjoy being on it for 250 miles.
A great bike for local 60 mile ride outs and country runs. Certainly a bike which gets you noticed.
