Great Bike

This bike is great for the track and spirited riding. Not so much for commuting and riding around NYC. Very sleek looking. Not as torquey as the 650r or other twins. Its a great second bike. Not really meant for beginners. Read Full Review

Hot Bike

It's the best bike I've been on in my 40 years of riding. I have my 06 Nomad for me and the wife and it's hopped up a tad and no slouch. I got this bad boy for me. I've added a lot of comfort and protection for it but performance wise I've put a K&N air filter, Dynojet PCIII, Healtech X-TRE, Yos...himura Full Race Exhaust and -1 tooth down on the front sprocket and +2 up on the rear sprocket. A very popular combination for these bikes and had it Dyno tuned by a race shop. It came with a little over 97 horse power and you install a jumper on the ECU that gives you 5 HP right off then all of the other add ons I've got it up to 114.4 HP and with that gear combo she is a wild cat to ride. Less than 10 second 1/4 mile at 135 MPH. It eats new Corvettes. I love it. Lay out flat and whack the throttle, Hold on for your life. Read Full Review

Great Bike!

I test drove one of these and couldn't get the thing off of my mind, so i finally traded in my suzuki sv600 for this bike and i couldn't be happier, this thing rode like a dream!! was so light and nimble compared to the sv. it just fit me like a glove and i can't stop riding it. ive had a kawi 250..., 650, 750 and 600. and a sv 600 and this bike is by far the best of all my bikes!!

Power, Performance and Looks...What more do you need?

I've hit Cali canyons, Midway tracks, freeways and local communiter roadways and get the same adrenaline charge each and every time. This has to be Kawasaki's pride and joy because it does it for me. Other look at the 600cc with their 'busa muscle and are stun when I crack that throttle and climb ...up and over them. Love the thrill of it all. Pop up from a stand still, brake over the handle bars and it will entertain you and those spectators who stare in awe. Handling? Forget it, no one can hang with it and you're king of the corners whenever you get on and go. '07, '08 designers should be proud. Thanks for the engineering for it truly inspires all your competitors to meet the high bar you've already set. Looking forward to the '09. Respectfully submitted, Airborne Read Full Review
