    By  (I am an Owner) on Jun 19, 2013

    I have the 2012 Ninja 650 sport. Plenty of get up n go for the streets.

    These are higher maintenance bikes.

    If u run them fairly hard u'll eat tires n chains/sprockets.

    Also valve adj. need to be done every 7500-10,000 miles with plugs changed out.

    I like the bike, but ...

    Honda = Better quality.

This bike will keep you suprised ...
