Add the Ivan's ECU reflash and this bike is SWEET. Add the Russell Cycle Products Daylong seat and 10 hours of seat time a day is very easily done. Love my 2015!
However the Kawasaki would probably be more reliable and dependable than that of a Harley. It would spend less time in the shop and be hungry for the road.
I love the price point. Okay it’s not a gold wing or a Harley but for the price point it’s great. And the reliability rating is high higher than Harley Davidson.
I just bought one. I have a few disappointments with it but overall its a good bike. It came with a Stereo that has no Bluetooth. The front shroud vibrates. For a 1700 I expected a lot more torque. It is a very comfortable ride though.
Love your videos customers also would be interested in the weight of the bike , m.p.g. fuel tank capacity and distance you can travel on a tank of gas . Just a suggestion .
These bikes are awesome bikes definitely worth the money I advise anyone take a test ride if you have a chance hopefully the 2022 will add LED touch screens
Thanks for posting. I really appreciate the detail review. I am interested in getting one in the near future: looking for a used 2009-2016 year model between $5,000 to $12,000. Saving the cash right now. 🙂
All the lights on this bike should be LED and not analog anymore. Kawasaki needs to catch up to the competition like Honda which have all LED lit bikes with digital gauges and cruise control on the mid and high cc bikes!!!
Had 4 big Harley's they dont compare to this bike or a Yamaha raider i have now drives better than anything and blow a Harley's off the road my friends
I'd rather had a CB. They always work so there are reliable and you can monitor road conditions and accidents or deer sightings in the road from the trucker traffic on the CB.
