Very comfortable, Reliable and plenty of power to cruise at highway speeds.I\'ve put 5000miles on mine in the first year just chain maintenance and oil changes and the bike will run forever.It has lots of low end torque so off the line this bike moves but if you cruising at 70 mph mostly any other parallel twin naked bike will leave you in the dust.But that fine with me this bake checks all the boxes and it looks good as well for the price.
Most reliable cruiser.Solid, High quality frame and parts as expected from kawasaki.Having a forward placed parallel twin engine, There is minimum heat felt around the thighs giving it more advantage over the popular v twin engine cruisers.Also parallel twin reduces the vibration of the vehicle, Elongating the life of all the parts.Engine mapping could have been improved as it is still sporty like the other models of kawasaki fitting with the same 650cc engine.The bike always seems to be in an accelerated mode and never seems to settle down at cruising speeds between 100 to 125 kmps.Having listed the pros here are few cons too: poor ground clearance due to bulky catalytic converter and long wheel base.Uninteresting exhaust note.Expensive spare parts.In my opinion: the most practical and reliable cruiser that is available in india at the moment if it is within the buyer\'s budget.
It's an incredible cruiser machine with a design and engineering that connects with your soul. The precision and ease of riding bring sheer joy, whether in the city or on the highway. The switchgear is top-notch, offering a great feel and rider's delight. The proven 650cc twin engine is constantly updated for performance.

I am bit dissapointed for the ground clearnce. Its very low and usually crashes on steep speed breakers and even on road...read more damages. You need to slow down to about 10km/h for many of the speed vreakers. Aditionally as compated to sports bikes this bike is not good in shock absorption. The bike may feel heavy in traffic when bike will be running at nearly 10kmph. But after few months it gets really easy to ride it in traffic.Aditionally as to turning circumference of bike is really high (as always in chopper-cruiser bikes) it may give you difficulties in turning more than 90 degrees in the traffic.I will add one more thing here as the seat height is low, the control and balancing never gives any issue. But at the low speeds, rider's legs can feel heat from the engine.

Need to be extra cautious in traffic specially if you are on the first gear

It's 130 mm and low. Scraping is guaranteed at Speed bumps if you aren't too careful.
