Comments from the seller
This Kawasaki is an excellent sports tourer, but I think I'm getting too old for my beloved motorcycle. It does everything its supposed to do: fast, comfortable (up to a point!), great handling, great brakes (with ABS, of course), 2 ride modes and 3 traction-control settings, practical and competent, with a decent tank size, and good fuel economy.
Unfortunately, the bike suffered a garage-fall and has a couple of scars on the LHS; engine casing and swingarm.
I am the second owner of this bike; purchased from Spreyton Motorcycles 25/5/22, (34,914kms) and have enjoyed several years of trouble-free ownership; quite possibly the best motorcycle of my 60 years of motorcycling (although that's a big call!)
* Aftermarket cans for a throatier note (although not too noisy);
* Ventura pannier rack, including a sports-pack, and 2 R-jays soft panniers;
* New chain and sprockets at 36,186kms;
* Major service 5/8/25 (documented);
* New Michelin Pilot 6 9/7/22, @ 35021kms;
* New front brake pads 18/10/22 (36,084kms)
* New Michelin Pilot 6 February 2026 (44,423kms).
Standard mufflers and bits & pieces provided.
