Kawasaki Other description

 2008 Kawasaki Versys (Versatile System) 650cc "Adventure-Style" motorcycle.

2008 Motorcycle of the Year Award by Motorcyclist Magazine.
2008 Best in Class "Allrounder class" award by Motor Cycle News.

This great middle-weight bike is highly reviewed for its ultra-reliable 650cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine, delivering a great mix of power and torque over a broad RPM range.  It's upright seating position, wide handlebars and triple disc brakes makes for a safe, controllable and comfortable ride.  The 41mm inverted front forks, adjustable monoshock and beautiful aluminum swingarm provide perfect suspension for riding city streets, twisty backroads, or great distances on our nation's Interstate highways.

This low mileage bike was purchased new by a capable and knowledgeable motorcyclist.  He owned a garage filled with fine bikes.  All of them were meticulously maintained.  Sadly, I am listing the bike for his widow.

This bike is very clean, starts, idles, runs, shifts and brakes perfectly.  The battery is full-powered and all lights and electrics work fine.  There is a "Battery Tender" wiring harness installed.
The Pirelli tires are presumably original (IDK) and should be fine for a few thousand more miles.

Included is the pictured luggage rack and removable, locking GIVI storage compartment.  The owner's manual and tool kit is under the seat.

Full-payment by Bank Certified Check or Postal Money Order expected within 10 days of auction completion. 
I will hold the bike with a PayPal deposit of $500, the balance to be paid in advance of or upon pick-up.
I WILL NOT hold the bike in lieu of a full-cash payment upon pick-up. 
I can store the bike securely until your arrangements can be made.
Will sell to Canadian or overseas bidders provided all shipping arrangements are made by buyer and don't cause me too much hassle.
Free enclosed trailer delivery available to the Barber Motorsports AHRMA Vintage Festival in Birmingham AL (October 11-13).

Scorpion silencer for Z800e

Sun, 22 Sep 2013

PERFORMANCE exhaust manufacturer Scorpion has launched a silencer for Kawasaki's Z800e which it says adds 4.9bhp while shaving 5.4kg off weight. The Z800e is Kawasaki's A2-friendly version of the Z800, with claimed power reduced from 111 to 94bhp. A2 licence holders limited to 47bhp can ride a machine which has been restricted but it must not have made more that 94bhp to begin with, making the Z800e eligible.

2013-2014 Kawasaki Ninja 300 Faces More Brake Issues

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

Earlier this year, the Kawasaki Ninja 300 was one of several models impacted by a recall on Nissin anti-lock brake system modulators. The fault for that problem clearly lay with Nissin, as the same issue affected other motorcycles from several manufacturers. The little Ninja might not be out of the wood yet however, as other brake-related issues have come up.
