Haven't seen any posts regarding that bike.

Looks interesting.

It's a twin, but the engine is taken from the Ninja 650, which I owned for a while and that engine was a great little performer! It would purr nicely at low revs and come alive after 6,000 rpm. Very easy to deal with, no power surge or blurp while revving up. Very fuel efficient as well.

So, even if 650 seems a bit underpower, I can vouch for the zippiness and power of that little 650 being more than a match for the 865 in my America...

The most interesting thing is their "Ergo-Fit" system. You can get 3 different saddles (of different height), 2 different length of handlebars and.... the front controls have 3 different position they can be set at. That last one is a biggie, and I wonder why it's not available on the models from other companies... in 2015!

They also offer ABS, and the price is right.

I'm ok with the looks and I like the size, having seen and sat on one last week.

I think Kawa might get a lot of new riders with that one, and even older ones wanting a good little cruiser to get back in the saddle, or adding to their stable.
