2004 Kawasaki Concours review from United States of America
"I love this bike"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Nothing has gone wrong - this bike is totally sound and reliable.
General comments?
This motorcycle has outstanding acceleration for its 600 pound weight. It will out-accelerate any Harley or car that costs less than $100,000. It will easily pull away from any car or truck that tries to harass you on the highway.
It is very comfortable on the highway - air shock makes it very smooth.
It is difficult to maneuver in tight spaces, because it is top heavy, long, and it has very limited handlebar movements.
It has a big windshield and a full fairing, so the wind doesn't hit you at highway speed.
