2003 Kawasaki EX500 review from United States of America
"This is the best motorcyle to purchase as a novice rider"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
There were no mechanical problems identified with my motorcycle.
General comments?
This is the best money you will spend on a introduction to a sport-bike.
The motorcycle is practically dummy-proof because it has the kickstand shut-off switch.
This motorcycle kept me out of trouble in traffic, rather than creating potential accidents.
