2003 Kawasaki W650 review from Ireland
"Very good"
What things have gone wrong with the motorcycle?
Nothing.
General comments?
The Japanese copy of a 1960s Triumph Bonneville.
Looks good, rides good.
Economical, 70 m.p.g.
Handled better when I fitted Hagon Shocks.
Braked better when I fitted stainless steel lines and Double-H sintered pads.
