Kawasaki Ninja 250R

I'm a big fan of Kawasaki's entry-level sport bikes. They're attractive, reliable, punchy, get great gas mileage, and they hold their value quite well. Often, people who ride a Kawasaki Ninja 250R or 500R will hold on to that bike for their spouse or children, as it provides such a stable and reliable way to enter the sport bike world with minimal investment and maximum enjoyment.

Kawasaki Vulcan 900

If you love riding, and you're love of riding extends beyond high-revving fast and furious crotch rockets, then you will find something great in the simplicity of the 2010 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 line-up. All areas of interest are there: for those who love traditionally styled motorcycles, the Classic is a great choice; for those who live on the highway and need a motorcycle that echoes those sentiments, the Classic LT fits the bill nicely; for those who love aggressive styling, big wheels, and a deep throaty sound, the Custom is king.

Regardless of which one you choose, the ride and experience tells the same story.

Kawasaki KLX 300

It's always been known that Honda XR's are pretty much bomb-proof trail bikes. It would seriously take some long and hard abuse to kill one of those things. But in this day and age, the XR is becoming an out-dated piece of machinery compared to the modern high-tech dirt bikes. Kawasaki has been making the liquid-cooled KLX300R trail bike since 1997, but in 2003 it got a nice face-lift. The KLX300 is in the same class as Honda's XR250R, but even with the extra displacement, it will still be hard to beat the air cooled XR.

Kawasaki ZX-14

 

The Kawasaki ZX14 is the ultimate superbike of the future. Kawasaki's strategy for this bike was straightforward, but incredibly demanding. This motorcycle features an inline four cylinder engine that is compact, light, and silent as possible, despite the fact that is has 1,352cc worth of power. The digitally fuel injected and ram air inducted engine is capable of 7,500 rpm, which barely meets European regulations for street bikes.

Kawasaki Concours 14

It's spring and I am in love. New love. Fresh love. The kind of love that makes you giddy.

And the objection of my affection is the 2011 Kawasaki Concours 14. We met last week and hit it off right from the start. Granted I was a little intimidated at first. This Connie gives the appearance of being massive and a bit much to handle, but I was willing to be open-minded.
