This bike really does it all. It's a blast on twisty back roads, it's easy to live with as a daily commuter, and it eats up highway miles when you're loading it up for a trip. The upright, neutral riding position means you're not beat up after a long day in the saddle, whether that's a quick commute or a 500 mile stretch. With the 5.5 gallon tank and mid 40's mpg when riding it sane, you're looking at well over 200 miles of range between fill-ups.

I've had it a little over 4 years and put about 12,000 miles on it, including a couple 2,500 mile road trips. It's been garage kept and never laid down. I'm a bit obsessive about maintenance, oil gets changed every 3,000 miles max, always Mobil 1 full synthetic with OEM Kawasaki filters. These motors are known to run well past 100k miles with normal upkeep, so there's a ton of life left in this one. It's still my daily rider until it sells, so the mileage listed will tick up slightly.
