Yeah, those were the days. Did 25 years of decent motorcycling, until I met this bride. No shifting beyond 3. gear went 50km/h up to 180 within a wink of an eye and arms grooowing longer, was my wedding night. Finally left me greyhaired onto a rocking chair. Oh, I miss my Babe, and the other one? Maybe😁
My mum has one, from new. A blue SP. Am used to my Z1000A2 and my dad's ZRX. As much as I like that ZREX, if you are not used to it anymore, you get shocked by the low rpm grunt in comparison to the Kawa - arms growing longer, holy moly!
Have to agree with Paul. Mainstand and fuel gauge, two vital ingredients for any modern bike. Not yet ridden the FJR but used to have the FJ1200 with the same grunty motor.
Sweet looking bike, maybe a little on the thirsty side, but no more than others, even with FI, when it come to bikes in this size class. They get around 35 to 38 mpg, depending on how you ride, that almost goes without saying, and it does by many. lol
I think a bike like this, along with the Suzuki GSX 1400 would be great to holiday on around the UK and into Europe. Should be better on fuel mpg too once on long cruises. As good as this bike is, I'm leaning towards the GSX just now as my next bike.
Had my xjr 1300 for almost 3 years now been a wonderful bike on short and long trips never had a days trouble with it I've just bought a second low mileage 1 I'd recommend anyone buy a xjr
I loved mine but it tended to eat front tyres if you threw it around a lot, and it bottomed out quite easily with just molded blobs on the pegs that wore away.
Me watching every motorcycle review ever.
“This would be the perfect bike for me”
LOL i thought i was the only one haha

Anyone see that drunk driver in the white car around 4:06
"it isn"t too big for me" ..... meanwhile his feet barely touch the ground :)
The 2001 Kenny Robert’s is still my daily rider 22 years down the track and it’s still going strong.
Still miss my 2000 bought new back in the day. Klaus Goerz airbox and ignition mod, Dyno jet and Devil Cup exhaust gave 130 hp on the rear wheel... 😀

Looks like Honda, Suzuki & Yamaha took the same bike & painted it different.
Hence the term UJM.
Not actually true but understandable.

i just found a 2001 model with 29 k miles on it .. looks mint .. so tempted :D
Great bikes but their fuel economy was rubbish. Often having to switch to reserve after 180k.
La he conducido y es un demonio...
Nossa muito linda essa moto
Spot on review. Harsh and unpleasant on the motorway, but a dream on the A and B roads.

I just bought one for my dad
Nice looking bike, I'd have one.
“Shower” suspension… 🤦

One dream of motorcycle.

Отличный мапет
Brutish bikes heavy wallow ...but evil
Haha...almost fall off it getting on...go shorty!
Luckily he's a bit heavy, so he compresses the suspension a lot, therefor coming closer to the ground!😎😎🤣🤣
