I can tell you're a good rider, on that 650 you'd probably keep up with anything on the road. Great review

Thank you and I appreciate you watching.

Semper Fi Marine! Great video and agree with below comment, you seem like an accomplished rider. Well done! Wanted to ask if the "buzziness" could be felt, in particular, in the right foot peg. For whatever reason, I do feel the vibration a bit more in that right peg, especially at 5k RPM and above (sustained hwy speeds). 9 hrs on the bike is not something I feel I could endure at 57. I'd need a break after an hour+. Great review!

Thanks so much for watching and commenting. Semper Fi! In my experience, the buzziness was pretty even throughout the bike. Not really more or less on any side. I think its buzzy all around above 5 or 6k rpm.

the jerk is a kawasaki restriction. When you are off throttle the bike cuts fuel. A reason why I plan to get mine flashed to get rid of the restriction. I bought mine for a daily because it is a sport touring bike. That is the reason for the soft seat and suspension .

@@sekinchance5186 Yeah, it's def very on/off. Prob one of the worst I've seen. And very mushy suspension. But for the price, it's a good bike.

Thing needs a yoshi fender eliminator and exhaust.

[@rsv4pilot114]

I agree. The owner just installed a tst industries fender eliminator kit. The exhaust is coming soon.

Nice video. I own this bike, bought new ... now around 10k miles.

[@rsv4pilot114]

Very cool. How do you like it? What are your thoughts on it?

[@EJ-ye7wg]

I think your buddy’s bike is raggedy. I hope I get to see you ride one from the dealer (new).

[@rsv4pilot114]

@@EJ-ye7wg not sure why you think that. The bike is new. Had under 1000mi when I made the video and the bike is stock. So not sure why you would think that.

[@rsv4pilot114]

Oh man. Lol. I just noticed that. Thats hilarious. Thanks for pointing that out.

[@EJ-ye7wg]

Is this about the 650 or a comparison with your Aprilia? Jesus 🤷‍♂️
