There's definite enjoyment to be had ragging the balls off an underpowered engine rather than being careful with a powerful one.

It looks just like the CBR 125 i reckon got sporty looks and then this upright seating position and not particulary large tyres however it is what it is and seems like it could be a very good success for kawasaki i think... Suzuki need to have an inbetween sensible bike lol!

Bit like riding an SV then!!

I saw one last week at some traffic lights on the A406 in london. Looked really good.

I'd have one as a commuting tool for london, definatly

Yeah. Riding a SS bike it's too easy to go fast, messing around with tuned 160bhp+ stuff it's like open the throttle... whoa warp speed mr sulu. Arms out of sockets by windblast as of course all proper bikes are naked. Fun, but not too rewarding. Point and squirt is easy with 100bhp supersport bike. With the SV you need to hold a little corner speed to make progress


It's all a personal thing, but it's what you find rewarding. So there's an RD400 on its way to me

Not as fast as a power ranger bike, but which is more fun

Yep its what you like, i love the rush of power, and the insane warp speed with little effort. Ill throw you my keys one day and let you try it for size

Not me - sooner go for somthing like a DRz or XR400 - too lazy for stratosphere RPM.

I sat on one at Kawasaki day at the ace.
It was a bit wider than i expected, I liked it. I imagine it's great round the city, nice for filtering. It's fun riding a less powerful bike as well - as people have said you get to test its limits which you can't necessarliy do on your average road with a 600 (without risking your licence )
