Now THAT is a very beautiful motorcycle.

That's gorgeous. Well played Kawasaki.
A true classic but with some serious mid-weight "true-retro" competition: Moto Guzzi's V7, Triumph's Street Twin & Bonneville series, and of course the one that beats them all: Royal Enfield's Int650 which sells (in Canada) for more than CA$ 4,000 less (= 62%) ...
Then again: what a wonderful luxury to have so many beautiful models to choose from!
P.S. One could also buy 2 or 3 Super Cub's 125 for the same money! That is if you live in any country but Canada where it is not available. Honda's slogan for this bike: "The world's favorite bike" (except Canada).

That is a nice looking bike.
Handsome looking classic bike for sure.
Only 46 lbs lighter then our CB1100....that would be my cons when getting older...and maybe hard to get a rear, 18" tire???
