another nice looking retro - the Ferret - 11-14-2024

412 pounds? How did they do that?
That's like 85 pounds less than my NC 750. Doesn't seem possible. Maybe it's a typo

That is a tight-looking bike, very inviting. I'd like to see more water-cooled bikes play with the Triumph radiator look that goes long and narrow following the down-tube lines, instead of so wide as on this bike and others, but still, nice overall.
The Kawasaki website does say 412.3 wet / 387 dry, so sounds fun.

That seems crazy lightweight for that bike, probably would be quiet a blast to ride

My 2013 V7R 750 Moto Guzzi tips the scale ( I verified it ) at 395 dry. However, it’s not putting out the power the Kawi is.

or the NC 750X @ 58 HP ... but the 2025 V7 is supposed to be putting out 67 hp. That's quite a jump from the 51 of the 2013 MG V7
67 hp, shaft drive and 5 1/2 gallon tank ..thats a great combo.... although for 2025 they are listing the weight at 491.6 # wet

I do like that Z650RS and have sat on one in the showroom. It's on my list of "If I had room for more" bikes.

Everything was ready except for my white bike, which I didn't remove the SWMotech side racks from... and for the same reason I didn't sell it this spring... lazy
Perhaps will finalize in spring??
