The green one shown in the first picture is the model I own and ride for 6,5 years. In Germany it was sold the first 2 years after the W800 entered the market in 2013.
Then Kawasaki always changed colors and outlook of the W, which I don't like that much. The blackend models looks way too much like a rat bike in my eyes, as if someone has sprayed the bike over with cheap mat black, not my style. The Kawa is a very lovely bike and maybe it is the best looking retro bike, but now disappeared from the German market and prices for used ones a still rising, which start round about by 6.000€. Used first CB models are nearly starting in the same price region..... I will keep both.
