    Kawasaki Z1000 here was p555,000 a few months ago

    The Ninja was p580,000 and apparently the same horsepower as the Z.

    One guy who bought the Z here told me it was 190hp, but that's not the figures I have been seeing online. More like the 138hp already stated.


    That Vulcan has no chrome. Very boring

    My words and the aching arm muscles from supporting your body weight with this low Handelbars because of lack of speed I rather get from stroking some Bodyparts of my wife...

    The 650 kawa I'm referring to has as much go as a 300-400cc bike. It is NOT like the 600cc bikes in the US. That 650 can't even pull the front tire off the ground in first gear without dumping the clutch. The thing has a 450lbs dry weight and less than 80hp.

    Cutie: Kawasaki produces 3 1000 cc bikes in the Philippines. The Z1000, which is a "naked" sport touring bike rated at 138hp. The ZX1000 which is the flared version of Z1000. The 1000cc Ninja is a completely different bike than the Z body style. It is rated at 198hp.

    Simple mind: These kawas here are not a true sports bike (minus the 1000cc ninja). They are sports touring bikes with upright riding positions, no pressure on the wrists and you don't lean forward. You're right on a true sports bike though, they certainly were not designed for comfort. It took me about a month to build up the muscles in my arms and wrists. It actually helps my back though, sitting upright causes me a lot of pain with all the bumps in the road here, leaning forward actually keeps your spine from compressing.

    They had a 650 that was a pretty blue when I was there today still in the wrapper in the service dept.

    No info from them on ordering a KLX250 like the one on display at Robs though.

    The other big bikes were still there. That Vulcan definitely needs some chrome.
