1991 Kawasaki reviews

I bought it for my wife due to the very low seat height but comfortable riding position for taller people (and I'm over 6'). I find myself using it to commute to work ever since I sold my '78 KZ650. Can't beat almost 60 mpg riding around town. Obviously due to the small displacement it's not the best bike for long-distance highway driving (requires over 7000 rpm @ 70 mph) but trips under a 100 miles are no problem. Not much of a market for the really small displacement street bikes I guess, as I've never seen another one on the road. Highly recommended for beginners or smaller-statured people It's affordable and has way better performance than the 250 Rebel. Show less

Kawasaki has always been at the forefront of pure muscle fun on the street or the track. This machine is no exception and lives up to its racing name. Some glitches however plague the bike. One is the transmission. 2nd gear is wonky and works a 1/3 of the time. Off idle stalls are very common due to a lean carb circuit. Other than that the machine is rock solid and allot of fun to ride.
