Are you a Kawasaki kinda guy?
wibornz:
Started on a Kaw 50 trail bike, then a KD100, kx125, kx500, ZX10 and currently have KLR650, C14, and a Versys. I have owned many other bikes, but just seem to alway be looking at the Kawasaki brand.
I have had some hondas, yamas, and zuki I just seam to get rid of them and migrate back to the mean grean.
So are you a Kaw guy? What have you owned and why did you like it?

For many years Kaw was my only choice. First street bike was a KZ 750 twin followed by an '81 honda Wing. Good bike but ...... Then in '89 I bought my first new bike - a Connie followed by a new '95 Concours. Then in '02 I bought a new Voyager ( over a great deal on an 1800 Wing ). Very nice bike but we never really gelled. In '04 I was looking for something a little more exciting but the Connie was getting real long in the tooth by then and I started looking at a Tiger and went that route.
Always have a soft spot for Kawasakis and would never consider any other Japanese brand if I decide to go there again.

My first real street bike was a Kawasaki and I have owned 6 of them since then, one being the ZRX1200R which I regret selling to this day. :(

Not me. I'm a "whatever gives me wood and makes me giggle" kinda guy. I've owned Suzuki, Honda, and Kawasaki. I'd buy any of those brands again. The only big four I haven't had yet is a Yamaha. I will say I've owned 2 ZX-14's (lost one due to a red light runner) and that neither has ever failed to give me wood and make me giggle...and if something should happen to my current ZX-14 I'd buy another...so maybe I'm turning into a Kawi guy LOL!

My father was a Suzuki dealer in the late 60's and that's where his loyalties have generally been, and mine followed. My first bike was a Suzuki Trailhopper 50. However, after he sold the delaership, his motorcycle connections went Yamaha so that's what the next few bikes were, except for one Honda XR100 (complete POS). When I graduated to street bikes I went back to Suzuki with a GSXR750, Intruder 1400, Katana 750 then I took a break from motorcycles for a few years. When I came to my senses again, I started back out with a Marauder 800. Then I had a Kawasaki Drifter 1500 (short lived cruiser kick), then a DL1000 V'Strom. I lost my mind and bought a Buell XB12X (holeeee crap! Won't make that mistake again!). Now I have a Kawasaki Concour 1400. I looked at lots of different bikes and the C-14 just seemed to fit me better and I liked the features and bang for the buck.
