W650 ! Cool bike. My penchant for Brit bikes makes this Kaw a real favorite. All the pleasantries of a Bonneville with none of the vices. Go take a ride for me.

Have had a few. Got creamed by a tow truck which broke my Honda CB750F Super Sport in half!
Currently 3x Kawasaki. ZR-7S street. KLR 250 Enduro. KE 100 Enduro, cool street legal oil-injected 2-stroke. I believe it was the last street legal two-stroke sold in the US.
Previously '73 CB500K 4-cyl, '85 V65 Sabre 1100, Yamaha YZ490, back when Yama-Hammer dirt bikes were black & yellow.

Ring ding ding pop pop, ring ding ding pop pop! Two strokes wake up great old memories for me.
I picked up an abandoned '82 Suzuki GR650 from craigslist last summer. Top end gaskets, tires, battery and a Polaris regulator/rectifier got her road ready after the usual carb cleaning and tank flush. I hadn't ridden in 6 years since my stroke. It turns out I can still ride as long as I behave myself and ride like the old man I am. The somewhat rare GR650 vertical twin is what Triumph should have made. Thinking of a sidecar for my Labrador Maggie.
