Thought that I'd pass it along.

I might check it out myself on Sat if I can.

I'd love to have that Kawasaki W 650.   :)

I can't help about the shape I'm in
I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to

I'll take the 2 strokes and the CX500.

I have a soft spot for the CX having ridden one for about 65,000 miles.

From a post somewhere else on the internet

Honda CX500
500cc, V twin, water cooled, shaft drive, 112mph (not). Not a patch on the Laverda but a great despatch bike. Comfortable saddle (riding 1,000 miles a  week), low maintenance. Had this for about 2 years. Very early one morning in the company of a friend on a Suzuki GS1000 I raced down the Edgware Road in North London. Keith got chased by a Flying Squad (police) car and was stopped doing 130mph in a 30mph zone. He didn't get a ticket they just wanted to make sure the bike hadn't been stolen.


And if the Gpz550 is like a European model without the silly big fairing I'll take that as well.

From the same elsewhere post

Kawasaki GPZ550, four cylinder, chain drive, pocket rocket.
This replaced the CX500 and what a transformation. Like getting off a broken down horse and climbing into a F16.  This made despatch riding even more fun. The foot pegs had small balls welded on the underside of them and the foot pegs also folded up about 5 degrees. I wore the balls off the underside of the foot pegs With a new set of Dunlop TT100's this bike would handle so well. I really enjoyed roundabouts; on a dry day I had a smile wider than a Cheshire Cat.
