This 2001 Kawasaki W650 is another very nice example of Japan’s interpretation of the quintessential British motorbike. Low miles and obviously very well cared for it’s worth considering if you’ve been waiting for the right one to come along.

The seller, who is the original owner, installed the Kawasaki OEM tail rack and OEM European low handlebar kit. He also installed smaller turn indicators, stainless steel brake lines and custom British chrome pipes after which he rejetted the carbs. Along with the sale he’s including the original parts replaced in the modifications noted, plus a solo Corbin Gunfighter seat, owner’s manual and more.

    Best color combo that there is for the W650. I’d lose the tank badges and put on the ones from the W1 (reproduction badges are available) I’d also write Hitchcock’s motorcycles and see if the 10 degree exhaust elbows would fit 🙂

    ..and either bar-end turn signals or bar-end mirrors.
