This is a pretty sweet little bike!! I'd never heard of it until my Cuz called and said they've got one at the dealership by us.

Looks like suzuki finally has some competition for the SV. This Kwaka makes more power, and is cheaper too!

Check out the mono-shock and exhaust location.... swap those riser bars for some clip-ons and it'd be a ton of fun on the track.







Look how small it looks...

That's kinda nice lookin! Original design for the passenger pegs too. Almost has a streetfighter look to it...

Ew. Not sure I like the Euro version as much. Too... Lumpy.

Those are some crazy looking rearsets. Pretty interesting looking bike, I bet it'd be fun to ride.

I saw one at the dealership today. Fun looking bike. Much better looking than their last starter bike.

I like that euro version. The U.S. version has too much of the 600R ugliness to it.

Perfect! My GF is thinking about getting a bike in the future. This would be perfect for her. It looks pretty nice, too.
