Kawasaki Europe, the 2011 W800

I like it. And I could get interested, but it weighs more than a 919.

W800 appears to be about 70hp, 476 lbs, and 773cc. It's closer to being a 750.

sometimes they round the cc up, and sometimes down.

Me likes. Like any other awesome bike that goes to Europe first, betcha it'll never make it across the ocean or probably only be available for two years on a limited production run. That's what happened to the W650.

Every time I say that, they bring it over and I don't buy one.... FZ8, Super Tenere, CB 1000R, and the list goes on. Nice bike though.

You know, I really do like Bonnevilles. And metric Big4 Bonnies are basically better.

So I'd like to see a W800 with carbon parts to lighten it up, and scrambler high pipes.

Having said that, here's a German Clubman conversion that got introduced only two hours after the W800.
