I've owned over 100 motorcycles, however none, have been as enjoyable to ride as the W650. It's reasonably fast, smooth and light, and absolutely reliable. The W650 is so torquey, it pulls stronger that a Bonnie even at low rpms. The W650 looks and feels more like a classic Triumph than the new Hinkley Triumphs. Kawasaki introduced the W650 in 1999 and was sold worldwide through 2006, however sold in US for only two years. There were about 1500 units sold US in 2000 and 1000 units sold in 2001. This W650 is completely stock, factory original, with 2230 miles, runs perfect. The W650 is way cooler than a Harley, it's lighter, smoother, more fun to ride, looks better, brakes work better, finger-light clutch pull, shifts smoother, no oil leaks, no vibration and not everyone has one. The W650's will increase in value, unlike a Harley, which will most likely decrease in value. An example of increased value: In 1990 Honda dealers were selling GB500 Honda's for $3400. A Honda GB500 recently sold at the Mecum Auction in Las Vegas for $12,000. It was reported another GB sold for $15,000. Last month, a couple GB500s sold on ebay, one with 9,000 miles and another with lower miles for near $11,000. I have owned several GB500s, although they are beautiful to look at, I don't particularly like riding the GB500, not near as much as a W650. MY POINT IS, this W650, if kept in nice condition, is sure to increase in value, while you enjoy riding and owning it. One of the nicest standard motorcycles ever made, it will draw crowds where you ride. There are W650s out there for sale for less money, ( NOT WITH 2200 MILES), most have more miles, some have been altered, and many are misrepresented, sellers saying they are showroom and like new etc. LOL. Often times the seller does not intentionally misrepresent the bike, it's just one persons like new, and mint. is different than someone else's. OK, why am I selling, well, I tend to get carried away. I presently own nine motorcycles, three W650's ( picture enclosed, the maroon tank W has 491 miles, the Blue W is a 2002, with 1800 miles.) ONLY THE BLUE AND SILVER 2000 W650 is for sale.. I'm 70 years old, and don't need three W650s. Time to ride and smell the roses. Heck, if I ride the maroon tank W, 500 miles a year, by the time I'm 80, it will still only have 5500 miles on it. I don't like questions on ebay or email. If you have questions, call me. 407-617-3417 Bike is for sale locally, therefore, I reserve the right to end auction at any time. I will assist in shipping, however the cost of shipping is responsibility of buyer.
