I am very impressed with the Kawasaki "V2K" in every area except 2: A) The ergonomics....suck. Very unusual for a Japanese manufacturer. Nothing that an $800 Corbin saddle can´t fix, but you shouldn´t have to resort to that. B) The absolutely outrageous prices of the very limited accessories, and the antiquated fit. )ver $500 for a backrest, and it´s not a "quick release"? Over $300 for passenger floorboards? Let´s face it, HD rapes you with their prices...but even they aren´t this bad. Not the way to sell V2K´s. For this bike to have the wrongly engineered rear shock for the swingarm is inexcusable also. I can´t believe that coming from Kawasaki. It´s basically a great bike....but there are enough stupid things wrong...to kill it.
