I received this info via email from Peter Stevens motorcycles (various stores in Victoria). I would post the jpg if I knew how. The link to bikesales is the same bike (krt replica) and I'm guessing the store is Peter Stevens. There are other deals for other bikes. I think there is just the one Z125 PRO KRT though. I'm actually after a honda grom for my partner (grom is lower seat height), but this kawasaki offer is a good deal.
A perfect stepping stone to the ZX-14
yup ;)
Yeah :) It actually is :) I have a ktm 990 smt and a little honda cb 125e I bought for my 4'11" girlfriend that was too big for her to learn on. I had so much fun riding it home from the dealer that I was happy to have it. I have really worked my skills on and off road on that bike. Things like clutchless shifts and trail braking on the front, or slow manouvering in a car park or the off road style of sitting upright and pushing the bike down on corners on tight small twisty road where I'm trying to be as compact as possible for oncoming traffic. Lots of stuff that's a joy to practice on a cheap, light, easy to mend bike.
Must be quick
Maximum Power 7.1 kW
Maximum Power RPM 8,000
Maximum Torque 9.6 Nm
Maximum Torque RPM 6,000
wow my shitty cb125e has more power!!!
they're not shitty, they're amazing :) The 18" wheels make them really versatile. The little kwaka would leave us for dead though, I'm guessing, 35kg makes a difference.
u know there's lawnmowers that would rip this a fresh one
Yeah i was kidding:) for what i use the cb125 is amazing (commuting) . And it was $1000 cheaper.
Seriously why do they even bother producing these road bikes, you might as well be on a pushy.
Have you seen how much pushys cost these days?
Body: Naked
Oh my !!!
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Why is it called "Replica"?
The paint job is a replica of the KRT (Kawasaki Racing Team) bikes.
It says price includes insurance, buy how good?
Do you get private room and full dental reconstruction cover?
Seriously though, a commuter bike like this could be handy. How do they cope with freeway speeds?
How do they cope with freeway speeds?
They are good for watching the traffic whiz by
So similar to the 125cc scooters we may have ridden in Asia? (I really should get a license.)
I wouldnt risk it on the freeway imo.
250 would be the smallest i feel safe on when riding on the freeway.
What's the top speed?
Can they do 100 on flat road?
That's pretty poor.
iirc I think my bro got a new Ninja 250 for about the same price a couple years ago.
Though for a small bike I'd prefer naked.
Expensive moped
Is it though? Even a random Chinese 125 will run you $3k
Hmm, like with cars, I'm still convinced it's better to buy 2nd hand. You can pick up a more powerful 150cc Yamaha R15 with only 10,000 km for under $1,500.
How much is it normally?
