I bought this bike recently. Came from a Concours 14. Just as fast on low end. Not as fast on the go to jail speeds 😂 Comfortable. Fast. Amazing Wind protection. Corners amazing. Has all the things. Cruise. Heated grips. ABS. Traction control. 50mpg

Kawasaki also has linked braking called K-ACT which also includes ABS...wonderful technology. I have to disagree on your comment to never use rear braking. Using hard front only braking in a turn could end up dropping the bike, especially on big heavy bikes like Harley's. Rear braking is also essential in controlled slow speed turns and friction zone control. Love the videos.

@@Srkcycles if you are NOT using the rear brake often with the front brake then you are handicapping yourself as a rider. No question about it you can brake sooner and more controlled using a mix of front and rear brake in appropriate situations.

What I like about these reviews that you guys do is that you show the bike in action - not just the standard in-cockpit shots like most others. This is what I found to be the most useful. So thanks for that. I just bought a 2017 Trophy SE and this bike is Awesome. It is Fast, nimble and very luxurious. It also has one of the best feature sets I have found on a bike in this class. So thanks again and keep up the good work.

3:27 Dude, 140HP on a sport-touring motorcycle is still WAY up there, it’s nothing to sneeze at. My Burgman 650 has ~54HP to move ~850 pounds of cycle+rider+gear - and it gets up and leaves the cages behind at the stoplights. Seriously considered buying a Trophy in the late 90’s, but the chain drive turned me off - as well as the foot positioning. If it had been belt or shaft, I might have been riding a Triumph instead of a POS Vulcan 1500 (and then slightly later a Valkyrie, which was awesome.)
