i rode a 2000 for just a hour or so and this is what i noticed:
huge!,awful heavy,good power,smooth shift,200 back tire,decent seat
rectifier in bad place down low on bottom of frame behind front wheel,clutch pivot into tranny in a goofy position and not very beefy,footboards are wiggly,scrapes in a hard turn
overall from a 1 hour ride,its just too much bike for me-i'm sure alot of folks will like it though
i still say it should've been a fully dressed upgrade from the nomad insted of a stripped cruiser-seem kawi was trying to give some harley qualitys to this bike with the separate tranny,belt drive :roll: , the nomad and the 1600's are still the best values and performers in the herd in my humble and worthless opinion :lol:
