Two Wheel Fix - View Single Post - Anyone thinks Kawasaki's quality is slightly lower compared to other bikes?

I've owned many many bikes...Kawis mostly, but 1 new GSXR, 1 new Honda 600rr and a used YZF600r and FZ1. I will say Yammie has the best engines, followed by the rest. The Honda feels the most refined, but after 2006, Kawi was right up there. I would say the 2006 ZX10r felt just if not more refined then my 2007 600rr, esp. in the engine/transmission dept.

The one thing is for sure, Hondas are a PAIN IN THE ASS to work on, other than brakes an oil changes.
