Kawasakis new Comfort Gel Seat features the “Comfort Step” shape providing the rider more support and the passenger more seating area. Plus it brings the seat height down by 1/2 inch, which any rider can appreciate. The Comfort Gel seat is just one of Kawasakis new accessories.
I ride a 2001 Yamaha V Star 1100 Classic and absolutely love it. My husband passed it down to me, and it never lets me down. I have ridden to Alaska and California from my home in Ontario, Canada.

I have been riding since 1986. My first bike was a Kawasaki ZR750, a bike I just loved. In fact, I promised myself I wouldnt trade it in unless I found one that was liquid-cooled and that I had to have. I had to have the 2003 Kawasaki Z1000.

I was 18 years old the first time I performed an oil and filter change on my motorcycle, and the knowledge I gained from doing it was gratifying and confidence inspiring.
