Kawasaki W650
The Kawasaki W650 has a top speed of 175 km/h, produces 50 hp and weighs 202 kg. Motoryk rates it 8/10.
تم تقديم Kawasaki W650 في عام 1999 كتكريم حديث للدراجات النارية المزدوجة الموازية ذات الطراز البريطاني الكلاسيكي في الستينيات، المستوحاة بشكل خاص من Kawasaki W1 الأسطورية لعام 1966. تم تصميمه لالتقاط الجمالية والطابع القديم للدراجات القديمة مع دمج الموثوقية والهندسة الحديثة، ويتميز بمحرك كاميرا مزدوجة يعمل بالتروس المشطوفة يحاكي مظهر قضبان الدفع الكلاسيكية. اكتسبت W650 متابعين مكرسين بين متسابقي المقاهي وعشاق موسيقى الريترو وتم إنتاجها حتى عام 2007، ثم تبعها لاحقًا W800 المحقن بالوقود في عام 2011.

ما يجب أن يعرفه المشترون
Bulletproof Engine Reliability
The W650's parallel-twin engine is widely regarded as exceptionally reliable with minimal major failures reported. Regular oil changes and valve clearance checks are virtually all it needs to run for decades.
Watch for Carb Issues
Sitting bikes commonly develop clogged carburetors due to old fuel varnish buildup — always ask about storage history. A carb clean or rebuild is inexpensive but is the most frequent issue buyers encounter.
Strong Resale Value
The W650 holds its value unusually well due to its discontinued status (produced 1999–2008) and cult following among retro-café enthusiasts. Clean examples often sell for close to purchase price years later.

"الدراجة النارية الأكثر صدقًا التي صنعتها كاواساكي على الإطلاق."
لقد قطعت 14000 كيلومتر على W650 2002 وما زلت أفكر في الأمر أكثر من الدراجات التي تكلف ثلاثة أضعاف ذلك. يُصدر محرك الكاميرا المشطوف صوتًا ميكانيكيًا لا مثيل له - زوبعة خافتة ودقيقة تحت نوتة العادم تذكرك بأن الهندسة يمكن أن تكون فنًا. إنها ليست سريعة، وقوة 50 حصانًا تشبه تمامًا 50 حصانًا، لكن منحنى عزم الدوران خطي جدًا واستجابة دواسة الوقود نظيفة جدًا لدرجة أن الركوب في المناطق الحضرية يصبح تأمليًا حقًا. الإحباط الحقيقي هو الحماية من الرياح: فوق 130 كم/ساعة أنت فقط تحارب الفيزياء، وتبدأ أجزاء الكروم - على الرغم من جمالها - في التنقر إذا نظرت إليها بشكل خاطئ في المناخ الرطب.

"The most honest classic twin money can currently buy used."
$3,500-$6,500 usedThe W650 is one of those bikes that gets under your skin in a way that's hard to explain rationally. It's not fast, it doesn't handle like a sportsbike, and the technology stopped evolving around 1999 — because that's essentially the point. Kawasaki built something that looks and feels like a 1960s British twin but actually starts first kick, doesn't leak oil, and won't strand you roadside. That parallel twin with its bevel-gear-driven cams sounds absolutely gorgeous at a steady cruise. Used examples need careful inspection around the carb diaphragms — they crack and cause flat spots that frustrate new owners who blame the engine. Check the fork seals, too; they're a known weak point on higher-mileage bikes. Cam chain tensioners occasionally rattle on cold starts but usually self-resolve once warm. Parts availability is decent but not brilliant, so budget accordingly. If you want a genuine café racer base or a Sunday morning machine that makes you smile without destroying your wrists, this is genuinely special. Just don't expect it to keep pace with modern traffic.
