Any experience with a Kawasaki mean streak?

[Brad (bchez)]

Came across someone selling a 2008 mean streak for $6500. The kicker is he’s including his 2004 Vulcan 800 in that price. Too good of a deal to pass up. Oldest son turns 16 next spring so he gets the 800 and we’ll have another nice bike to ride around on.
I found a few sites for the mean streak but nothing like the VTX. Hopefully its problem free like the VTX.

don't know about reliable, but I'm guessing it's fine.

I do know that the mean streak is a great looking cruiser and you hardly ever see one, which makes them cool.

What color is it? The 2008 and 2009's had some nice custom looking color schemes.

Thats what first caught my eye was the color, red and black.

The 2004 looks good too.

That Meanstreak looks awesome! I've owned two Kawi's (ZX6R and Z1000) and never had a single problem with them. There motors and trannies are bullet proof!

Brad check your PM's!

The Meanstreak is a great bike as with all Kawasaki's. I was going to buy a Meanstreak before i rode a VTX 1800. I think the VTX is finished off nicer than the Meanie and the VTX fits me better as the Meanie was a little longer in the legs (short ass!).

That's a great deal... you'd be crazy to pass it up.

Cheers,
Brian

That's the color i was thinking off...I love that one. Drooled over it at a dealer last year. Even the stock pipes look nice on it. Nice score!!

:congrats: :congrats: Nice looking bikes and can't beat the price. Kawasaki's make a great bike, one of the hot sport tours is the Concours 1400, fantastic reports. Red and Black Kooool.
