Wow!  Looks good, and impressive specs.

It has been so long since I have ridden an inline 4 cylinder.....I really don't know if I would still like one.  I am sure the modern bikes are much smoother than the ones I rode in the 70's.  Most of my bikes have been singles - the ST1100 was  V-4 and was smooth, the Ninja  250 is a parallel twin and can be a bit buzzy at times...mostly in the left miror.  The NT700 is a V-twin and is pretty smooth.  I have also ridden V2 Moto Guzzis, a BMW boxer twin, a Goldwing boxer 4......the only 3 cylinder bikes I have ridden were the Kawasaki H2 bikes back in 1972 when I worked at a dealer.

I am not very fond of the green color that is Kawasaiki's trademark color.

I like it, but I think I prefer the Z900RS standard.

If Suzuki had realised early on that the S40 was not a cruiser, we could have had a bike similar in form to these now 'retro' models. They could still put out a Suzuki 'Gold Star', Suzuki 'Manx' or Suzuki 'G50'. 8-)

Won't own a green bike !
Not much for 4 cylinders !
But it does have nice shapes and nice lines.

You couldn't give me this bike! looking at those riders ,even the midget they have on the second bike ,looks like he's riding a ninja! the pegs are to far back for this to be a comfortable bike for any long distance travel,and why the upswept muffler? Doesn't make it easy to throw on a set of bags. I think a standard bike needs to be a bit of "can do" for every purpose ,this just looks like a new/old style/bar hopper to me.that front fender is a joke !
