Just been to my local dealer regarding the J300. I was told that they have one on order for a demonstrator, but he doesn't expect to see it until early spring. So looking forward to that.

Well, at least that indicates that it is coming to the UK, which we didn't know for certain.

Yeah it's well covered on the Kawasaki uk web site. I was also told it would be about £200 more that the Kymco Downtown. Which he said it was mechanically based on but with a Kawasaki designed body and other changes?.

It should have an mph speedo, so £200 well spent.
Wonder what the service interval will be...?

With a stroke of Genius the Speedo will be predominant MPH and service intervals far beyond those of Honda!

That will have GN2 all in a fluster!

What fun.....

Ah but will it have analogue instruments, adequate underseat storage, 80mpg fuel economy and ABS...?

Takes more than a proper speedo and decent service intervals to satisfy me ;)

£4200 would be quite nice, especially if Kawasaki put it out on one of their 0% finance deals :)

Who knows how they'll price it for the UK
