Great overview. Lovely bike. My only qualm is not technical. I dislike that the same bike is a “450” in the US and other parts of the wolf but a 500 in the UK, Europe, Canada and (I believe) Oz. It’s a 451cc. Calling it a 590 feels false to me. I know the Rebel 500 is playing the same game. But, Kawasaki should have taken the high ground and called it way it is. Could’ve made a good ad off of that. Oh well. Not a reflection on this bike or review. Just the marketing of it.
been going to Orwells in Ipswich for years , All off there new and used moterbikes are top draw and the staff are just great and helpfull in all maters :)

Thinking of either this, a rebel or the 650s as my next bike. Don't want a huge bike, just a lovely comfy seat that can beat traffic
The Eliminator 500 sounds perfect for you then 😃
This motorcycle is a fantastic choice imho… 🙂

Great bike though i love it. Has just enough speed to feel confident in the 100mph range
😊really well done good job from canada.
Thank you! 😃
Can you stand on the footpeg while riding?
We didn't try it! I'm sure you could to have a quick stretch of the legs if that's what you mean. Ride safely!
