I love mine, just be aware that from 03 the welds up by the steering head would Crack so in 04 they welding in gussets and 05 it was considered problem solved. They had kind of a silent recall where they would replace the 03 frame with the 04 frame, after a while they stopped doing that and dealers were sending out existing 03's that weren't swapped to be welded which in the manual clearly states from Kawasaki to " do not weld " the frames. My frame is fine, I believe the original owner had it swapped for the 04 frame. If you look up the part numbers for the frame from 03 / 04 / 05 you'll see they are different. Just something to be aware of, it really is a great machine though, enjoy
