Just curious what everyone is running into so far with this "first year" machine. I have a defective front hub on mine that has caused the front disc rotor to warp. Also notice that once I use the choke and try to turn it off, it stays in a rich mode, like the choke is not disengaging. I have a date with the dealer to get these corrected. I'd like to know if anyone else has run into this or other defect/warranty issues, and what they are. I'm hoping this machine will not have a lot of "bugs" in it to deal with.

 

Hi there. I also have the BF. So far, I havent had any issues. Well, except for losing one of the wheel/hub caps. That is a common problem from what I read so I'm not gonna worry about it. No doubt, there may be a few bugs with the quad, but overall, I feel that they should be fine. It sounds like you got a couple of issues. The important thing is that your dealer takes care of you. Chances are that Kawasaki will NOT let their flagship model cause any headaches to owners since it would look bad.

Get those items taken care of and hopefully you'll be all set. Most of the BF feedback has been positive.

Good luck and keep us posted on your experiences...

Mike
