All customs are inflating. After the Honda 1800 VTX and also competing with the Yamaha Road Star Warrior, Kawa gives more cm3 to its big "sumo". The line remains classic and we do not suspect that the frame has been lengthened and lowered. We wanted to be solid with the 1600 which carries very little plastic and lets its weight explode with good metal, very strong and very heavy. No problem for the big twin which takes the liner without worry … but in a frustrating discretion: discreet, linear, and even devocalized by the silencers which suffocate everything. Despite the increase in displacement and power, it should be borne in mind that the 1600 is a machine to respect and not to rush. Low ground clearance, poor rear suspension, frame not really in tune, not to mention the insane inertia in the virolos … a smooth ride is strongly recommended. It is also in this use that the big kawa is at best. Although stingy in sensations, the machine rides with ease, offering a natural driving position as well as sufficient comfort as a duo.
