This Video will take you on some back roads with un paved sections. Nathan and Tom will be joining me for one of our fall foliage rides during peak "Leave Peeking Season ". The bikes we ride are a 2021 Moto Guzzi V85 Travel, a 2003 BMW F650 GS and a very nice 2009 Kawasaki Super Sherpa. They are all “previously owned bikes”. You can check out the Moto Guzzi and the BMW on my @lifetimeadventures9107 channel as I have published videos about those bikes. The KAWASAKI was recently purchased with very low mileage and it is in like new condition with many extras included. I have found that you can have a ton of fun on a previously owned motorcycle without having to spend lots of dollars.
The Kawasaki Super Sherpa motorcycle is built to tackle a wide range of terrain and appeal to a broad spectrum of riders. Its light weight, maneuverability, low seat height, electric starting, ease of operation and outstanding fuel economy help make the Super Sherpa especially appealing to novice riders who are developing their riding skills.
