Key Kawa Wawi I didn't know the Super Sherpa was still being made, is it true? If so I might scrap the Yamaha XT 225 idea and go for one of those. Pleas more info.

Yeah! But... I just checked kawasaki.com and couldn't find it. Maybe it's only in Canada? (that would be wierd)
Here it is on the Kawasaki Canada website:

We are very happy with the bike. I did look at the XT225, but it seemed a little bit more "cumbersome" for my wife.
She's 5'5' and about 110 lbs.
I also felt that the Kawi just seemed like a higher quality machine for the money. Dual discs, stainless exhaust system, more displacement... Just seemed like a higher quality product for the money. My only complaint so far about the Sherpa is the ridiculous lean jetting from the factory. It almost won't run when cold - it needs some serious warm up time before any riding can be done. (Still haven't un-capped the pilot screw yet, that should help).
