Did you know Kawasaki makes a utilitarian farmer's enduro motorcycle?
<p><img alt="The Stockman is a utilitarian motorcycle that is specifically built for the Australian and New Zealand market" src="https://assets.newatlas.com/dims4/default/583c135/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1280x853+0+0/resize/1280x853!/format/webp/quality/90/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnewatlas-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fc1%2F0f%2F2be616dd4cfc97d317fb3ab3ff75%2Fcq5dam-web-1280-1280-4.png" /><p>If there’s one thing I like, it’s purpose-built off-road motorcycles that are built to take a beating when the going gets tough, while offering a plush ride at other times with little to no complications. It seems that’s exactly Kawasaki’s mantra for this very interesting motorcycle.</p><p><a href="https://newatlas.com/motorcycles/kawasaki-strongman-enduro/">Continue Reading</a></p><p><b>Category:</b> <a href="https://newatlas.com/motorcycles/">Motorcycles</a>, <a href="https://newatlas.com/transport/">Transport</a></p><p><b>Tags:</b> <a href="https://newatlas.com/tag/kawasaki/" rel="tag">Kawasaki</a>, <a href="https://newatlas.com/tag/off-road/" rel="tag">Off-road</a>, <a href="https://newatlas.com/tag/utility/" rel="tag">Utility vehicles</a>, <a href="https://newatlas.com/tag/adventure-bikes/" rel="tag">Adventure Bikes</a>, <a href="https://newatlas.com/tag/farming/" rel="tag">Farming</a>, <a href="https://newatlas.com/tag/agriculture/" rel="tag">Agriculture</a>, <a href="https://newatlas.com/tag/all-purpose-vehicle/" rel="tag">All-purpose vehicle</a></p>
