Wow, I've never even heard of that bike, shame too it's sharp as all get out. That could easily end up on a buy list for me. Personally I think they did a better job of capturing that classic styling than Triumph did. I'd have guessed the one you posted was over 40yrs old, and not merely a modern reproduction.
Kawasaki did do a great job with the styling, but I do have one very small nit to pick.  The W650's head is cast like an early Triumph on the left side.  However, spark plugs are in the center of the combustion chamber in the W650, leaving this opening where a sparkplug resided on the engine they emulated.

sounds like you're buying
It's on my list of cool maybe someday bikes, but any spare change is going towards my next Ducati.
