CONCOURS 14/ 14 ABS THE MOST POWERFUL PRODUCTION SPORT TOURER
Kawasaki’s newest tour de force was engineered to be the most technically advanced supersport-touring motorcycle in histor y. Strong words?
Yes. But the Concours 14 stands ready to back them up. The evidence starts with a sophisticated fuel-injected 1,352cc In-line Four engine with
ground-breaking Variable Valve Timing (VVT) that spreads the powerband to an impressive breadth for effortless acceleration and passing. It
borrows Ninja® sportbike technologies such as dual Ram Air that increases engine output as the speed builds, and all that power flows through
a sophisticated Tetra-Lever system that virtually eliminates the rising/falling torque effect that’s common in shaft-drive bikes. The aluminum
monocoque frame is both lightweight and stiff, while a compact wheelbase and Ninja-style inverted fork provide amazing handling agility.
Finally, sportiness and safety combine with features like tire-pressure sensors and radial-mount front brake calipers with available ABS.
Best of all, when you step aboard, the KI-PASS keyless-start system is ready for your command. Now that’s smart engineering.
• Advanced digital instrumentation combines an analog tachometer
and speedometer with a multi-function LCD trip computer. The
display includes tire pressure, gear position, battery voltage, trip
details and fuel consumption. A bright fuel gauge, odometer and
clock complete the instrumentation.
• The sealed Tetra-Lever shaft drive system feels like a chain drive system
thanks to its 4-link swingarm that minimizes the squatting and lifting
common on normal shaft drive machines.
• Dual balancer shafts and

• Kawasaki also breaks new ground in the supersport touring class with the world’s
first Variable Valve Timing camshaft system. At low engine speeds, the hydraulically
controlled actuators adjust the position of the camshaft for optimum valve timing at
various rpm. The result is enhanced low speed engine torque and as engine speeds
pick up, the system alters the cam timing to ensure the Concours delivers the
expected unparalleled Kawasaki top end rush.
engine response for all-day comfort with excellent rider feedback.
• The Concours sets a new, higher standard for its level of high-performance
in a supersport touring machine thanks to its 1,352cc 4-cylinder DOHC In-
Line Four engine that’s based soundly on Ninja® ZX-14 credentials.
• The tri-oval muffler on the full-stainless steel exhaust system features
a
4-2-1
layout and an integrated catalyzer for maximum efficiency with low emissions.
• The advanced, electrically adjustable wind-
screen allows riders to select the amount of
wind protection to suit riding conditions.
• Huge 310mm petal-style front disc brakes with
radial-mount, 4-piston calipers and individual
brake pads are balanced with a large 270mm
rear disc brake to guarantee awesome
• The large hardcase rear saddlebags feature a convenient single key lock and are quickly detachable.
Complementing the bags is a centrally located glove compartment on top of the fuel tank plus there’s a
sturdy rear luggage rack that can accommodate an available accessory top box.
• The remote-reservoir UNI-TRAK® rear suspension
features an easy-to-reach, remote hydraulic
spring preload adjuster for the gas-charged rear
shock while up front the Concours features an
adjustable 43mm inverted cartridge front fork.
• The remote keyless ignition system, Kawasaki Intelligent Proximity Activation Start System (KIPASS) offers riders the

stiffness for exceptional stability that offers riders impeccable sport bike manners on the street.

labyrinth of curves stretching up the mountain, powering up
the straights and mastering the turns with the authority of a

drawing ever closer and the electrically adjustable windscreen
set just right, you’re in a state of bliss and your passenger
