Kawasaki CONCOURS description
Comfort is key when riding the Concours 14, and the smooth revving engine doesn't convey any hints of vibration or strain unless pushed to the upper extremities of its 10,500 rpm power range. In spite of its smoothness and civility, though, the Concours powerplant produces impressive numbers-- 156 horsepower and 103 lb-ft of torque-- that will satisfy the most power hungry of long distance travelers. Ergonomics for the Long Haul, with More than a Touch of Sportiness The Concours 14's styling is more mature than the ZX-14's, as are its ergonomics. Handlebars are 96mm further back and 150mm higher, the seat is 15mm higher, and the footpegs are 30mm lower and 30mm more forward; these changes translate to a more comfortable seating position over extended periods of time. Comfort is passed on to the passenger, as well, with a dual density foam setup that makes the rear seat softer than the front. Though the rider's arms are still stretched slightly forward in order to reach the grips, the Kawasaki's ergonomics combine sportiness and comfort quite nicely. Controls are all within reach. In addition to the large analog speedo and tach, the LCD display offers instant and average fuel economy, estimated cruising range, a tire pressure indicator, and a gear position indicator. Other thoughtful touches include large folding mirrors and a glove box. An electric, stepless windscreen comes standard with the bike. While it glides up and down with pushbutton-operated ease. |
