Kawasaki Concours 14 description

2012 Kawasaki Concours. I'm the 3rd owner.

This bike is the Cadillac of sport-touring bikes. Smooth and comfortable. I bought it for a trip which quickly fell apart, and for my daily riding it's way more than I would ever possibly need.

The bike comes with ABS, TCS, and heated grips from the factory. Comes with the main key, the main fob, and a secondary fob that also has a bag key.

The bike has 18,6xx miles subject to change as I ride it.

New front Pilot Road 4 tire this season. Good Pilot Road 3 rear last season. New EBC brakes this year.

Extras include a Delkevic exhaust which sounds beautiful (the original exhaust comes with the bike) a V-Stream windshield taller than stock (the stock is not available but is readily findable in the aftermarket), factory bar risers on the handlebars and large trunk that can even fit a laptop bag or a full-face helmet. The previous owner is 6'5" and set it up for himself. I'm 5'9" and still don't feel the big is too big for me.

If you put the bike in eco mode and don't get really aggressive with stops and starts, you can get 43-45 mpg even at 70 mph... if you hammer on it and ride it like the ZX-14 it is based on, you will get 35-36 mpg.

The bike was maintained according to schedule. All oil changes were accompanied by final drive fluid changes.

The only and only one bad is that the bike was tipped/dropped on the right side leaving some cosmetic damage on the right trunk lid, plastics, and mirror. None of this is terrible. I've taken pictures of its showing the extent of the damage -- nothing is broken or cracked - it was SET over. It was not reported or submitted as a claim. I wouldn't hesitate hopping on this bike and riding across the country tomorrow.

Located in the southeastern suburbs of the Twin Cities Minnesota area, and will accommodate fly and rides and shipping services.

The TT800 From Deus Ex Machina

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

Deus Ex Machina, the surf/moto shop known for creating throwback, one-of-a-kind motorcycles, has released its latest work of art, the TT800. Paying tribute to the highly successful Triumph factory TT machines from the mid-1960s, Deus’ expert builder, Michael Woolaway, created the TT800 for a customer requesting a new, old Triumph. It sources a Kawasaki W650 bored out to 800cc with CR carbs, a custom TT inspired exhaust, custom chromoly racing frame, re-valved Öhlins forks, and a custom gusseted swing arm for more stability. A Beringer six-piston caliper front brake provides stopping power.
