Silver 2008 Kawasaki Concours 14 ABS

2008 Kawasaki ZG1400A Concours 14 ABS
2008 Kawasaki 1400GTR ABS
JKBZGNA128A010001

Silver (the fastest color)
41,384 miles (all touring, never used as a commuter)
Garage kept, great condition, never dropped.
Clear title

Bike magazine said it best: "The comfy tourer that does 170mph!"

Over $4K of extras
 * Area P carbon fiber exhaust: even more power (which is insane), sounds great, and not loud.
 * 2 Cee Baily windshield, plus stock windshield (tall/tour, med, and short/sport)
 * Mounts and wiring to power Garmin GPS, and Valentine 1 radar detector
 * Autocom: Audio wiring for GPS, radar detector and MP3-player/phone. Could also handle communications between passenger/driver.
 * Radiator grill/protector
 * LED lights above license plate for extra visibility.
 * Tank grips
 * Brand new Michelin Pilot Road 3 tires
 * Throttle locks (easy to use cruise control)
 * Custom re-worked seat is almost 1" lower, which makes the bike that much more confidence inspiring.
 * Buell pegs are 1" lower, which makes the bike more comfortable on long rides.
 * Passenger pegs have extensions that make them 2" lower and .5" wider. My wife had complained that her legs were cramped. She's happy doing 9 hour days now. They can be removed in seconds.
 * Custom top-case mount is MUCH stronger than the stock one, and fits Givi cases.
 * Givi top-case with back-rest pad included.
 * Black reflective material on back of pannier cases. Not noticeable during the day but hi-vis at night.
 * Frame-sliders/cage, not installed

The wiring and most of the extras were installed by the dealer at the time of purchase. The stock exhaust for example was never installed on the bike. I bought the bike a couple months after it arrived in the states, with 700 miles on it and almost all of those extras. The original owner is an awesome guy, but is 5'4" and said the bike was too tall for him. ..my gain, and now your gain.

The Kelly Blue Book value is $7390!

Note: I'm also listing the bike on Craigslist, so I reserve the right to cancel this auction.

I love this bike so much. It changed my life, by opening up real distance/adventure touring to me. Anyone that knows this bike knows that 40k miles is nothing. This bike has NEVER had any kind of mechanical failure. However, my wife is pregnant, so I don't think I'll be able to get in much riding and I need the extra funds.
