Lots of Concours 14 in Action...

stupolvo · 07-18-2007, 05:07 PM

In the coverage of Tour de France on Versus. Lots of different colored ones too - I guess Kaw Europe is using it as a big-time marketing opportunity.

I end up watching the motorbikes now more than the cyclists!

if anyone's interested, I found a concours 14 on the showroom floor in the metroplex at Kawasaki of Carrollton. said it just arrived today.

Hmmm.... my sister-in-law lives in Carrollton and we are actually going up there this weekend. Maybe I'll make a little stop by the Kawi dealer.

Thanks for the heads-up.

I was looking at an 08 KLR in Georgetown last week. I think it was the third they have had in so far. Looked pretty good for a KLR.

New Kawi dealer on SW Houston had a new Conni too. No KLR though I asked.

Central Texas Powersports in Georgetown just got an ABS model of the Concours14 in today. I stopped in today to get the lic. plate for my Connie14 and found this out. It looks like they are getting 1 in every week.

They used the older Connies a lot for that in the past...There were a couple of pics of a cameraman running out in front of one and getting run over.

this exhaust looks awfully familiar to that on my fz1:

I don't know anyone in the race. But I too have watched to see the new C14 in some sort of action.

I hope I can resist temptation until the 09 model year... and then I hope patience is rewarded by a black model.
