The Kawasaki 1400GTR was a sport-touring motorcycle, also known as the Concours 14 or ZG1400 in several markets. The bike was manufactured from 2007 when it replaced the GTR1000 model, and continued production until 2022.
In 2009, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Kawasaki 1400GTR, a sport-touring motorcycle that retained the same engine and chassis as the 2008 model, delivering the same technical, visual, and performance specifications.
In the visual department, the motorcycle had standard features, such as a full fairing with a large windscreen, a one-piece dual seat, a small luggage rack, side-mounted hard panniers, and lightweight aluminum wheels.
The bike's suspension system comprised a 43 mm inverted and adjustable telescopic fork on the front and a bottom-link uni-trak gas-charged adjustable shock absorber on the rear, offering excellent suspension performance and handling.
The braking performance was handled by two 310 mm semi-floating petal discs with four-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 270 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear wheel, providing excellent stopping power.
As for the power figures, the 2009 Kawasaki 1400GTR had installed a 1,352cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 155 hp with a peak force at 8,800 rpm and 136 Nm (100 lb-ft) torque at 6,300 rpm.
The bike's power was transferred to a six-speed manual transmission with a wet multi-disc clutch and sent to the rear wheel through a final shaft drive, pushing the motorcycle to a top speed of 254 kph (158 mph).
