2009 Kawasaki Concours 14, 1400GTR available in black or red

Update: Check out our 2009 Kawasaki Concours 14 review.

The Kawasaki Concours 14 (or 1400GTR as its known outside the USA) is a mature, classy sports tourer. So we’re pleased to see that its new colors — black or a rich, deep red — reflect that. Both are better than the previous silver at making the bike look expensive, which at $13,499, it really isn’t. For 2009 it receives no other mechanical changes, but with a 155bhp engine and 155mph top speed, it didn’t really need any.
