The Kawasaki Concours14 has a great deal of suspension adjustability. Dave provides solo and passenger settings for the rider.

I have owned a cbr1100xx and fjr 1300 , both for several years ... I have now a Concours 14 2015 and believe me this big beast is a sport-touring

[@52fordguy]

Looks like Cycle Gear in Fairfield Ca.

Youe opinuon if this bike is a sport tourer or not is just that, this bike can lean deep,has tons of power and has a sports frame . Put the windshield down, remove the bags and you can this bike on the track It is a aport tourer

[@catalystreactionsbw]

To me it is 100% a sports touring motorcycle. So much so in fact I will be buying one this summer.

@@catalystreactionsbw I recommend her. she is awesome. a few upgrades i recommend : Vstream windshield., I am 5.10 and although the windshield raises just to under my nose,i never use the shield on the helmet unless it is raining or riding behind a dump truck get a custom seat if you are planing on doing huge trips. So far i have bought two, a saddlemen and a corbyn, the first one was ok, the corbyn seems the best but it has taken a long time to break in (over 10000 miles in fact ) but it is finally starting to feel comfy enough) People out there make custom seats that cut them to your weight and I heard those are the best if you dont care about style and more about comfort. Also get a throttle lock, they are the poor man's cruise control,it comes in handy when you want to give your right hand a break or just to alleviate pressure a bit., Thats it! she served me well, several cross state trips and she still lights right up. And she is still fun to take on short trips as well.

@@catalystreactionsbw Funny to see recent replies on an older video. Just found your channel. Funny enough, I cross shopped an H2 SE vs the concours. Got sucked in by the fancy whiz bang of the H2, but probably should have settled for the Connie given I try to ride it to work daily most of the year round. (~100 miles round trip) Would be nice to not constantly be doing a chain clean and lube.

@@catalystreactionsbw Hey Dave, You got my Orange ZX10 to handle perfectly for AFM and track days. I was always amazed you could decipher my "it does this, it does that" language at all those events. So a few days ago I bought a '13 Concours 14. Time to start tuning it :-) Ill be in touch.

[@catalystreactionsbw]

@@scottlampkin180 Hi Scott! Look forward to the Concours. Thinking of buying one myself......

Oil does not wear out it just gets OUTSIDE CONTAMINATION

[@CameoLux]

This bike is definitely a SPORT tourer, it will easily do all sport tasks, if anything the seat out of the factory is too sporty and not tourer enough. But I saw you say you hadn’t rode one, and she looks a lot bigger than her competition, so no blame I guess

[@catalystreactionsbw]

I have ridden one and the Concours has presence both in weight and handling. The seat is tall so a 32" inseam or longer is a big help. Once set up with geometry and suspension, a lot of the weight disappears and the bike feels much lighter and is easier to ride.

[@psylentsage]

Put Corbin leather seats on mine feels way better than the stock seat did

[@LutherJrc]

I have the same problem to you, May i know what settings you have now?

[@catalystreactionsbw]

Do you have the same miles and do you weigh the same. If not, those settings will not be correct for you, For $40 I can give you your own settings for your bike ridden at your pace.

[@crsmedina]

Luther Jrc any updates for you question?

[@gabrielrodriguez2612]

@@catalystreactionsbw hi Dave I’m Gabriel I buy this one and I need setting for suspension. Do you can give me setting and like pay for your service thanks so much

[@ydl3084]

Dave Williams never rode this bike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@catalystreactionsbw]

Dave Williams, editor, replying here. Excellent point. My opinion is jaded for sure, limited by the sources mentioned. If I rode one I might just say, yep sport tourer extraordinaire. Every rider I've met who owns/owned one loves it.

[@ydl3084]

Thank you for the honesty.

[@blueberrywilbur315]

With all due respect I will wipe my ass with a VFR…..maybe the VFR is a touring bike chap
