Riding Tail Of The Dragon On The Kawasaki Concours 14 [4K]

[@douglasgrosch228]

Best bike I ever owned great ride.cheers

[@JSProjectWild]

Great stuff sir! Mine is a 2012, 11K miles with "Mountain Runner Premium" flash and Muzzy. Ride safe!🦾

[@LarryMusgrave]

I love my tuned (MRP) 2018. Sure, i wish it had cruise control.... but that's really my only gripe, and it's a minor one. The power and comfort, along with ability to control air for riding in below freezing tennis makes it the best bike I've I've ever owned for living in the rust belt and riding almost all year sind.

[@damarcuz1]

i would agree with you on the need of a cruise control seeing that its a touring bike but other than that it really is the perfect bike for sport touring.

After hearing all the stories about ‘the tail’ was expecting an off cambered, rough surfaced double helix type monster, instead saw what looked exactly like a Sunday run out to Fort William up the A82. So how are so many people binning it on ‘the tail’ ? Looked fun on the 14 though 🤭🤘

[@damarcuz1]

@nickvinten7803 I rode this two weeks after they repaved the entire thing. My first trip to the tail a year before was that rutted up crappy road you heard about

[@brandynborsi4748]

I got the Moore Mafia tune for mine. Saving for a gen 1 zx14 yoshi full pipe and copper dawg screen next. I love my concours14! Awesome riding looks amazing out there!🎉🎉yours sounds excellent!

[@damarcuz1]

@brandynborsi4748 I've been following Moore mafia for a long time now, and I'm considering getting his tune on my cbr1000rr and thank you for watching man.

[@timorr6507]

Tbank you....not had my 2013 concourse there as yet....AWESOME

[@aintnodisco7127]

Awesome ride! Don't know why, but that growl reminds me of the Gorn in the original Star Trek series.

Thank you for sharing this amazing video. Cant wait to get my GTR1400 also. Are your headers 4 in 1 or 4 in 2 like zx14r?

[@damarcuz1]

@8tavian999 thank you for watching and its a 4 into 1

[@Grimulas]

nice driving and good lines... question do... does the 2015 model have the engine heat on the legs problem ?

[@damarcuz1]

@Grimulas thank you man but I cant answer that question for you I have multiple air cooled bikes that are alot hotter than this thing at its hottest so I wouldn't be able to tell

[@Grimulas]

@@damarcuz1 ok thanks... i have a 2008 model and boy it can be dem hot at the legs in hot whether.

[@damarcuz1]

​@Grimulas have you considered getting the bike tuned my 15 has the Ivan's Tune and one of the things it does is turn on you're cooling fans at a much lower temperature.

[@Grimulas]

@@damarcuz1 need to consider that.. thanks 👍

[@f.f.s.d.o.a.7294]

Only first gen had heat on legs issue. I think it is 2010 and up with the revised fairing. I know my 2011 has new style, which was important to me daily driving in Alabama.

[@FlashBro-r4w]

That’s impressive! You kept it in 1st gear the whole time ?

[@FlashBro-r4w]

That makes the bike even funner. Did u use the brakes or did the low gear provide engine braking ?

[@Zephyr01697]

In 2nd gear the majority of the time. Touched 3rd gear only once or twice on the straight a ways

[@Jandejongjong]

If it’s a long red stripe on the road then we know you’ve been there.

[@motodork]

Nice, but I fear for your exposed body parts.

[@damarcuz1]

@motodork it's funny you say that my new gloves,riding boots,and riding jacket were just delivered to my house so you'll be seeing them in all my new content
