KAWASAKIConcours 14 ABS 2013 - 2014

　　In 2014, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Kawasaki Concours 14 ABS, a sport-touring motorcycle fitted with an Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) safety feature, making the model safer and better handling.

　　The motorcycle came with the same package as the previous model, delivering the same technical, visual, and performance specifications without any modifications whatsoever, except for redesigned tire pressure sensors, making battery replacement impractical.

　　In the aesthetic department, the touring motorcycle was identical to the previous model, packing standard features, such as a full fairing, an electric windscreen, a one-piece dual seat, a small luggage rack with integrated pillion grab rails, side-mounted panniers, and ten-spoke lightweight wheels.

　　The motorcycle was built on a monocoque aluminum frame with a 43 mm adjustable inverted telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable tetra-lever shock absorber on the rear, offering excellent suspension performance and handling.

　　The braking performance was handled by two 310 mm discs coupled to four-piston calipers on the front wheel and a 270 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering excellent stopping power enhanced by ABS.

　　As for the power figures, the 2013 Kawasaki Concours 14 ABS had its soul brought to life by a 1,352cc four-stroke four-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 156 hp at 8,800 rpm and 140 Nm (103 lb-ft) torque at 6,200 rpm.
