The 40th Tokyo Motor Show 2007

It is said that Kawasaki opens the site for the Motor Show on October 15 according to a certain Kawasaki dealer.
Maybe, it will be able to know more detailed information on the exhibition models at that time.


It was announced that H would exhibit “DN-01” in Makuhari Messe.  (10-04-2007 JST)
It is said that “DN-01” will be marketed according to the Public Relations Department of H.

I think that Externals of “LUXAIR” look like “G-STRIDER (2003)”.

Does not Kawasaki exhibit the prototype machine to be surprised this time? 
I had a strange dream last night・・・・・, Z1400, New Voyager, New GPz750 Turbo・・・・・.

I think that it is a motorcycle very suitable for the street in Japan.

The 40th Tokyo Motor Show 2007

I went to Makuhari Messe at the first day of Motor Show.
I immediately went to the Kawasaki booth, and checked the 1400GTR and the ZZR1400.


1400GTR (Malaysian model 2008)
There was no change point of the 1400GTR.
The protector of Cowl was not installed in the GTR.
Has not the protector been completed while still developing?





ZZR1400 (Malaysian model 2008)
I was very surprised to see a red ZZR1400.
It was very elegant, magnificent red.    







The color of the ZZR was different from the image of the press photograph.
http://journal.mycom.co.jp/photo/new...mages/003l.jpg



Does the color of the ZZR look like the color of this car?





When I was straddling the ZZR, I was able to image the appearance that I’m riding it.





It is a pity that the ZZR1400 of “metallic midnight sapphire blue” was not exhibited.
Though it was exhibited in the Motor Show of Europe and America・・・・・. 
http://www.kawasaki-motors.com/speci...632&height=490


In the experience zone, a lot of people happily straddled the motorcycle, and were taking the photograph. 
The Kawasaki booth produced in a friendly atmosphere.


The machine that was attracting the visitor's attention most in halls was Nissan “GT-R”.

Hey Warchild, Ive met you on the FJR owners site. I just ordered a C14 and will pick it up this week. I got tired of the FJR05 heat, so I think the C14, GTR1400 should be an upgrade to the FJR. What do you think.

The 40th Tokyo Motor Show 2007

I got the catalog in the booth of the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer.
These are catalogs of Japanese 4 manufacturer.





The front cover of H is “EVO6”.
The front cover of S is “Gemma”.
There is no photograph of the motorcycle in the front cover of Y.
The front cover and the back cover of K are 1400GTR.






1400GTR (Exhibition model)




It is expressed on the page of the GTR in Japanese, “Continent-Crossing Performance, let’s cross the continent”.
☆「Continent-Crossing Performance、さぁ、大陸横断を果たそう。」(Japanese)

Japan is an island country in East Asia.

Motor Show Special Site 2007

There is movie of the 1400GTR in the library of special site.

Library
http://www.kawasaki-motors.com/speci...ery/index.html

Movie/ 1400GTR
http://www.kawasaki-motors.com/speci...vie/movie.html

Because the motorcycle should ride on the left side of the road in Japan, the location of the movie is not Japan. 
Because the target market for the 1400GTR is Europe, ・・・・・is the location of the movie Europe?
