The 1400GTR was running on the side of the hotel.   Click⇒Bold-faced type
I think that the GTR is in harmony with the town in Alsace. (Map: Ottrott)

The appearance of the town is very beautiful, and the hotel style is very romantic.
If there is a chance to go to the Continent, I want to visit the town with the family.

In Luciano Pavarotti's number list, there is opera "L’Ami Fritz".
“Fritz” whom I know is movie director's Fritz Lang.
I saw his work "Metropolis" several times in childhood.

When November comes in Japan, the topic of wine is taken up by the mass media.
My family drinks “Beaujolais nouveau” and “Beaujolais Villages Nouveau” on the third Thursday in November every year.
Those wines are imported from France by airplane.
Because of the time difference the opening time is earlier than Europe.

Oil Temperature Gauge

RR Oil Temperature Gauge (Made in Germany)

This Kawasaki dealer's manager loves motorcycle of Kawasaki very much.
If I live in Nagoya, I might buy the motorcycle of Kawasaki in this shop.


The reception for next year's summit was held at a certain hotel last night.
I saw several Shiro bai near the hotel.
☆Shiro bai: White police motorcycle

When I was watching American television series "CHiPs" in childhood, I wanted to have ridden such a big motorcycle (Z1000 P) sometime.

I want to see the police motorcycle model of 1400GTR, because “Shiro bai” is equipped with the equipment of the advanced technology.

The manufacturer name doesn't write on the web page of Kawasakiya.
It is written, "Manufacturer (RR Co.) in Germany" on this web page.

Related information
(1) Adding an Oil Temperature Gauge, “The Aftermarket Instrumentation FAQ-GS/Dakar”
(2) “RR-OELTEMP.DIREKTANZEIGER”, “Louis”

The oil filler cap of the 1400GTR is the same product number as the ZZR1200 and the GPZ1100. 
Cf. 2008 ZG1400A8F (1400GTR): “CAP-OIL FILLER”, 16115, 161151009

Hi Uhjeen

Arigatou。 (Japanese: Thank you.) 

By the way, the number 1 beer of Japan is "Super Dry" of Asahi Breweries, Ltd..
It is a very famous beer in Japan.
In the other day's reception, this beer was served.

Color Change

Kawasaki Motors Japan announced new 2008 domestic models. (11-21-2007 JST)

There is no change point of the performance and the specification.
Almost all of the change points are only the colors.

Related Information
(1) New 2008 Models, “Kawasaki Information”
(2) Kawasaki announced the 2008 models of the color change


I saw a Lyme green GPZ900R in the intersection the other day.
The lime green of the GPZ impressed me a very bright, fresh.
At that time, I thought, "When is the ZZR1400 of the lime green sold?" in the mind.


1400GTR except standard color
Photos: pw1, pw2, pb1, pb2, cr1, cr2, cb1, cy1

Is the color of the 2009 1400GTR changed?
If there is a color change, what color is added?
I expect that red like the wine red or blue like the blue sapphire is added.
My expectations come true・・・・・!?

Those are some nice colors. I like the white, blue, and the 2nd red (wine?). I bet the white ones could easily pass for a police bike.

Winter has come.

Maybe, many of GTR’s riders might live in the northern hemisphere.
Though I also live in the northern hemisphere, it is possible to ride the motorcycle all the year round.
However, I hardly get on the motorcycle in winter.

Motorcycle Stove League
I'm examining the new motorcycle of next year closely in winter.
I like to imagine riding a new motorcycle next spring in a warm room. 
It might be the happiest time for me.

Birthplace
Here is a place where the brother of your motorcycle did the running test.
Here is covered with snow now.

2009 1400gtr

The reservation of the 1400GTR (2008 model year) ended on December 28, 2007.
According to the Kawasaki dealer, the 1400GTR (2009 model year) is scheduled to be sold this autumn.

H: The DN-01 is scheduled to be sold in Japan.
Y: The FZ1 FAZER (Japanese model) is sold in Japan on February 28, 2008.
S: A lot of big motorcycles have already been sold in Japan.
K: There is even no rumor from which the ZRX1400R (?) is sold in Japan.

If I see the lineup of Kawasaki Motors Japan, I feel sad. (-_-)
I hope Kawasaki Motors Japan sells the 1400GTR (Japanese model) in Japan.

Recall Information

“Bright” announced overseas recall information on the 1400GTR. (02-04-2008 JST)

Subject of recall: Rear carrier, Lock assembly of saddlebag


Though I think that engineers are always aiming to make the most of the advanced technique,
and to develop the product with high safety・・・・・.
Riders hope to deal with the problem immediately when trouble occurs.
