Kawasaki Concours 14 Trackday Houston MSRH
8-26-2018 Having fun with some friends, it's interesting to see what capabilities sport touring bikes have besides long distance highway riding.

this is the lap before my highside in turn 14 at TWS 11-30-2013, unfortunately due to the gopro case splitting in the crash, the previous 20ish seconds of video were lost.

This is how a loss of rear end traction looks like from the riders POV. It happens in the first left hander.

Riding at a Ridesmart trackday on the 1.3 mile course at Motorsports Ranch Cresson. The cameraman is Jorge on a ZX-10r and I'm on the silver and red SV650 with white leathers.

Harris Hill session with surprise ending!
Great video. Just what I was looking for.
The fat guy in front, sure takes odd lines?
5:09 looks like an R1 over take
3:45 over takes a Beamer… how you like them apples?
Nice
💪💯🔥
Great Rider !
Chào ông già. Ông sao rồi
Thank you for riding that big girl like I ride mine! People just don’t know! 😂😂😂
For the love of all that is holy please downshift 😂😂
Must be your head bouncing around with the camera on it.... Suspension couldn't be that bad.... ??? 😮
Hell yeah,use what you got bro. I have an FJR. Only the pussys who can’t throw a 600 plus pound bike around the track like a 600cc are haters!…..🫡
Så sugen på att byta till en GTR 1400
sir thank you for the video
Ok, how many times did you crash the bike? No mirror on the right side and right side dash is gone.
Gtr1400 is too heavy to work in the corner.
It looks like it did damn good to me........
I’d be so mad if I was on a liter bike, dragging my knee and still getting passed by that thing lol
Why would you have a tourer that’s 670lbs for a track day bike?
To humiliate people...
Why not? The track let's you expand your skills on any motorcycle you ride. I'm taking mine this summer so I can really run it without worrying about everything there is to worry about on the streets. Wouldn't you want to be better than you are on whatever machine you have?
Great job!!! Who says pigs can’t fly? You killed it out there. I own a 2019 Connie. Very impressed with the vid! Please tell me you had the bags on her when you were passing guys!!! 😂👍
No bags. It shows them removed at the start.
Why do I feel proud watching this, just because I've the same bike, it's the rider.
What group were you riding in? Did you raise the pegs or was there enough ground clearance?
There was lots of Concours 14 peg dragging.
I did hear them dragging @@psycotria
I got tired just watching this! Mad respect considering how heavy that bike is.
I’m impressed, especially on that big heavy shaft drive bike with soft fork settings
Great vid👍
This is a 700 pound, 151 HP sport touring bike. And my guy is slaying this track. Absolute mad man, I love it.
I have a tune 2013 concours. That pig rips bro! Unless you got skills it’s hard to keep up with a concours rider. I get hate from the 1000cc boys online who don’t even know what a concours is😂 yet here we are passing 600 & 1000’s!
Coming from a Concours owner, I wish Kawasaki had made the Concours engine with a 12 to 1 compression ratio like their 1400 race bikes had or have. It would really compliment the concours which weighs near 700 lbs. Plus the factory tune is horrible. Really restricts the motor. Good riding such a big bike.
Great riding 👌
Liter bikes, killing it on the straights. Clogging it up in the corners. Nice work on a bike that weighs 150lbs more than some of the bikes you put in your wake.
Wow, that is incredible riding! What a great bike!
Bitchin ride Brother ! That was fun to watch.....screeeetch.......peg sacrifice !
Missing a mirror did you down it already? Looks like great fun. I'm wanting to pick one of these up for a trip but I'll probably hit the track in topeka too! Super cool man
Im on my 2nd brand new C14, they are great bikes
Awesome
Great riding! Good to see what the GTR is capable of, thanks for posting
The big dude couldn’t pick a line to save his life. How frustrating it must of been.
IT WOULD BE FUNNY TO PUT THE SADDLE BAGS ON WHILE MAKING LAPS JUST TO PICK AT THE SPORT BIKE RIDERS. I JUST BOUGHT A LEFTOVER 2019 TO REPLACE MY 2008 HAYABUSA. I ALSO HAVE A 2010 VOYAGER. I ENJOYED THE VIDEO, IT GETS MY ADRENALINE PUMPING. BTW WHAT HAPPENED TO THE RIGHT SIDE MIRROR, MAYBE A LITTLE TRACK SLIDE ?
Tipped it over in the driveway lol
Tremendo piloto de motoras con esa motora tan pesada haciendo maravillas.Increible!!!!!
Nice riding
Is the camera bobbing from the wind or track surface? I'm asking because I am in Houston and wouldn't mind trying this track out.
A bit of both and also due to suspension. The comfy suspension on the Concours tends to wallow a bit over imperfections especially when accelerating.
@@Mario-ox1wc Good to know. I just got a used 2009. The guy I got it from had it set up full stiff (damping on max spring on max). I fixed that so it absorbs imperfections in the road instead of ricocheting off them, but that wallow on full acceleration is still there. I thought my bushings were toast. Sounds like theses bikes just do that.
The Kawasaki doesn't have a lot of electronics.. But it does have a lot of speed! Especially considering a drive shaft bike ...10.8 1/4 mile! 167 top speed.
A cycle mag has one tested at 10.56 at 129 I think.
They handle like a sportbike 100 percent, im buying another brand new left over 2018 tomorrow, these are great bikes, my 08 concours had like 70,000 miles on it & still ran great, they were hard miles....
Todd Jacobs I just bought a 2019 leftover for 12300.00 out the door.
What repairs did you have to do to it?
@@noahdunaway is that 12300 pounds or dollars? I got a 2019 out the door for 14900 dollars and I thought it was a good deal.
@@heathmurtagh7728 dollars, I said out the door because I paid cash fort it but I did have pay almost a thousand in tax.
@@billyjack8119 none it was brand new on the show room floor. The 2020 models had been out for months.
I would love to run a track with you on my r1200rt. I was between the concours and the r1200rt until I rode them back to back in the I now have Just under 45000 miles and I am still very happy with my torque monster. My BMW still cranks wheelies like it did with ten miles I love it. I had been riding Kawasaki bikes from the age of 7 I will probably end up getting another after I get tired if the BMW I traded my 07 zx10r on my BMW. I only mad that choice because riding to Maine from nj wasn't fun for my back once I got to be 30 after I went from NY to flordia and back I decided the zx10r needs to be replaced with a sport touring bike. If anyone reads this ever please go ride a boxer engine BMW you will smile be ready to buy. Once the aftermarket goes crazy on the concours 14 I may get one as either as a replacement or just a second bike well a second touring bike lol I have 7 total now
@akathenhnic, I hope you ride better than you type!
love it
Three local motorcyclists reported dead in suicide pact. Friends of the deceased say they never recovered after being humiliated by a motorcycle known only as "The Silent Assassin." They request that out of respect, no GTR-14 riders bring their motorcycles to the funeral services.
The big girl can shift....
I've a '14 c14 new, zero problems, has saved my sorry ass many occasions, ill never use all its capabilities. ...thou, who can't go full out in a straight line, its fast.
I was thinking of buying one...now I know I definitely should 😂
I have the same bike and I know how fast they are... never thought of trying one on a track, but it looks like it was faster than those slowpokes who wouldn't get out of the way there. Great riding on your part too... nice vid.
Yeah, Yeah, where was the Stoppie ? you mean when the guy in front of you slowed down really fast and you just about meet his rear brake lights for a second? other than that, Looked like a Great Ride... I'm sure everyone wanted to go Faster but looked like a good ride around town.
Just seeing the video now, (2018) what a ride, what type Suzuki 600, 750, 1000?? Did you get injured, you definitely been RockN it!!
WoW!!, I have a 2014 Concours 14 and tooo seeeee this is mind Blowing. This rider is bad ass, the first few minutes were kind of boring like something was wrong, then this guy just turns it on and goes PRO!! Freakin BADASS, I'm a instant Fan. Enjoyed the video and laughed at the end how you just shadow that guy when you could have easily jetted by. Really Good Video.
