1998 Kawasaki ZG1000 Concourse, Affordable Sport Tour Bike!!! The Kawasaki ZG1000, known as Concours, is a 1000 cc, six speed, four cylinder, liquid-cooled sport touring motorcycle with shaft drive. The bike can reach speeds over 120 mph, It offers nimble handling and with its full fairing, tall screen, twin locking saddle bags, large 7.5 Gallon fuel capacity is suited to cross-country two-up touring. Kawasaki introduced the Concours in 1986, {this one is a 1998} based on their Ninja 900 and Ninja 1000R models. Key differences between the Ninja 1000R and the ZG1000 a touch smaller carburetors, less aggressively ramped cams, shaft drive, front and rear sub-frames, hard luggage, and full fairing. It was a sport bike that was by the factory converted to a Sport Touring bike. The Concours was introduced into the USA the year after the slightly faster BMW K100LT at less than two-thirds the price of the BMW machine. Both bikes were tested by the magazine Motorcyclist, which came out in favor of the Kawasaki concluding that it was "the most practical, useful and competent motorcycle made" and "superior to the BMW in almost every aspect imaginable. Those works were spoken by "Motorcycle" magazine!! We did replace the rear tire, and rear brakes, at the same time we did a complete service to it too. Its ready to ride!!! Each bike goes through rigorous inspection, cleaning and examination before we feel comfortable considering it a part of our inventory and available for sale. Once we are through with our thorough inspections and cleanings and the bike has been approved for sale, we photograph it from all angles.
