Nearly 100k Kawasaki Concours 14! How good is it? 

I searched high and low for high mileage concourse 14 and the highest one I found was like 41000.dont know where you saw all of these 200,000 mile examples.

I've got one with 85,000 Mi on it runs like a top !!!!!! ​@@billbonu1639

@@billbonu1639 They're out there. I've seen pictures of them with 350k miles on the enthusiast group on FB

My 2015 bike doesn't

@@martincornish3179 strange, yet even the one on this video does it, i think it also has something to do with the oil draining from the filter , so while the pressure builds up,mine does it sometimes yes, sometimes no, alas mine is a 2008, maybe they fixed it in later models, i can see it scaring riders that do not know what is going on

have a 2014 c14. does it when its on the side stand down. But now I know what it is. Thanks.

Its the cam chain that rattles a little at first. When I park using the center stand it doesn't do it. I have an 09 with 40K miles. It's a great bike.

Just needs a manual cam chain tensioner fitted to cure the sound in start up!

Cheap Chokko I’ve bought one 2017 model. It’s a brilliant motorcycle very reliable & trouble free. If you go to the COG forums there’s everything you want to know there. Ride safe whatever you decide to go with.

@@brandonprice3566 Both are great bikes and a good choice.

She can ride with you ..... in the car lol

all connies do this , it is the timing chain adjusting itself. they only do it when cold

@@ROrneli one of my friends has one and I've never heard it do that

@@thedude102878 then maybe something is wrong with his ! lol

I know someone with a Connie that has 300,000+ miles on it. Not KM. He did have the timing adjuster chain replaced at 200,000 miles, but it was under warranty.

@@ROrneli absolutele nonsense....

Ed, sorry for the delayed response. We don't check the comments on the channel very often. We aren't going to be doing any repairs to this bike. To be honest, the amount of labor that would be charged would would make this too expensive compared to other used Concours out there. It takes a lot of time to get all of the plastics, gas tank, etc off to access the valve cover. By the time you are all the way in there, might as well check the valves. This is the perfect bike for a handy individual who doesn't mind doing the work.

How is bike now?

I have a 2010 with 75,000

this is my question too. I heard for some one who is been riding it for long, that you don't feel a tiny bit of air on your body or legs. So I started to like this bike since I live in sort of cold place.

The wind isn’t protected AT ALL! It is just split in two 😉

i am a fake harley person. I have yamaha which looks like harley, will last 3 times more, cost half the price. Not that I can not afford harley but it I have issues with how they name their bike 'fat boy'

it may have the American style cruiser look, but it sure was the first to incorporate disk brake, electric start and furl injection... every motorcycle company these days copy Japanese innovations and styling

I've had Harleys, Hondas, Kawasakis, and Yamahas. Like any other brand you have to know which models/engines are good and which ones are turds. From my experience I would trust an Evo Sportster engine as much as any Japanese bike. The big twin Harley's not so much.
