You already know KHI builds machines that move
people. But, did you know it also builds machines
that move thousands of people—all at once? We’re
talking trains here. From New York City subway cars
to Japan’s hyper-speed bullet trains, Kawasaki has
been in the business since 1906. Whether a 186-mph
bullet train or a 1,043cc Z1000 motorcycle, KHI likes
to believe that the technology that goes into moving
thousands of people has a positive influence on how
it goes about moving just one.
With over 130 years of Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd. (KHI) engineering building the heaviest, most durable and complex machines
on the planet, Kawasaki STRONG is a name we can claim. KHI builds tunnel-boring machines that connect continents and trains that
carry millions of New Yorkers in and out of the city 24 hours a day, seven days a week. From these engineering monsters to the last
bolt on the Versys® 1000 LT, KHI engineering says, over and over: Use me. Rely on me. I’m built to ride.
Since KHI built its first motorcycle engine in 1953,
it has never stopped pushing technology to arm
riders with what they need to dominate the streets.
Advanced engineering, exhaustive testing and
tireless passion go into every motorcycle every time
rubber hits the road. From industry-first features to
the features that have evolved over a long history,
KHI’s innovations will never stop feeding the
insatiable appetites of riders around the world.
BULLET TRAINS MOTORCYCLE ENGINES ROBOTICS
If robots are the future, then KHI has been shaping
it since 1969 when the company built its first
industrial robot. KHI continues to be a leader in
the development of robots for a diverse number of
processes including assembly, handling, welding,
painting and sealing. Kawasaki robot technology is
being used every day to manufacture motorcycles
and other products.

The voracious power of the Z1000 ABS motorcycle calls for an aggressive chassis, starting with an advanced aluminum frame similar to the Ninja® ZX™-10R
superbike. Its design keeps the rider interface narrow for a direct feel to the bike and a responsive chassis. The Showa Separate Function Fork-Big Piston (SFF-BP)
handles front-end suspension. The sophisticated design features preload adjustability in the left tube while the right houses damping pistons and adjustability. The
signature Big Piston ensures smooth action in the initial stroke and excellent feel during heavy braking for increased stability. A horizontal back-link shock and
compact subframe at the rear of the Z1000 ABS help further centralize mass and complement the naked styling element.
AGGRESSIVE CHASSIS
Metallic Matte Graphite Gray/Golden Blazed Green
In keeping with the naked aggressive appearance of the
Z1000 ABS, the digital instrumentation is as compact
yet visible as possible, giving the rider a wide �eld of
vision. The dual-element bar-graph tachometer displays
up to 4,000 rpm along the left edge of the lower LCD,
while the LED tachometer in the upper display takes
over above 4,000 rpm. LCD functions also include a
speedometer, odometer, dual trip meter, clock and fuel
consumption readings.
CONTROL
World-class stopping power comes from twin 310mm petal-style front rotors and machined aluminum
four-piston calipers. Superb feel comes from the race-spec radial-pump master cylinder, which offers
progressive, yet controlled braking performance. Combined with a rear single-piston 250mm petal
disc and standard ABS, smooth and controlled stops can help provide con�dence.

SHAFT DRIVE
Based on the 1,352cc inline four-cylinder engine of the 2015 Ninja ZX-14R, the Concours14 ABS produces a wide
range of smooth-revving power. The intelligent VVT system alters the camshaft valve timing for even greater power in
the low end and mid-range without sacri�cing any of the impressive top-end performance of the Concours14 ABS.
Digital Fuel Injection (DFI®), a dual throttle-valve system and Fuel Economy Assistance Mode ensure an ef�cient ride
while the compact engine design minimizes weight and maximizes agility.
The Concours14 ABS puts power to the rear wheel through a sophisticated and low-maintenance shaft drive
system. The squatting and lifting effect of the shaft drive are countered by an ef�cient four-link Tetra-Lever rear
suspension system. This system also signi�cantly reduces driveline lash, meaning that a powerful thrust of
acceleration will remain sportbike smooth aboard the Concours14 ABS.
Does the idea of supersport performance with all-day comfort seem like an utter contradiction? It
might seem impossible until you meet the Kawasaki Concours®14 ABS motorcycle. Kawasaki’s sport-
touring powerhouse gets the soul of a Ninja® ZX™-14R sportbike and the sophistication of advanced
technology and premium accessories for the ultimate sport touring experience. Built around the thrilling
performance of a powerful 1,352cc supersport engine, the Concours14 ABS is loaded with top-shelf
re�nements such as the K-ACT ABS, KTRC and Variable Valve Timing (VVT) for a powerful and luxurious
ride capable of commanding the open road.
