Title: 2008 C14 FOR SALE - MUST SELL
Post by: Barry on June 27, 2015, 05:35:28 AM
Want a KTM 950 SM that I found a buddy is selling.  This wonderful bike has to go.  2nd owner, clear title.

2008 Kawasaki Concours 1400

Details

Almost 45K miles - EDIT - 47K, my mistake.  Kill me.
All service done on time - believe I have all records from original owner as well as my records.
Factory manual
Titanium Silver
ABS
6 speed
Factory hard bags
Shad top case
Shaft drive
5 position OEM clutch and brake levers
Trip computer
non locking on tank storage
40+ MPG average
Tank replaced under warranty for known rust issue.  New tank sealed by me upon install, no rust, no worries.
Reflective tape on bags
PIN mod to bags, they can NOT fall off, still quick release.
3 windscreens, OEM, OEM cut 6" and painted black, and aftermarket tall.
Nearly new Pilot Road III tires, 190 rear for better handling.
Area P full exhaust
Power Commander V with wide band 02 sensor, laptop programmable
Secondary throttle bodies removed, huge bottom end improvement.
throttle tamer throttle tube, no on/off feel.
Shifter has roller bearing in place of OEM plastic bushing for improved feel.
Honda ST 1100 heated grips with 4 setting touch control.
Radiator screen to protect the radiator
Wind deflectors for your hands.
Powerlet added to the on tank storage.

The Bad

Left inner top dash panel is cracked on one edge by the screw.  The cam chain tensioner gasket is weeping, it is a known issue. 

I got the bike from a engineer with 7K on the odometer, and it has been flawless ever since. I just don't take trips on it anymore, so I want a lighter v-twin to hooligan around on.  Bike pulls extremely hard, I believe I have a dyno sheet showing it makes 150hp at the wheel.  Throttle is far crisper than stock, and this bike pulls in 6th like a stock C14 pulls in 4th.  This bike will NOT disappoint.

I am a very motivated seller, I found a bike I want to buy from a buddy.  Asking $5750 OBO.  I will take more pics and post them later.  Fly and rides can be accommodated, no worries.  Please ping me with questions via text or call at 540.287.2690.

Bike is in 22405 in Fredericksburg, Va., 15 minutes from Quantico.  Clear title in hand.

Thanks,
Barry

Full disclosure, these are not super recent, but represent the condition of the bike, I have to take new pics... will swap out pics ASAP.

I'd buy it (only live about 20 miles away) but I already have one.  Good luck with the sale.

You guys are funny.  Believe me, I do not want to sell this bike, but I'm not riding it.  Love the bike.  No way I can justify keeping it, and buying another large-ish street bike.  If I were riding this one, I'd add the next one to the stable.  I'm not.  Pains me to sell it, but it also pains me to not ride it.

VA Jim, you need 2 C14s.  Get some.

"VA Jim, you need 2 C14s.  Get some"



I totally agree.................you can not have to many C14 / 14GTR in your life............. :chugbeer: :chugbeer: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: :thumbs: :thumbs:

If you were closer I'd be up for acquiring the fastest model in the fastest colour with the go faster kit already fitted and sorted  :thumbs: :chugbeer:
