change of colour

[kwakatlast]

Deal was finalised  today on my GTR, was due to order a green one from another dealer as he said it was the only colour they could supply the GT pack with. Was happy with that till I popped into another dealer on my way to work on Saturday, and saw a GTR in "candy red". Gonna have to bash the overtime to pay the extra, but have got a good deal and the bonus of the GT pack included.    The deal clincher though was the salesman saying red was the fastest colour    Now to tell the mrs how much

Shocking! They'll tell you any  to get a sale.

    worked on me though

You don't see many candy red ones, the green ones are as common as muck to be honest. You've gone for the best deal.

What is the "GT Pack" ??

It is a Kawasaki UK offer.
When I bought mine last year, it was SatNav mount, pannier inner bags, top box, clear film body protection on panniers and tank. For the same price as a regular GTR

wash you mouth out with soap and water 

The Candy red is a great colour, but not the fastest

I was able to negotiate as Doebag did. Albeit without the clear film protection. I got an external cover for it as well. I have used that once in the garage...  Also got body colour top case thingy and those plastic tank protector wotsits...

Candy red isn't available in the UK. I'm sure it was a USA only colour.

Arabian red is what we have in the UK

Candy Arabian Red to be precise 

Either way its nice

Millenium motorcycles in Saint Helens has a candy red one on the shop floor right now, and they pulling mine in from somewhere with the pack on. Hope it looks as good in the sunlight has it does under the shop lights     The American thing is interesting as it comes up on the internet as a concours when looking at the colour on there. Shall check today it is full UK bike or its this  for the saleman    Am i wrong to presume it would be?

Our Yankee cousins call the GTR a Concourse

I reckon the colour will look just as good if not better in the sunlight 

[Boomer]

It's not a Concourse  it's the Kawasaki Concours 14.

Concours 14 Candy Arabian Red (2012 colour)


1400GTR Candy Arabian Red (2012 Colour)


Yep, the same thing, apart from the sunshine.

This is the only other Red used for the Concours 14. I believe it was a 2009 colour for the USA.

Hello Mr Kwakatlast .... !!
Clearly green is the bestest ever colour but that Candy Red ......... Nice ........ Bash that O/T, it will all be worth it 

[kwakatlast]

Cheers guys! To be honest, doesn't seem to be bad colour with this bike. Had a call from the bike shop at 6pm this evening to say my bike had been delivered today  then after showing child like excitement he told me it can't be pdi'd till next tuesday      sure I heard a giggle on the other end
