New GTR for 2015?

[O.C.]

I think Geoff is correct ...no rumours about any GTR improvements, although it could still be a 'best kept secret'

But plenty talk about a new H2..which looks like a 3 cylinder...wooohoo ~ brilliant

It also seems to boast plenty aerodynamic features

It'd be interesting to see what the sales figures are for the GTR in the UK. Last time I spoke to a dealer, he stated that they weren't selling as well as expected. As its Kawasaki's flagship touring model that pretty much wipes the floor with the other brands (IMO), they badly need to update the spec

I'm looking deep into the coffee-grounds and my prediction is:

There will be an update on the GTR. 

And the moon is probably made of mayonnaise.....

Who knows what evil lurks in the heart of KHI?  The SHADOW do.... And it seems that the SHADOW is the only one who do. . .

Hopefully next week we will all find out.   Both the US and Europe sites are still showing the '14 version of the 14/1400.  It's all about the H2.  I'm old and remember when the H1 500 was introduced.  A room mate had a new '69 H1 500.  Scary quick, for sure....It lived on the rear wheel....

Yep, nothing like the sound of a 2 stroke triple, whether at idle or WFO.  Fun time memories, for sure. . .

You were lucky you didn't get killed riding at those speeds on the wrong side of the road!

Not me in the video, but that's how it's done, on the right side, here in the Colonies.  Don't believe we ever had jousting tournaments here. . .

KH500 was a nice bike...I've had a 'few' Triples but never owned a KH500, although one exactly like that has lived in my Rev Shed for 3 years until last week  The S3a (400) rode better than most other Triples of the day

I loved my H2c most of all and don't usually miss an opportunity to post a picture, so here's one for ya

InterMOT tomorrow so we should know one way or the other.
Not that I can afford a new GTR.

I've just been looking at the Super Tenere 2014 model. If there wasn't an upgrade to the GTR I'd be seriously tempted to go for the Tenere in the meanwhile.

Just checked the Australian and Japanese Kawi sites and no H2 or '15 GTR1400 listed yet.  Guess they have to wait for the InterMOT, even being ahead in time.

Its a nice bike, but I sure can't do the same mileage on these Adventure bikes that I can on the GTR and FJR for some reason, the riding position just doesn't suit me for a long haul, I like to be forward leaning, slightly or even leaning slightly forward !
