mmm... was looking for a scale model gtr1400/concours worldwide...
did'n find anything... (anyone ??)
strange : 'brother' zzr1400 exists on scale model..
on the other hand ... instead off a 'gtr 1400 model' I really have found a 'kawasaki model' : http://www.flickr.com/photos/pthancock/3564058602/
:mfr_lol:
Admin for a forum, female bare thighs in uniform, yeah right, a likely story. :mfr_lol:
I have looked everywhere and couldn't find one. Found enough ZZR's tho..
Ive emailed Kawasaki UK to see if they know of a supplier who stocks them.
My wife tried to buy one for me as a Christmas prezzy but to no avail. I think Kawasaki merchandising are definitely missing a trick here. You'd think that there'd be lots of GTR stuff available for their "flagship" model.
The GTR is probably Kawasaki's "best kept secret", there are models for just about everything else, but no GTR ....that's a bit strange really :shocked:
Never was one for the GTR1000 neither, even after 21 years of production.
Somebody is missing a trick.
Will always be plenty of models of the ZZR as it's a "poster boy" bike, something a tourer will never be.

I'll take both ... Where do you order them.. And what oil do i need? :tt1:
UPDATE... :grin:
I have had a reply from Kawasaki UK... They said.......
Thank you for your email.
Having just researched the die cast models that we offered, it would appear as if we phased these out in 2008. One of the companies that we used is called Maisto. They are still around and can be found on this link:
http://www.maisto.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=139
I also carried out a google search and found a company in Oxford that do a 1400GTR model:
http://www.grandprixmodels.com/searchdetail.php?ref=MEA050&/MEA-kit-43-1:43-Kawasaki-1400GTR-model
I have provided both of these links purely for your information as they are strictly external to Kawasaki Motors UK.
Kind regards,

that maybe the case :yes: but if there's any :angry: boyfriends or husbands about this would possible mean :death: and a fast getway could mean the difference between breathing or not :yes: so the zzr would not only make them girls look :cool: it would most likely save your bacon as well :mfr_lol:
Found this one (model<2009). http://www.sportgoodies.fr/shop/en/motorbike/635-kawasaki-1400-gtr-vittel-tdf-scale-1-43.html
Out of stock... :sad:
And this one in stock. http://www.sportgoodies.fr/shop/en/motorbike/631-kawasaki-1400-gtr-security-regulation--scale-1-43.html
:mfr_lol: :mfr_lol:
Whoever made those models is less talented than my 7 year old nephew.
A drunk with some plasticine could do better.
