Firstly des welcome from the Lakes, I know you will enjoy this forum that is assuming you do buy a GTR.

I've had three GTRs 2008/9, 2010, & 2011 models and in between had a couple of BMWs which was a BIG mistake.

The cubby hole is now on the left fairing and it is better positioned and more practical to have it there

Why not look at the Kawasaki main site and compare the previous model specs, as I think this may be of interest/help you..here's a link

Where in the lakes mate I used to live in Cleator and Cleator Moor a while back. (Nottm originally)


I'm probably selling mine first so will be able to resist signing unless they give me a stupid offer on mine.

That is tho other thing, I'm not completly sold on the new look,
Hmm I thought the old ones had the cubby hole on the side too??

Hey that would be like my old RF600.

Is there  a power socket in there too?

I'm thinking of changing to something that SWMBO would consider coming on the back of and have been eying up the GTR.

I sat on a new one at the Scottish bike show but noticed that the great cubby hole at the front of the tank has dissapeared, why is this, I'm wondering wether to look out for an older one with the pocket or was there a very good reason for getting rid of it??

And before anyone asks it's a CB1000R I'm looking to change from.
