I've been trying to get hold of a new GTR but have been told that there are only 2 left in Kawaski UK and that's it!!! (Apparently the Police have had them all)

THEN, I was told that there may be a new GTR announced at the show next week, anyone heard anything?

if a new GTR was to be launched next week there would have been planty of stuff on the net all summer ( like the forth coming H2 engine)

maybe a colour change but cant imagine much more than that!

The GTR and the versys have not been announced yet. Rumors about the versys are all over the internet. The GTR has no information yet.

The GTR is showing its age now and in my opinion is desperately in need of a substantial update  :yes:

I agree. I'm sure we'll be back in the sports-tourer market at some point and a GTR would be Lyn's first choice. We really enjoyed the two we had but it would have to be updated and a revision made to the stupid service intervals before I'd consider another one.

Whats wrong with 8000 mile service intervals? Every 3rd ya do the valves & sparkplugs.

To maintain the warranty the service intervals are 3750 miles, not 8000.

Really?  The oil change interval is 7500 miles over here.  Spark plugs are the same but no one in their right mind does that unless they are masochists.  Valve clearances are 18000 miles.  My manual (08) doesn't show anything for 3750.  They have an initial check at 600 miles but then everything goes to 7500 mile increments.  Is it different in the UK?

According to the manual its 7500 miles after the initial 600 mile service. Attached the relevant part from the 2010 manual below
