Well said OC i totally agree, we voted to come out of Europe but most who voted out want to holiday there -  double standards??

What's going to stop peeps holidaying there? 😨
XJ600, VFR800, CBR1100, Varadero1000, CBR1100, STX1300, GTR1400 ?

'Tis merely a glitch, calm down the europhiles 😊

Quite right  :laugh:

After any divorce, you'll get a period of financial insercurity, 2nd biggest economy in europe and 5th biggest in the world, we'll be okay in the long run but it may be a long run.

Can't get me head around this!    :no:
So, the big K Co. has sorted the ZZR14 for Euro-4.................see http://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/new-bikes/2015/october/updated-kawasaki-zzr1400/
Quote -
"While getting the ZZR Euro4-compliant, Kawasaki have also given both models a bit of a refresh and spec boost."    Seems positive?

Surely it would be foolish for the lesser tuned GTR not to be engineered the same as basically using the same motor?    :undecided:

Thoughts or updates?

And as for Brexit, would it be financially any different if it went 'tother way? Who knows! 

Wait till Trump gets in......the whole planet will be f :censored: d then!      :gunsmilie:
Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

Snowy well put ... it could be down to European sales of the GTR .. as it's the less electronically advanced (Thank Gawd) of all the tourers .
It could be that the big K is going to go down the route of full lekky wot ever.
Time will tell ..all I can say is what I was told in VERY good faith  :smiley:

Understand fully Wook, like all companies the staff at the coal face are usually the last to know!
Think you done the right thing, if situations were different I'd be out for a new one, till then me '08 will still suffice...........still yet to find out what happens after 10k rpm, do the eyeballs come back to the front after a while?   :shocked:

Spot on Charlie - was in CMC Chesterfield yesterday and they tend to display the tourers in a section on their own. They have quite a few, a GTR was next to an FJR and an  RT1200 funnily enough i actually thought how well the GTR looked among the company either side.
