Kawasaki's large-capacity touring bike, the GTR1000 is a rather dated design, first introduced in 1986. The GTR's engine is a development of the GPZ1000RX sportsbike motor, itself derived from the GPZ900R. Producing almost 73kW (98bhp), this strong motor provides excellent performance, although the delivery is rather rewy. A six-speed gearbox drives through a maintenance-free shaft drive, and the engine breathes through 32mm (1.3in) carburettors and a four-into-two exhaust system. The chassis is a typical touring design. The conventional suspension is soft for comfort, and does allow a degree of wallow in fast corners, while the twin piston front brake calipers struggle to halt such a heavy machine.
