3 recalls across 1 model year
The Kawasaki Concours 14 ABS has 3 recalls, all affecting the 2008 model year, with the most serious being a rear carrier platform that can break and detach from the motorcycle when a passenger leans against luggage mounted on the Kawasaki Genuine Accessory Luggage System, creating a crash risk.
A separate brake concern on 2008 models involves small stones or road debris becoming trapped between the brake pedal and its cover, which can cause the rear brake to drag and overheat rather than release cleanly. There is also a saddlebag latch issue on 2008 models where the pivot pin securing each saddlebag can break if the bag takes a sideways load, such as when the motorcycle tips over while parked or if a bag is not properly attached, potentially allowing a saddlebag to separate from the bike.
