2010 Kawasaki Concours 14


















Kawasaki has made some great changes to their top-shelf sport tourer, the Concours 14. Most notably, the Concours gains a complete traction control system, along with revamped fairings and a larger windscreen, and second-generation ABS.
It appears that the engineers over at the Green Machine were working overtime to update their biggest bike for the upcoming model year; while most other manufacturers were content to leave their motorcycles virtually unchanged, the Kawasaki also boasts heated grips, a fuel-economy management system, and a neater fit and finish compared to the outgoing model.



While the engine and power output remain unchanged, gas mileage improves significantly, as does the two-wheeler’s handling.

Concept : Porsche supercar design by Emil Baddal











Iranian designer Emil Baddal has blended some Zuffenhausen DNA with a sort of Veyron-esque profile for his Porsche concept. Baddal did not name the concept nor did he give out any details about the idea behind the creation of the Porsche project car which appears to be what we’d describe as a freestyle design exercise.
