Switched over from my 1986 Kawasaki Concours to a 1994 that I'm in the process of restoring.
While the 94 has some minor improvements, very little changed on these bikes for a 20 year run-amazing for Japanese makes in those days. That's more a Harley-esque trait, doing very little to a model year after year after year. For nearly 12 years, the only change was colors, and before that the only major change was a front end upgrade in the early 90s-better forks, brake calipers with dual pistons instead of only one, and a better looking fender.
But my point is I rode the 1986 over 30,000 miles, so when after a few month break I got on the '94, it was like not changing anything. I was planning on taking it easy for a tank or two, but found I was riding along naturally and smoothly.
I'd appreciate your comments-have you owned two models of the same bike, or very similar, and was riding both of them this familiar?
In the wind or in the air,
Bur
