My new 2009 Kawasaki Concours 14

    The range/sensitivity is so bad for the money that a few weeks ago i put my r4 on the rear windshield and my max on the front ..i tested it several times and approaching the ka band cop that both detectors went off at the same time..my r4 is as sensitive on the rear as the max is on the front...i tested the same thing with the 9500 on the front and it was the same..if i was a lawyer i would get back half of the price of the max for everyone that bought one since 2012..it was a 250 dollar detector

    • @lancelemay6971
      @lancelemay6971 Місяць тому

      Kawasaki recommends in the owners manual putting spools / bobbins on the swingarm only when in use. They say they can cause swingarm / muffler damage if left on the bike. I use the standard lift padded pins on a Pitbull stand (everything else is a toy in comparison). The standard lift pins work great with the Pitbull stand because of the way the swingarm is constructed. I butt the pins up to the circular point on the swingarm (where spools would thread in) and it just so happens a natural cavity exists here because there’s a welding bead a finger width behind that circular part of the swingarm. A perfect secure fit for the Pitbull pins - it’s solid as a rock and so easy to lift. If the swingarm were angled more steeply like some other bikes I wouldn’t use this method but the Z900RS swingarm is almost parallel to the ground.
