Description
FEATURES
- The steel used in the EBC rotor blades is a special stainless blend with higher friction effect than normal heat treated stainless steel found on stock discs
- Boasts up to 10% improvement in friction effect improving brakes even further
- Weight of the X and XC series is reduced by 5-10% by using a 6 only button drive system on a lightweight alloy center hub, which once again grabs the lead over stock parts
- The SD-System uses a square sided rivet with many advantages
- The SD-System of square sided buttons means that the rotor can expand inwards and outwards unrestrained and that perfect rotor functionality is retained at any speed or load
- This extends the lifetime of the rotor and prevents distortion failures
- Keeps the rotor blades perfectly true and flat throughout their life cycle and technically the only reason for a rotor to need replacement will be impact damage or over a very extended number of miles possible rotor wear limits being exceeded
- This means that a rotor equipped with the EBC Brakes SD-System could last 5-10 times as long as a conventional rotor built with circular buttons
- The drive forces under braking are transmitted over a line contact on the square side of the button compared to the point contact of a circular button
- Two (2) Sets of Rotors Required

Vehicle Information
Kawasaki Concours 1000 Motorcycle - Street (1986-2006)
The Kawasaki Concours 1000, also known as the ZG1000 or GTR1000, was a prominent sport-touring motorcycle produced from 1986 to 2006. It was powered by a robust 997cc liquid-cooled, transverse in-line four-cylinder, DOHC, 16-valve engine, derived from the Ninja 1000R but detuned for touring comfort. This model was offered as a single dedicated sport-tourer throughout its production, featuring a full fairing, shaft drive, and standard removable hard luggage. While the core engine remained consistent, the Concours 1000 underwent significant updates. Minor adjustments were made in 1987, including raised handlebars and larger front brake discs (280mm from 1987-1993). The most substantial redesign occurred in 1994, introducing a wider front wheel, upgraded front brakes with two-piston calipers and 300mm floating rotors, a redesigned seat and instrument cluster (from the Ninja ZX11), and a new fork assembly with spring preload adjusters. The fairing panels were also restyled. These 1994 changes defined the model until the end of its production in 2006, when it was succeeded by the Concours 14.

Maintenance
| Component | Interval | Details |
| Engine Oil and Oil Filter | Every 12,000 km or 1 year | Whichever comes first. Some owners opt for more frequent changes, such as every 8,000 km, especially with conventional oil or under demanding conditions. |
| Spark Plugs | Every 12,000 km | Iridium spark plugs can last significantly longer (up to 37,000 to 48,000 km) and are often replaced during valve adjustments due to the involved access procedure. |
| Air Filter | Every 18,000 km | More frequent inspection and replacement may be necessary in dusty or polluted environments. |
| Coolant | Every 2 years or every 3 years / 38,500 km | |
| Drive Belt | Not applicable | The Kawasaki Concours 1000 uses a shaft drive system, not a belt drive. |
