Kawasaki GTR (Concours), ZG

Coolant capacity & service interval

Kawasaki GTR (Concours) and ZG models utilize coolant with a capacity range of 3,1 to 3,4 liters. Service intervals include checking at 12000 km or 12 months, and changing at 30000 km or 24 months and 36000 km or 36 months. The data covers 5 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The Kawasaki GTR 1000 / Concours ZG1000 carries a cooling system capacity of 3.1 liters across all listed model years from 1986 through 2006, spanning three distinct variant designations: A1 through A3, A5 through A14, and A15 through A20/A6F.
  • The GTR 1400 / Concours 14 ZG1400 uses a 3.4-liter cooling system capacity, which is 0.3 liters greater than the ZG1000 specification.
  • The ZG1000 cooling system service interval under normal use conditions is set at 30,000 km or 24 months, whichever comes first, and applies uniformly across the 1986-2006 production range.
  • The ZG1400 extends the coolant change interval to 36,000 km or 36 months under normal use conditions, representing a longer service cycle than the ZG1000 specification.
  • The ZG1400 from 2011 onward introduces a coolant level check interval of 12,000 km or 12 months, a specification not present in the 2008-2010 ZG1400 data. The change interval of 36,000 km or 36 months remains the same between both ZG1400 entries.
  • The 3.1-liter figure for the ZG1000 reflects the total cooling system fill capacity, meaning the volume required to fully replenish the system during a complete drain and refill service rather than a partial top-up.
