Thanks for posting, overall nice video. Sorry, but I like the glove box in the middle on my 2008 Connie, there's a lot of room in there and for my daily short commutes, I like it for gloves and garage door opener, cellphone, etc.. I don't need it when my tank bag is on, but I'm glad its in the middle when the tank bag is off. And for the key fobs, you ONLY get one for the 2010. Wow, lose that and you are out of luck. Mirrors repositioned, probably the only thing I like about the 2010.
Great bike until you lose a pannier like I and other riders have around the world, try and talk to Kawasaki about it and they don't want to know you, I will be going back to Honda or Yamaha
seat height is too high for me @(32.1"), i wish honda,yamaha,suzuki and kawasaki can Design a seat that has a ("REMOVABLE PADDED DRIVER SEAT" that has a heigh of 25" to 32" to accomodate short legged people. sales of this bike is only limited to medium to tall riders. short people won't be able to buy these high seat motorcycles. i hope these manufacturers rethink and design about the high seats to accomodate all even the short legged people.
I can't wait for it either! I had issues with the mirrors, glovebox, fairing, and windshield of the 2009 model, all of which they fixed. This is definitely going to be my next bike!
It looks like Kawasaki has turned an impressive machine into a more comfortable sport touring bike. Has anybody seen the bike in person? How is the new color! I cant wait for the bike to come out!!!

@hondast1300a w What do you mean with that? You lost a saddle bag and they didn't have it to sell?

up2uni: thanks to your suggestions. the comfortable seat for me is around 26'5" to 27.5".
i love to have one of these sport touring bikes.
unfortunately i can't reach the seat; it's too high.
low touring cruisers are the only one's that fits me well. i'm only five four :.(

You should talk to your dealer about having the bike "lowered".
My dealer told me this can be done for about $300.00 to $400.00. And it drops seat height around 2"

I was shocked kawasaki made the changes they did, it's exactly what needed to be done. Great bike.
