Another FNG (Friendly New Guy)
05/25/15 3:48 PM

Good morning fellow ZX14R owners -

I have been admiring the ZX14R since it came out waiting for the right color...yes I am a die hard Kawasaki Racing Green nutjob...so this year I finally got my wish with a 2015 ZX14R ABS, granted not exactly race team colors - I have discovered it is not about that...the pure joy of riding my big Kwacker is what it is all about.
Thank you for the great discussion here and if you live in Minnesota/Wisconsin let's ride!

Semper Fi,

Bill

If you ever make it down to Milwaukee, give me a yell. I can show you a few roads.

I like to spend a little time around the LaCrosse area once in a while...lots of fun roads on both sides of the river over there.

Thanks for the great feedback -

Yes I know the 'alphabet' roads around LaCross!
A bit spoiled I can roll out of my driveway and be on the twistys of Western Wisconsin in 10 minutes!

S/F,

Bill

I'm way over in the southwestern corner of MN, I'll have to hit you up next time I wander over to your neck of the woods...though my bike is no longer as agile as it was was, I still like to put on the miles and explore western Wisconsin. Always find myself exploring new towns and places more than hitting the alphabet lol

Hi Nasty!

Yes ping when up this way - head 94 East to the Wisconsin border (don't cross) - take MN 95 North to Bayport and let's ride!
Got some very fun twisty roads over here (there) as I 'm in Japan until next Friday -

S/F,

Bill

I miss the days of the factory team colored bikes. Especially Kaw's green with colors mixed in. The green with white & blue, or green with purple and other colors...classic stuff.

Good morning Gents;

Thank you for the feedback!
@Rook - Oh yes, despite significant jet lag still able to take my baby out and enjoy her - she is so smooth, a mature, beast that is so fluid and yet demanding - now at 2K miles!

@billy500 - Thank you -

@VicThing Yes I kept holding off actually waiting for Kawasaki to produce a Kawasaki Racing version of the ZX14R...even quizzing the Kawasaki reps at the annual motorcycle show - one pretty young thing actually asked me why I would want in Kawasaki racing green (major eye roll)...I sent an e-mail to Kawasaki HQ asking when...
Granted Jonathon Rea and Tom Sykes are dominating World SuperBike on black and somewhat green Kawasaki's my heart still longs for the colors of 2003 ZX12R...
So this year my wife said go buy one if it'll make you happy...I'm ecstatic!
