For now, if you are just worried about stone chips on your ‘06 you could always cut-out a V-shape from a clear adhesive 3M sheet and place it behind the wheel/radiator area. I did this on my ‘05 in addition to my installed Fender Extenda. The ‘06 FJRs are already covered with a factory...

Wheaton, sounds like a great plan you have going on. I am planning to go to the STN & WV Ramble too…only difference is that I am leaving Tuesday 6/13 and heading straight there. Afterwards, I might even attend the Honda Hoot for a day and then come back home. I am playing the “POST” part by...

Well...BD if that's the case...give me the ZX-14 and throw on the bags! LOL

Try State Farm...it's a non-issue. They don't care if it's a Busa, ZX-14 or an FJR. They are all priced the same and classify by cc (at least in my area).

The GTR concept looks very promising & attractive in Trinibob‘s CW scan. Let’s hope they don’t castrate it in the power department and leave the base ZX-14 motor alone if it becomes reality. Personally, I would still be very happy with just the current ZX-14 to have the option of hard-bags &...

Okay...I'll play...*Less Weight*, More Power, HO Alt, Color Choice & a 6-speed. And…I am with 2WN, Halle Berry to take delivery. :D

Congrats. No doubt you made the right decision to go with the '04. Lighter, faster, better looking (IMHO) and cheaper.

You mean something like this… ...not like I am following this bike or anything. LOL ;)

TahoeBound, plan on taking your wallet when going to the stealership. LOL. So many things about the 14R are just so right. LOL. More interesting 14R tidbits I should have added above regarding the 14Rs fuel range: Early test drive reports have achieved 50 mpg (highway) with the 6-speed...

XLR8 that is Shweeeeeet! Plan on mounting a V-1 detector with that new bright yellow machine of yours. I think she's going to attract a lot of LEO attention. LOL. Congrats & enjoy the new ride. :thumbup:

BD, sorry dude but that is old news. It has been known for sometime now that ABS will only be offered in parts of Europe for ‘06. There is a *small* possibility (rumor) that in ‘07 ABS will be offered to the States…but I wouldn’t hold my breath. The center-stand is no doubt nice to have for...

Stu, nice eye candy! I expect to hear a full demonstration @ 2WTs. LOL. FJRPackman should have his D & Ds on too...looking forward to an acoustic battle of the FJRs! See ya soon.

BD, I too totally agree with your statement. That is the essence of the 14R and what Kawasaki evidentially had in mind when they designed it. This bike will be good at the strip as well as an all day comfort machine on the streets and be a great long distance touring weapon. The early reviews...

Great info Stu. I was at the Chicago show last weekend and loved the ergos on the 14R. Fit my 6‘.0” frame and long arms perfect; like this bike was almost tailored for me. Plenty of leg room and the stock seat is extremely comfortable (IMHO). The 14R fits me much better than the FJR (at...

A lot of great tips from everyone. I find it conducive to Fed X dirty laundry/any unwanted items halfway into my trip. Example: If I find a few souvenirs, I usually tell the clerk to send them home along with my dirty laundry.

Shhhhhweet! Great choice in the added eye candy! :dribble: Chics always look hot on supersports/R1s. Christ…it’s getting hot in here! LOL. So much for Fizzies.

That is one sexy beast Orangevale! :dribble: Nothing like having a scalpel to add to the stables. Cheers! :punk:

Sorry to hear about your tortuous saga and glad it was resolved. Heads up for future PDPs: When ordering in-person (deposit + written contract), sit down with your dealer and watch them enter you into the YDS (Yamaha Dealer System). If you order over the phone have the dealer send you a...

Mr.Repairman…thanks for the FZ-1 review BUT, this thread is useless without pics of hot ladies on Fizzies? :P LOL. Oh…impressive torque specs.

Update: a few weeks ago I ordered the Air Mesh Kevlar Pants. Shipment is scheduled at the end of April. This will be perfect when my riding season really starts to kick-off. Thanks again for all the good tips on this thread. I made sure they are tailored not to fit as over-pants (nice tip...
