Wow ZX14?? Never really heard of it much less a look at it.
Anyway what's the tank bra for? To protect the tank? It looks rather nice though, the bike looks so "soft" with the tank bra.

that's $130 gone
i want to get it just to put my bag, but i heard that the bag will block the movement of the handlebar on the FJR -
1400cc from kawasaki, never heard of it because i think that the advertising done by kawa on the bike is quite small.Originally posted by technoboy:Wow ZX14?? Never really heard of it much less a look at it.

the tank bra is to help protect your tank at the same time u can clip bags on it.
but u gotta get the bag which is another $100-200.
most people get it for cosmetic purposes, i got the tank bra for my previous bike for more storage space, and i get to lean on the bag when i get tired while touring -
I think most bags will block the movement of the handlebar on almost any bike that needs to do sharp movements. Like when you need to do u-turns or reverse park a bike.Originally posted by kopiosatu:i want to get it just to put my bag, but i heard that the bag will block the movement of the handlebar on the FJR
There's a friend who brought in a storeroom full of bags, from tank/tail to Side Saddle bags from Australia, the brand is 'GearSack'. And he is clearing his stock, you want some?
I think I know who is the the one with a zx14, think that boy is with Paya Lebar Airbase, can xiaop help confirm?[i] -
heheOriginally posted by viciouskitty74:Ermmm.....hayabusa is kinda no longer the fastest production bike for like 2 years now.
The fastest now is actually the Kawa ZX14.
I understand there is currently only 2 in Singapore? One was rejected for LTA approval.
i know la
but it`s not really affordable mahz..
the price so high, spare parts also no have much to boos of -
anyway thanks all of u guys and gals for ur valuable imput, i`ll seriously consider the FZ1....
but b4 i buy surely i`ll ask for a meet up with u all.. hahaha..

i love space -
hayabusa should be the most outstanding 1. i got a friend that says he choose hayabusa cause hayabusa is the only 1 with a original chinese word. the sound is sexy too. and i find that hayabusa is less common than r1.
-
hayabusa is like a taxi now, i see it everywhere.
unless someone gets the 2008 version -
K....
I msn-ned with that boy from airbase with the zx14, he tells me there is currently 3 zx14 on the road he knows of, because he met the owners, and theirs are newer then his. -
to me all rounder bike is vfr 800. no doubt i really loved it
blackbird is good too for the f**king stability while going at speeds above 250km/h.
no regrets -
vfr 800's price is steep for a 800.
i wouldn't pay that kind of money for a 800cc bike no matter how cool it looks. -
You guys talking about the new one? The ones used by the LTA?Originally posted by kopiosatu:vfr 800's price is steep for a 800.

i thought the ones used by LTA is the older model?Originally posted by viciouskitty74:You guys talking about the new one? The ones used by the LTA?
the vfr i'm referring to is the new ones and they cost almost as much as a hayabusa first hand.
now with the hayabusa 2008 out i dunno what's the price difference la
but at that time i was thinking, "wtf, i might as well pay a bit more and get a haya than a 800cc bike" -
Your 'a bit more' may be a lots of bits for some people leh.Originally posted by kopiosatu:"wtf, i might as well pay a bit more and get a haya than a 800cc bike"
Plus, above 1000cc, there is like additional fees hidden everywhere. -
to add on, if compare haya and vfr800, even though just "abit" more for pricing, but controlling that 1300cc machine should be quite tedious.. just my 2cts
anyay to each his own, hope TS made his choice soon. -
i kinda like the vfr though its is pretty steep, but if u want a all rounder this fits the bill, its been touted as track capable (please note capable, not superb) with a torquey v4 engine, able to be used as a tourer and it has killer looks with nice under seat exhuasts, comes with EFI and ABS. had a acquantance who sank in an additional 4 k for 2 OEM side boxes integrated with the bikes styling which can fit 2 full face helmets. and a full system aftermakret exhausts. but he mentioned the only complaint he had with the bike with the boxes that you cant squeeze through traffic.
and of course it is an pretty pricey bike for its CC, but it has alot of features. and V4 engine which is pretty rare
