I was at WFO checking out the new Black ZX10... I really like that bike with the burgundy rims, except for the flames. IMO, the flame job looked worse in person since its all pin-striping... On the plus side, that bike would look sick once you easily remove the flames in all black with burgundy rims...

There was once a time when I used to go to the lot, but I guess I have grown up and matured not only within myself but also my riding

It just seems like that paint-job is ment to inspire sub-18 year-olds...who think a Busa is the the badest thing on two wheels
I only been to the lot once or twice at the most.I think twice.

Yes,they go there to bullshit.I went there to look at other bikes,meet with a few more people.Then ride for the rest of the night.

Everyone has diffrent riding scheduals,so I try to ride when I can.

I think forgot you rode in a group I was in that went to QSL one time.Your dad was not there.

Im glad Kawisaki is NOT making all thier bikes look the same.
So what if no one likes the paint scheme,theres what.. 3 others to choose from for the 07?

Its not like you are picking a bike,that the other 4 colors have the same graphics on them.Just in diffrent colors.

Howeve I like the new paint sheme on the 14, I saw it in person the other day in Georgia.... like everything it looks better in person than on the internet.


I still wouldnt own one because its too much for what i like doing, cant carve corners on a 600 lb bike.
When I saw the bike in the first smaller pic.I liked it.But when I saw the bigger pics,it kinda grew out fast..

I dont like it how the made it to try to look like ghost flames.
They should have made it solid.

But what i have noticed,is since Kawi came out with the red wheels like on my bike.

They now have a 07 ZX6R and now the ZX14, and someone said ZX10 with the wheels.So it must be selling.

don't be dumb about shit... the lot is bullshit.
Im not going to stereo type the people who go to the lot.
Cause,
1)I only been there a few times,and I didnt leave with a big croud or follow anyone I didnt go up there with.So I dont know what they do afterwards.

2)The times I did go by up there,I met with friends to go on a ride in the night.
Which
A)Ended up at Green Iguana in Tampa.
B)Ended up at a place to eat in Tampa.

I have also been invited there with an older croud 40+ to just meet and get something to eat afterwards.

So from my experiance on this place is not a bad one.
Should I not "defend riding thru the city like a jackass?" anyless than the same people riding through residentual neighborhoods like they are at the Isle de Man?Every dam Sunday at that?

same thing with my bike,when I get tired of them.Im just going to repaint the bike the stock color.

I just have to sand down the gas tank since they are clearcoated.
But what I like the most is that I dont have any gold anodized stuff on my bike which is diffrent than others.Its red

Flames add horse power right?

I think the flames are a little too flashy for something thats already stereo-typed enough as it is.

I'm not a fan of the larger bikes, especially due to how they are used most of the time.

The Lot: it is what you make of it. I've been more then three times, seen more then two accidents/incidents, I go when friends are going - and usually ride two up for the occasion. It seems to be getting attraction from an older and younger crowd at the same side which is interesting to see.

ZX-14 is a monster, an ugly, go fast monster.

I actually saw one at Motorsports today,the guy was picking it up (Who currently rode Harleys)

It had 2 bro exhaust,which they try to put on ever dam bike coming out of that shop.

Its a limited edition.

I saw pics of the ZX10 with flames.I like it from the pics.The red wheels on black body is bad ass.
