Locating aftermarket parts?
Tinted screens, sliders, lic. plate relocators, foot pegs and rearsets, lowering links, bar riser kits, brake lines, etc....
Has anyone have any idea who actually has parts in stock for it ?
I found LP has alot of stuff listed, but stock on hand is limited, or non existant?
PC3 yet?
sprokets front and rear?
Has anyone ordered parts, and recieved them yet?

Let me know if you find a double bubble iridium tinted screen.
I think that until someone besides Jay gets a bike the parts will be slow in showing up. Check on Schnitz racing.
http://www.schnitzracing.com/Online_Catalog.htm
it does not list the availability so it might be more of the same.
The Power Commander for the 14 was listed as being "available sometime 2006".

I think I would have a hard time buying parts for a bike that I do not have and do not know when or if I will have. Guess you could mount them on the wall or sell them to Leno. Kinda like paying a dealer 11k two months ago, just to make sure he has spending money.

I can see where Easy's coming from. Shouldn't that be pre-market parts, since nobody has a ZX14 yet ?

I inquired about a Puig double bubble. This is the response I got "you are looking at a substantial wait time for this bike screen. This ZX14 is not one of the more popular models and all the manufactures are making the new 06 stuff according to demand requirements. There is not that much demand out there for this bike especially since it's not in Europe so Puig is very slow going at it. My supplier says a rough estimate would be late June/July time".

Thanks for the info!! These guys are advertising the screen for the 14 on e-bay lumped in with the 12. I'm happy that you gave me the inside scoop. I'll bet LP will have something out soon.

if and when i get my 14, i'm going to used either my myrtlewest 3-9 extended zx12 swingarm
or my Mcintosh 6' over racing swingarm, running a metzeler me880 xxl 210/50vr-17 tire
until i send my stock zx14 swingarm off, to get the wide tire treatment, of course extended
with a set of P.M. Holigans or Eldog's. clean but classy!!!!

Now why would you put a 250 , 300, or 330 tire on this bike.
Good tires for Harleys.
Hardley's already handle slow, are slow , and are built for show.
Those big tire kits look cool, but slow down the bike and its handling.
Oh well different strokes.
Make sure you send pics.
I like art!
