black must be limited
i went to two dealership today, and saw 3 blue zx-14. two at luke's in charleston s.c. and
one at velocity in summerville s.c. my salesman Doug said he was waiting for the kaw.
rep to come by to let him know when the black one would be in. i'm wondering if the black
zx-14 will be offered in limited quantities.
one salesman at velocity said buy the blue one and paint it black, i said, i normally paint my
bikes when i get it, but i said, not this one, i want mine black!!!!
sat on it, it feels pretty good, a little more weight than my 03 zx12r, but a lot less than my
cousin's 02 zzr1200.
Doug sound like this other guy and i are going to be on a bidding war for the first black one
that come in. he wants me to put a deposit on it tomorrow (to beat the other guy for the
black one) i told Doug forget that, i'll be in there to pay for it cash!!!
can't wait

All black here. I'm still waiting for a blue one. The black is by far the most popular color for the 14.

You're right Hagar Motorsports in Rock Hill, SC got a black one in today & told me over the phone that they would sell it for MSRP (out the door), then when I told them I was on my way to get it, suddenly they added $400.00 to that price for "freight & assembly". BULLSHIT!!! If you're going to quote a price, stick to it & don't get greedy. I had heard some bad things about those vultures before, but didn't believe it until now. BUYERS BEWARE!!!

Ya know, if you do not have a deposit on a bike you are going to have increasing difficulty getting a price close to MSRP. Riding season is in full swing and the bike sales are in full swing. The 14 is in very short supply. Draw your own conclusions. I would have pounced on it like a rabid pit bull.

I already have a deposit on the first one that comes in at another dealership, and I would rather wait for that one than to buy from a bunch of creeps!!! Besides, I am a true believer in the old saying "good things come to those who wait", and what I'm truly waiting for is a red one anyway. I was just getting desperate... you know how us women are... impatient as h#*@. That was a wake up call and a reminder to me that some things are worth waiting for.

If it sits for a few days they will give you a call back
Hager use to be one of the few dealers that had 'no fees' like "Lee's Kawasaki in Thomasville, NC"
I've bought a bike or two off Hager in the past but they don't advertise 'no fees' in the trader anymore
I'm really having a hard time swallowing ANY metric.bike for over $12K otd
I'm going to give my Credit.Union a shout to see what kind of motorcycle.rates they offer
For that kinda cheese I'd be tempted ta buy a FJR or add some more for another HOG
If I did'nt have my 'ole school' I'd be a little less patient
I plan on 'kickin some more tires' this weekend

once the hoopla dies down, you'll be able to pick one up in any color for MSRP o.t.d., so be
patience. if your waiting for a certain color, just wait, you've waited this long, it can't get any
worst. and for those crooked dealers out there, you know who you are, word of mouth goes
along way. we can make you or break you!!!!!
the bike game is a lifetime, and like me, there are bikers out there that have and are going to buy a gang of bikes. so don't let this one model make you lose your mind and try to beat
folks for the sake of greed. the same way you got in business, is the same way you stay in
business. we don't forget!!!!! Kawasaki are you listening!!!!! us Kawasakinz almost
jumped ship!!!! wink,wink SUZUKI get it!!!!!!
kz to gpz to12r now 14 can't wait!!!!
