Help Develop Laminar LIP for ZX-14
I sent an e-mail to the folks at Laminar who manufacture the Laminar LIP asking them if they had a model for the ZX-14. They stated that they were looking for a -14 to use for measurements and a fit/test check. I don't believe the process would require leaving the bike.
A "free" LIP for would go to the -14 owner for helping the company develop the product.
Their location is : Laminar LLC
2612 Croddy Way, Unit E
Santa Ana, CA 92704
Toll free - 866-540-5679
If you live in So. California, give them a call and arrange a time when you can drop by.

Check out http://www.laminarlip.com/
Unit helps those riders who like to do sports touring with less airflow, helmet buffet, and noise. Also gives passengers a better experience.
Not really for those who always like to "push the envelope."

If it was removable, I would use it on the highway until I reach my destination.
North of Edmonton all we have is mosquitoes, black flies, moose and muskeg.
No one to impress on the highway here.
Even the girls .............. he heh,.............. maybe I won't go there!
If it is practicle and works to keep bugs, rain and wind blast off me for even the first 4 hrs of my ride, then the better it would be!

If you'd wash those skanky pits you wouldn't be pulling the moose in like that!

Try a double bubble screen, it doesn't look dorky. The centre is raised just enough to deflect some of the air over the rider without ruining the look of the bike.
Fitted one to my Hayabusa and it made a huge improvement to comfort, especially in cold weather.
