ZX-14 Ninja 2 - The Sequel After endless phone calls and dealing with insurance companies, banks, dealers, etc., the new bike is finally home!! It will still be a few more weeks untill I can ride it. I can install the frame sliders and the Scorpio Alarm system I bought for it while I mend.
Nice to see the blue beast back! Really, Geico Insurance was very good in the speed and professionalism that they handled this. They just put the new bike on the old policy so no rate increase.

Glad to hear that the process of getting a replacement was painless compared to loosing the old one.
Enjoy it! That blue is still beautiful...

FTS,
Glad to see your recovering well. Wow a new bike already, I'll bet there are guys on this site who waited four maybe five times as long to get their bike. Glad to hear your insurance company took good care of you.
I know around here 14's are everywhere in all colors. I should be kicking close to 15,000 miles on my 14 if those som-bitches would have been out in March. Oh Well, hey did you have an chance to buy your old one back?
Congrats again
Rob

I am glad that you were able to find, and receive another 14. (And with time to spare??!!) I recall that you were going to change the Master Cylinder for the front brakes... Is that still something that you may do? That post was a long time ago, I figure you probably have figured out what you will do. Regardless, I am glad that you are ready to go, again... ENJOY!

I have a set of the Muzzy sliders now that he lowered the price. Would not have help on the previous 14 but nice protection in case of a minor tip over. For sure I will be careful this time around! Damaged tendons in my thumb will be slow to heal. At least another 3 weeks. My leg still looks like it has a water balloon in it. The Doc said a few more weeks for that as well.
I guess I'll have time to get the undertail, spools, sliders and alarm installed. Should keep me occupied for a while.
