A GREAT RIDE TODAY!!!! 8 ZX14's Thanks guys!!!
To all who came, I don't think you can ask for more from a first ride. To all that missed it, it was an epic day. I enjoyed everyone from ZX14.com, and I hope you all enjoyed the ride with me as well. I think we started something great.

I am thinking of starting a motorcycle club, so I can organize my few (40+) friends I ride with to have rides and get all of us discounts on bike parts, and food, etc. If any of you wish to do so as well, let me know and I will set it up, create a logo/name, get your approval, and make it official. I would like to have several days again like today.
Thanks to everyone who came. Even the two we didn't expect. (zx14.net guy & stripped zx14 guy) I could do this every weekend.
Thanks Bob for the photos, I'll email all of you photos from the guy at the Rock Store when he sends them to me.

Outside of the launch photos that's the most ZX-14's I've ever seen in a photo. Sound like a fun time.

There was two more not in the photos. A guy with a stripped one, and another with a camera mount and a muzzy 4-1 exhaust.

Awesome Ride Htosado!
We need this event to be a regular deal .
But with more ZX14's hopefully lol!
From Left to right in the pic it was My dad(AL who is not on this or any site),Intimida2or(Myself aka Lee) ,SoCal ZX-14 Rider, Htosado, My buddy Chuck (who will be on this site shortly l) and ZXBob.

We had a special guest from ZX14.net aka "MDR"

Here's MDR with Htosado:

Great fun, can't wait to do it again.
Let the good times roll!
Maybe we should post on zx-14.net and other bourds and invite them here to pick up ralley info.
Anyone on other boards?
Lets get more 14's together.
Who was that Croation guy?
He's the one standing in the middle of the pic above this post with sunglasses on his head.
He was the best 14 rider I've ever seen. He cranked out wheelies on that 14 like he was riding a 600 stunt bike.
He scraped the lower fairing on both sides going through the twisties, took his peg feelers off and his pegs were all scraped up.
Fricking A - I guess there is way more potential than I ever thought in this bike.
Hats off to the Croation guy, anyone get his name? I thought I heard him say he heard about the rally on Zx-14.net. I invited him to this board.
If this guy put on a riding school I would definitly sign up!! He was an awsome rider!!

i'm the BIG guy in the white tee shirt in the Rock Store photo with us on our bikes. Htosado (to my left, gray shirt) looks thin compared to me. lol Also on the right in the middle photo of INTIMIDA2OR's dad (blue bike) and me.
Maybe a turbo would help me and my beer belly keep up with these guys! lol
And yes I'm on a diet, Diet = the hard way to increase the HP/weight ratio.

Yah that guy is on ZX14.net and so am i.
His SN is MDR but his real name is Arsenio.
What a rider he is !
He even complained about why he couldn't get any lower in the turns LOL!
I wish i had my camera mount already because i was behind him and saw some awesome moves.
He looks like he just drops the bike on its side and rockets around all the corners while leaving long rear tire skids all through the turns

Who's up for next saturday? I tightened up my front shocks, and I'm doing my rear tomorrow. I went down the switchbacks in Palos Verdes yesterday, and my bike keeps getting better.
Intimida2or, you should feel it now. I also got a pretty good map (finally) and put in the fuel accelerator, runs way better than saturday.
That guy rides to the rock store every saturday, sometimes sunday.

He said he did Angeles Crest runs too, you ever go up there Htosado?

It's been a while. I lost a friend up there, and stopped going back in '98. I do have a few friends that go weekly. I'm game for anything.
