I want the ohlins forks in the first pic!
I like the low boy pipe, not a fan of high mount or undertails.
wonder how they dyno.

Ya I caught that on the top pic. too Dub. Very nice forks, pricey. The low pipe Ti. system looks beefy, oversize pipe maybe an extra 1/8 inch in Dia? Good flow and throaty I would guess.

I think those Ohlins will be on my X-mas list. Although, I don't know how good I've been?May end up with the front end of a JAWA!

Its good to see more competition in the marketplace finally for various aftermarket stufffor the 14 ...(although I'm still super happy with the carbon gen 3!)

Tiforce USA and Orient Express are parting ways from I understand. They do not seem to like each other when you ask questions on the phone. I'd be willing to bet both exhaust systems are coming out of the same factory in japan ____________ MySpace

Like it - but do you feel the exhaust is too high up?

update:
talked to Skip some more today at work- didnt get a chance to write down all the info, but he emailed me a dyno sheet:
numbers are all standard SAE, not STD (which reads higher)
run #1 is a bone stock zx-14
run #57 is ti system with map
run #68 is ti system with mr9 race fuel
interestingly, they did not use a TRE or remove the secondary butterflies for these runs...
he also mentioned something about opening up a zx-14 engine, raising the compression and making over 200 rwhp- i am under the impression that things are hush-hush about their latest zx-14 developments... going to talk with him further tomorrow and try to find out some more "secrets"... i am trying to stay one step ahead of the rest of the zx-14 crowd...
i am seriously considering getting my zx-14 mapped with one of their full titanium systems (ti header too) with removal of secondary flies... i am pretty much in love with the regular-mount exhaust.
also- a shorty can is available too! waiting on pics of that!

I don't know about the high pipe just looks to close to rear body work and in hot weather in stop and go traffic might just melt turn signal LOL. Besides occasionly i like to take the little nymhp for a ride kind cramped and maybe toasty.
