Coby Adams ZX14 - 8ball


Went to ATCO raceway in New Jersey - PROSTAR race today...
Saw Rickey Gadson run a 8.15 on that 14, but in the final against Mikey Slowe Rickey ran a 8.36 @ 170 because of a mis shift on top as Mikey took the win going 8.16 @ 179...

There was'nt to many people in the stands at all, there was plenty of 1000s giving the hayabusas just pure hell, and 1 of the better races was when the lady from Crossroads Powersports riding the 14 and the girl from Dc on the busa , the girl on the 14 won the race with a 9.03 I think and it looks like the front tire was still coming up way past the 330ft mark .

Those wheels look really cool. I'd like to get a set for my black 14.
Anyone know who's got the rims? Are they polished aluminum or chrome?

those rims are really slick... im very partial to PM and RC Components though
seeing pics of that bike makes me rethink modding my zx-14 into a road racer... that stretched arms looks fucking sinister.

Funny because gadson runs a 2 stage mtc lockup on that bike...which is supposed to be prohibited. The cover has been cut so I assume it has one in it?
