Guys...the parts in Muzzys Prostock bike will be "one-off" stuff. You won't be running down to your local shop to buy this stuff. A PSM engine is a TOTAL race engine ONLY, made to be run and disassembled after every race weekend. Orient and Muzzy will BOTH offer great hop up parts for the streetbikes.

I would have to agree with Gary, I believe with the new rules they can even manufacture cases. I certainly hope it goes well for them, I always thought the prostock 12 was one of the best looking bikes to go down the track. I ask Ryan the last time I was down at his shop if the 14 was going to be green. He said he didn't think it was but they were still working on the color scheme. Apparently, Joe (Trim Tex), is still on board so they have got to get everybodies colors in there. I am just glad to see a Kawasaki not only back in the mix but also factory backed.

The Team Muzzy Kawasaki Trim Tex ZX-14 Engine will be a modified production engine. Not a billet one off.

Or a hell of a lot of modifications. I can't wait to buy the new Muzzy pro-stock Transmission, crank, rods, etc, for my turbo 14.
Guess I'll have to wait for Ryan to get done with them first.

Good luck its nice to see Kawasaki getting into Pro Stock racing. The Harley's and Suzuki"s will have a big advantage more years of racing and R&D time. Good luck to Muzzy and Schnitz if anyone can get the 14 up to speed it would be those guys.
