You just wait till he gets the bike back with the invoice...You people fucking kill me...A guy posts up that he had problems with his bike and everyone doubts him...Yes I understand that its hard to believe without seeing a pic, but keep in mind that his bike was already there a few days before I got down to the shop...Like I said before wait till you see the invoice than you can lick my balls

Such vulgarity, huh.
I'm not lickin' 'em, Holmes.
And you may have meant "then" instead of "than". Or maybe you're still attempting to pass 8th grade English class.

Luckz I thought you would get a kick about that.. Calling you a idiot.. Its a shame about this website we can't post and share information among other fellow riders and not get Critised or ridiculed.
The problem is most these people proably don't even have 4000 miles on their bikes

If you'll look in the threads you'll see my 7500 mile service posted earlier. But then again if you read as well as you write, don't even bother

Sucks as it does people have to realize these things aren't always Perfect from the factory. If i recall right steve had to go back twice because of oil seapage around the head area of his 14's engine and he wasn't the only one reporting this issue either. It sucks what happened to drow and i hope it gets resolved proper. So far the 14 seems to have had a damn good track record in it's first year whereas bikes like the '04 R1 had customers complaining about engines puking left and right. The '99 busa's weren't exactly perfect either with the cam chain tensioner recall dance (Which was crossed over to the 2000 year models), clogged fuel filters, and a few issues with the clutch's.
Goes to show the people who say to break the bike in fairly hard compared to what the owners manual says aren't bullshitting. If it's gonna break it's gonna break no matter how much you pussyfoot it. Best that you find out if it will while it's covered.

You guys just cant help it can you. You gotta bash the guy. Hes posting about his bike having a failure and all you care about is proof that it failed. As if theres no way on earth a zx14 engine could have a failure. Grow up.
Then the personal attacks start.
Why anyone would even post about thier zx14 on this board I havent a clue.
Its just like all the other kiddie boards now. What a shame. Congradulations.

lol, i know...there has never been any problems with a bike that has come from the factory...just like the front wheel on the 10 when they first came out, or the problems that yamaha had when they first came out...Well atleast his bike was still under warrenty and kawi is footin the bill...Ok, back to the good forum now

The way things are produced today, it's a miracle that more things don't go wrong, be it bikes or whatnot. I don't know about bikes, but cars being built by robots and machinery, something is bound to go wrong every now and then. You guys know all about how honda civics are supposed to be tough as nails right? Well, that's why I bought my 02 civic. I had problems with the tranny jumping out of 2nd gear all the time. It took me three trips to the dealer and ALOT of complaining, but it finally got fixed..................sorry, I don't have pics of the tranny, LOL

man, no offense, but your friends are fucking idiots if your motor is "messed up" like you says it is... children on the board you say, i say you have no idea what your talking about. ok, if it IS, you should at least know what it is since its taken apart...
Frist of all you are fucking idiot. I was one of the guys that went to the shop and checked Rowlands bike. I have ridden with him for three years. I was in the area looking at a bike and I walked back in the shop and all they had on the counter was the engine torn apart. The rod wasn't there. So what was the point of taking a picture of just the engine case? I could have taken a picture of my friends R1 engine that we are working on, they look the same. You act like a fucking dumbass that belongs on gixer.com. When he gets the bike back we will scan the invoice and show it to you you stupid fuck
I was the one who posted the first post and called bull shit ...But take note i never called anyone names .... Now you tell me you saw the cases ?? OK was there a hole in them ??? He said he tossed a rod so there must be a hole or that was just a story... You said you didn't see the rods?? Did you even bother to take the time to ask to the service tech what happened? or ask to look at the rods? I sure they were there somewhere?? The longer this gets the more fishy it gets ...I asked this questions for two reasons ,( one) if it really happened , (two) if it did really happen Myself and others would like to know what caused problem...
Look i don't want to see a repair order, anyone can print up a repair order... We need to see pictures..We info from the tech of what caused the problem ..This it not to much to ask..
Now you guys can go back to name calling if you like but it will not fix the problem or answer the questions that were first asked in this thread and the other thread ...Smokin..

I didn't see any of the parts layin around. And no I didn't ask if we could see them because to be honest I dont really care since I do not own one. Even if I would have posted pictures you guys would have said that this wasn't even a zx-14 engine. This might be the only one that has problems. He is picking the bike back up on wednesday and he will scan the order. maybe if you pm him he will give you the number to the shop that his bike was at and they can tell you the same thing that i have told you guys. we just wanted to give some of you a warning that there was a problem. Like someone else said these are mass produced so things are bound to break.
