Newbie reporting,Sanford FL
Good afternoon to all. This is my 1st time saying hello on the website even though I've been reviewing all of the threads for the past 10 months. I think I may have sucessfully attached a pic of my bike which is still stock. I'm planning on doing most of the enhancements that unlock this beast. I do have a question to ask everyone. When you are streching out this bike, do you use the stock swing arm and just buy the extenders? Or, do you have to buy a new swingarm? I enjoy all of the different characters(Smokin,Nightmare,and Ninjaboy come to mind) on this board and have learn a lot already but thanks in advance as we move forward learning and enjoying.
Superman fears nothing!

I think Superman fears Kryptonite, and the possibility his eyeglasses would fall off while at work and everyone will recognize him as being Superman.
Nice bike.

Congrats on the new bike! There are around 5 of us from the Tampa area with ZX14s posting up on here regularly. Join us on a Saturday night sometime~ we ride with some large crowds at times.
Chris I wanna ride with you all sometime too, or come over this way and join us at QSL, FL's largest bike night.
Thanks

Welcome aboard , you have all the support to do anything you want to your scooter. As far as lengthening ,most use the extensions with no problems, and they are less expensive than a swingarm, approx 300 vs 1000 bucks. I like going around corners and the handling aspect of the bike so I would not put them on unless you plan to do some holeshots...they do leave much harder when they are longer...

We just finished the ride. Geez it was fast-paced through some Orange groves and twisties. Had lunch over in Batow.
No one hurt but one guy laid his bike down in a fast turn, another guy hit a bird at top speed and it look like his bike exploded in front of me when he hit it. Tore up his right fairing a little.
Po-po if you are reading this about top speeds, of course I'm referring to top speed in 2nd gear of our bikes, we'd never exceed Florida posted speed limits.
