Article on '08 ZX-14 + nice pix of SE
Just a quick summary of the 2008 ZX-14, the picture of the SE looks very nice though...

I wonder if this colour scheme will be available in Canada?

I didn't think that it was possible to outugly the McHappy Meal paint scheme of yesteryear, but KHI has found a way. Red for suspension components?? Eeeyuck. Alright already Kawasaki, give us the goods without the tacky interpretatation of ghetto stylin'.

Almost everyone that didn't like the original colors offered, wanted some shade of green, whether candy lime or Kawasaki racing green. Seems like Kawasaki would have responded to this. It's not like they have to actually come up with somehing new. Instead they spend all their effort in painting the frame and adding decals.
Hey Kawasaki, wake up!

They missed the boat by not offering some sort of lime green IMO.

I absolutely love the matt-black - not the red, nor the flames though.

Looks like the same type of picture on kawasaki.com. I don't see how it's such a special picture? Oh well.

Not trying to be politically incorrect but the 14 and the Busa have a strong following from a segment of society that likes BLING.Different strokes for different folks.The new silver has caught my eye,but i wish they had good old Kawasaki racing green.

i don't think the bling crowd at the sonic parking lots on teen nights finds these cute either.
