Blue 08 ZX14 (It is a beautiful bike)
The owner of my local dealership (who is a friend) called me today to let me know he had the blue 08 ZX14 on the floor. I went to look at it and it was sitting beside a silver one. Under standard lighting it looks black. However, If you look very close you can see a hint of blue. We took it outside and once the sun hits it, it turns into a very beautiful dark metallic blue. It is a very, very nice looking color. The pictures on the net don't do it justice. I did not know if I would like this color before seeing it in person. Now, it is my favorite color. By the way the silver one looks nice to. The paint on the bike and the wheels are very close. That LE, well not for me.

I am with you on this one.
Here's my take on it with a few pictures that don't do it justice:

You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Lucky, congrads on the bike. The "3/4 front view" on the dock does it the most justice. Very nice looking bike!!!

Blue 08 ZX14
You guys are lucky. Here in Australia we have not seen any 08's as yet.
Does anyone have pics of the silver one? The blue looks pretty good!
