I finally got the BST wheels and the alien head put on and I also added a few more cosmetics. I am still waiting for my GPR steering damper to come in. It is supposed to be here on 3 Dec. I will not be able to ride until my leg is better therefore, I can't give anyone a ride impression but friend (who has a ZX12) said that my 14 seemed really lite.

NinjaNick, Passenger vehicle tags are entered & run differently than motorcycle tags by law enforcement.

NinjaNick, No I am not an alumni, I went there my first two years and then decided to join the army. So I actually finished my degree while in the army. My younger brother and my dad are KSU alumni's. My older brother is a jayhawk and I am a half jayhawk Also the tags are not the same each vehichle has a number behind the btrue. except for the bike.
freddie900, I am not sure how much weight i shaved off but the BST wheels are no more than 15lbs together. They are kind of pricey though but I bought them from ZX1kr off of this site. He will give you a pretty good deal and he shipped them really fast and he has great customer service. His shops name is cycle paint and metals.
Thanks everyone for the compliments

Nice bike, "True". I really like the front fender too. That's different. Goes well with the other different accents you have done to the bike.

bigdtd, I had a local shop put them on but I stood right there until the job was complete.
nightmare, since I am not no where near as fast as you are on the track, I just have to make my bike look like I can run with you. when I am able I will go to the track with you and I let you run it a few times but you must remember that I am not extended
fastest, thanks for the compliments, I just did not want to go chrome becuase that is what everyone do

Looks really nice. A question about the Carbon wheels if I may. A friend of mine, who's opinion I value, said that they used to have problems on the track with carbon wheels as the tire would rotate on the rim, throwing the whole wheel out of balance. Does that still happen particularly with a bike as powerful as the 14 ?

Oh that is no problem with you not being extended! This past weekend, I rode Kutt and MRCLEAN's bike for them. Kutt was doing very good especially since he has been out of the saddle for 15 months. He was able to pull 6.0s all night. He wanted me to see if I could get it into the 5s. I did it right off the back with a wheelie and spinning. I ran a 5.92 on MRCLEAN's Bike with only one pass and no nitrous. I love his airshifter. You have to come out and play with us sometime man. Even if it's just to ride around. GET WELL SOON!

BlackMagic14, yes the hugger is apart of the chain gaurd; I purchased it through powerbronze. I don't recommend ordering it through them as I did, you can find carriers here in the states that you may be able to get it from, that has better service. I waited three months for all the part I ordered from them..
BobC I have not heard of them doing that. I really hope that that is not the case.
tater, thanks

Love the BST's and quite frankly I would not care if the bike felt the same and did not pick up any time the look is worth the money.
