ORIENT EXPRESS TURBO ZX14! Paint by Cycle Paint & Metal!
Posted the Orient "Busa" in the Busa Forum so, this is the 1st pic I've seen with the bodywork actually installed on the 14.
Here is the link.

To make clickable or add image, just do it like this,but use the [ and ] in place of the { and } :
web address: {url}web address{/url}
Photo: {img}photo address{/img}
Quote: {quote}blah blah blah{/quote}
For photo, go to the photo and right click on it, go to "Properties" then high light ALL of the "Address". Paste it in between the {img} and the {/img} and you are done.
Don't forget to replace the { and } with the symbols just under them, [ and ]

nice!
too bad they spent all that money on the busa, instead of developing the 14 more, and utilising the 14's superior transmission, crank, and clutch design...

ATP
no scavenger, proven flawless design I am told, straight bolt up...
I can't be dealing with fitment issues when I am 2000 miles away...
Rick, I was not making a statement about their specific ride, just the difference in manufacture design in general...and a little cheer for the14! maybe

Lyle, its identical to mine except for the velocty stacks. Your bike should produce more power. Are you going with shorter rods or shorter pistons?? Make sure you get the billet velocity stacks for anything over 20psi. I haven't blown mine off, yet. Your map from Harry should be identical to the orient express map, thats what I have.
Are you getting a boost controller?? Anything above about 12psi, and when the lockup comes in it starts to blow the rear tire away. Thats with a new shinko ultra at 10psi, at 66".

2mm shorter rods, thicker domes, 9.5:1 ceramic coated pistons....
lockup, ported head, oversize exh valves, billet stacks, 550 injectors with modified fuel rail...
6-10" stretch, and cut ALLOT of weight off the bike!
should go good! LOL
Orient one is a MR turbo kit, not ATP
get the bike apart yet?

I always wondered why the exhaust is on the left on a Kawasaki and not on the right ala Suzuki.
Nice job by the way.

I hope you have a new swingarm, not the stock one stretched or modded. It will just twist and cause the bike to pull to one side.
Not taking the bike apart, its fine. Just need some time off to race it again. So far last month, I had 4 days off, total.
