My new 09 ZX-14 - Green
So,
The dealer says my new Green ZX-14 should arrive this Wednesday 10/01/08. The order was placed at the show and he said the dealers only get one right now and the others have to wait for further releases.
I saw the post of the 09 GSX-R 1000's and my hips starting hurting just thinking about it again, even with adjustable pegs the ZX-14 should out-ergo the Gixxer easily.
Everything I had on my 08 should swap over to the 09 easily. I called Muzzy and they confirmed that the M14 / M10 for the 08's will fit the 09's. I think I'll stick with Muzzy M14/M10 combo since it worked out well for me on the 08. Nothing new is out there that rivals Muzzy/Brocks yet is there?
I even have my sparkling black/blue seat cowl off my wrecked 08. It might add a nice touch of flair to the green ZX-14. 
I'm gonna hate doing a whole other break-in period again, but at least I'll be on the road and not surfing.
Pics to come when the bike hits.

Hey Kawabonzai, how much extra do you have to pay for a personal plate? Or do you just pay a little more each year to renew it?

Dealer called me just now, the Green Machine has landed. They are prep'n it right now. I'll have the bike in a few hours. I think it'll be to dark-ish around 6pm (MST) to get good pics with the color, so I'll roll it out tomorrow morning and take some good pics where it will shine.
Ninja_Knight - Dunno about the initial cost but I do know it's a bit more each month. Found this ...

Appears to be $25 on top of regular charges.
Is "ZX14R" doing an injustice to the ZX14 community? It's like lying, lol. But I want it.
"R" will stand for "Replacement" as in the replacement for my wrecked 08.
