Ceramic wheel bearings on the stock zx14 wheels is something I'd never do.

On a set of aftermarket rollers...then definately maybe.
why?



I shouldn't have to point out to another zx14 owner the fact that this bike has by far the heaviest wheels among all japanese sport motorcycles manufactured in the last 10-15 years. That includes the Busa and it's predecestor zx12.

Sorry you had to point that out. But Im too dumb to figure out why you wouldnt use em? Bcuz alot of people are and not having any problems. But i thought you were seeing something i wasnt. Thought maybe there was a design flaw in the wheel or something. Plese enlighten me.

For street riding I would invest my $400 in a new oem zx10 front wheel and some ti rotor bolts
and that will slightly sharpen the steering of the 14.
