The ZX14 may be the safest bike to get hit. A Ford Explorer blew a red light where I was sitting and threw me 38 feet. A cop was next to me.
Instant acceleration to 35mph sent the bike 138 feet and left no panel untouched on the unmanned adventure. Broken back, but I'm alive.

Glad to hear you are alright. Did the cops give you grief because your license plate was not visible?

I just bought brand new rotors, calipers with new pads and 2 air filters from this guy in Canada who is parting out a dozen or so brand new ZX14's and his prices are smoking good! I paypal'd him the money and within one week the parts were on my doorstep. He has complete body kits which include everything for $1,500.00....
Here is his link....

No he didn't. My paperwork seemed to suffice. No one said a thing about it.

I went on his site. I'm in heaven. I'm sorting some funds and I hope he has most everything I need in another week or so.

Butta I'm glad you are alright!
An accident like that could have been much worse!
I hope you get your baby fixed up soon, and are out riding it looking better than ever!
I'm glad we can still say that you "are" a good member on this forum instead of you "were"...
