I say take the 1500 supercharged motor out of their wave runner & transplant it in your frame (260hp now!)
zixxer14, hahaha! Ultimately, that might be the move to make, lol.

That's kinda my take on it . I mean that stroker isn't really that significant unless used with other upgrades which includes head work. Now if it increased the cc's to like 1500 then hell yes that's very significant. If I were to just do 1 upgrade for power it would either be head work to improve flow , or that bitchin shortcut to power ... Spray! 
INTIMIDA2OR, yeah the head is already done and flows real well. Adding a 4 mil crank to an already 1417 would put it in the 1500 arena, maybe 1530 I think but then at the same time it's not going to yeild me an additional 30 HP like the spray will. I finding myself beginning to lean more towards the spray, something I know the least about.

I'ld recommend sending the head out and having it ported.Y2K is the guy to talk to about what to expect with the head work.

Hmm I see. But yeah spray will get you what you want. Or that 5 letter word Turbo.
Spray is cheap and when set up properly will not kill your motor prematurely.

Keep in mind that you will not get anywhere near 30 hp from just adding a 4mm crank to your current setup. Plus, you will be increasing piston speed...meaning higher strain at all times...unless you keep the revs down. If you don't already have aftermarket rods, you will probably want to consider them with the stroker crank.
Shane661, this is the kind of info that I was really looking to hear, the pros and more importantly the cons. What you are saying here is what's really important. I don't want to just hear how great the bike will run after this mod or that mod, I also want to hear what the negatives are. That's really what Im basing my decision on. I appreciate that Shane! I have stock rods in my bike. That should be ok with a 30 shot shouldn't it?
Stock rods with a stock crank will be more than adequate for a 30 shot. Your biggest potential issue with over a 30 or 40 shot will likely be cylinder sealing issues due to the overbore, and the narrow bore spacing of the ZX-14.

if your 1417 is setup tight to make max hp the spray maybe a little dangerous.
I would agree, find out how tight the motor is...

Yeah, that's what's up. Maybe I will get to Turbo anutha bike with low compression pistons and stock bore. Right now that Nitrous thingy is starting to win out over the stroker. Now I just need to find out how to go about seeing the different set ups involved with the spray. Still trying to learn some of the lingo with Nitrous so that i will know what I'm talking about. Thanks man!

Does anyone by chance know who the guy was that posted pictures showing the back part of his seat cut out so that he could mount his Nitrous bottle there? This was posted quite a while ago. I would appreciate if someone can let me know which thread that was.

You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Boost is the route I took..... I found a good deal on a kit, and its the best bang for the buck next to filling bottles all the time. But I don't drag my bike either, just a street cruiser lol
