14R sales are strong
From what I can see 14R sales are strong, we have sold three of them already and its winter here, one guy is trading in his 011 with 1,000 miles on it for the blue one and the other guy is trading in an 07 for a SE and then mine. We have had other dealers calling already to dealer trade. So I don't think they are gonna have trouble selling these bikes.

bigwil would like to help you out but our dealership only ordered three of them and they are sold already not sure when we can ask Kawi for more don't know what demand is from other dealerships for them and their order amounts, can check and see when they are going to try and get more, because with their orded ones sold I am sure Spencer is going to try to get at least two to three more.

For the last 2 years Kawasaki has sold more bikes than any other brand here in CALI!! I guess Kawasaki's hard work is paying off.

Interesting, in my travels normally in the Dec - Feb, I'll stop by the local shops (this year looking for a possible replacement for the 02 VFR). I have been very surprised to see 3 ZX-14R's on the showroom floor. Lake Wales (Blue), Cocoa (Black) and Orlando (Black). The guy in Cocoa Almost had me when he said he'd like to see if the dealer would bump what they could give me for my VFR and Cut the MSRP for the 14 would I'd be interested in a trade. From an economy point I can't, I'm working as a contractor and that expires in June.
Note: One dealer actually had a 12 Ninja 650 on the floor and most dealers told me they were not going to be released until Feb so I guess you never know.
I suspect Bike week will feed the frenzy but time will tell. Kawasaki is keeping it Fresh and I think my AMA mag confirmed that Kawasaki was out selling all other Manufactures.
