FS 08 ZX-14 SE 1.7k mi w Cosmetic Damage - $5,499
The bike runs fine, I sometimes ride it to work. It's barely broken in. I crashed it around 1,400 mile mark by low-siding off a road (120-degree blind turn, first time on that route, realized my speed was too high (around 50mph) too late, hit brakes, rear wheel locked).
I repaired all of the damage that impaired functionality (broken head assembly plastic, broken taillight, etc). I rode the bike for 250 miles since and no issues. I enjoy it, but I just got a $5650 dentist bill that I cannot pay without selling this . I also need money for immigration to Canada in 2011.
The bike is garaged in Mount Juliet, TN.
Here's a video of walk-around of current state so you see what has scuffs, etc:

The bike lacks right-side muffler (it does have one on right now but its borrowed from a local fellow rider). I can sell bike with it if my friend is willing to part with the muffler for a reasonable price.
Bike has some upgrades:
- 55-watt HID low beams - BRIGHT!
- Puig double-bubble dark smoke windscreen (stock available too)
- Muzzy aluminum cooling radiator fan
- Engine Ice
And I think that's it ha-ha.
Here are some images to compliment the video. I took pics of the parts having damage - overall the bike is fine. The tank, head assembly plastic, foot pegs, and mirrors are brand new.
