Kawasaki 1400s

[Guest nE0]

Thats good news...

 

Now all I have to do is find a pair of street legal slipons.... hmmm.....

[Guest nE0]

Oh ya, I mostly ride in stop n go type of street riding, so mileage is around 14km/litre. When I first got the bike it was even worse, 13km/litre.

 

If I travel more on expressways ie. 50% expressways, 50% stop n go traffic, consumption goes down to around 15km/litre.

 

NSH cruising with pillion and side panniers, 130-150km/h average, the bike does 16.5km/litre.

 

Just for comparism, my Ducati 999 does 17km/litre street riding, 19km/litre NSH cruising.

To those who think I'll be bling bling-ing my ZZR1400 with lotsa performance *cough*muzzy*cough* parts , i'm sorry, but it might very well end up like this..

[Guest nE0]

Well, the GTR1400 can't corner like the ZZR1400. Imagine it at PG!

 

Anyway, the "flush" panniers costs US$1599, without shipping and GST... Thats like S$3000.

I don't think "rare" is a criteria for Kiri's selection of bikes.

Dear Alvin,

 

Thanks for your comments. I wish we have more supportive advertisers as our magazine only thrive on advertisers. Unfortunately Suzuki being one of the biggest distributors is not of the opinion of marketing through advertising. I hope this opinion will change as with increased revenues we can bring and afford better coverages and better articles for our readers. I hope you can help voice out the support of a local bike mag as sadly this is the current state and situation (that local bike shops and distributors mostly do not support advertisements). I would love to feature more bike clubs , superbikes , meeting of clubs etc however we do have a bottom line to keep as well due to the lack in revenue. The good news is we are making headway as our readership is increasing and there are gradually but a bit too slowly people who realise the effectiveness of our magazine. I will try to cover yr event if u can confirm the time and location. I hope u can voice our enthusiast support as we are eager to please and be the best bike mag not only in Singapore but the region eventually. Meanwhile Ride safely and Best Regards.

SO ALL YOU BIKERS GO PULL AND PESTER MORE PEOPLE TO COME!!!!

[darryll]

Hi. i just bought an old ZZR 600 cos i just passed my class 2 and it was the chapest bike i could find. was not love at first sight, but now im loving my bike to bits.

can i join in? i know my bike is the baby version...nothing to compare. but i still think its hell of a sexy bike! go ZZR!

[R46]

Hi guys i will be order this Fingertip Preload Adjuster Kit again any of you like to get ?

 

The Traxxion Dynamics Fingertip Preload Adjuster Kit is a simple to install kit that will allow a rider or mechanic to quickly move the fork spring preload adjuster without any tools (plus they look really sweet!!!) These high-quality, CNC-machined, anodized aluminum parts are available for any late model sport bike, and add a real "GP" look to your bike. Available colors are black, blue, red, gold, and silver. Kits come complete with hex key for quick installation. With our new design, you will help to "crash-proof" fork cap. If you should ever be so unfortunate as to crash, and your bike flips over, these caps will take the grinding, and forks are less likely to be damaged.

Price $70.00

By all means join in!

 

Perhaps we should create a ZZR thread? Then all the ZZRs (ZZR600, ZZR1100, ZZR1200 and ZZR1400 ) can come together.

 

Then again, Kawasakis are rare enough already, so we shouldn't split amongst ourselves too. Just join in the Ninja thread!

Halfway there. Does it look better than Givi V35s?

 

Theres one or two more confirmed ZZR1400s on the road now. Anyone knows them?

[myxilplix]

Neo, *touchwood* if anything bad happens, where will you be getting replacement parts from?

 

I'm thinking of putting the 1400 mirrors on my 10, do you know if anyone has stock in sg?

[Guest nE0]

My ZZR1400 is a dealer bike (Evershine), so thats the place to go for spares and other parts. I'm ordering a mainstand from them soon, the usual 1 - 3 month wait applies.

 

Why would you want to put ZX14 mirrors on your 10? Its nearly 20cm wide. The ZX12 mirrors seem identical, but with shorter stems.

[tgdir]

how much zx14 / zzr1400 in Singapore?

[-Mel-]

somehwere ard $28k+-
