ScubaCinci Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) Those bikes look great...I was never able to get over the cylinder bulges sticking out of the sides of the engine though. Feels weird when you rev the bike when sitting still, the bike wants to tip. They ride nice though...you'll love it.

Helmutt Posted October 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Given all the extras included and your bad case of maintenance meticulosis, someone will be getting one hellava deal on your ZX. GLWS Hellmutt....Thanks EO, I've taken good care of the big Ninja. I priced it very fairly with all that's included. Dont like to haggle much, rather mark it at a fair price to begin with and give the next guy a decent deal instead of working the pricetag over and over.Both bikes are very nice. To get your best $ out of the zx14, you may need to wait for spring. LBTS GLWSConsidered waiting just because it's a buyers market in the fall/winter, but I dont need to make a few hundo more since the money will be used to initiate the order for my next bike - dealer was optimistic in finding me one here in the states, but if I cant get it spec'd exactly how I want it...I'll order from the mother land. Sooner the better in that case. Can take a few months to get it built, shipped, and delivered. Rumor has it that BMW tends to wait to send bikes over until the container is full - logistically, makes sense...personally, I'll be anxiously counting the days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimTheAzn Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Wow, I actually like that. Normally I am not a fan of the looks of those type of bikes. Kinda has an s1000rr front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmutt Posted October 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 (edited) Ok, I think I've finally edited the first post for the last time LOL. I found more stuff that goes along with the bike, and snapped pics of the blems/included goodies. Buyer is getting a ballpark of $3000 in extras along with this deal.Brocks system, pc3 = $1600GPR V4 = $3502 spare wheelsets = $500 ( used investment )New rear Q3 = $140 after my rebateGalfer line kits = $130 bought on saleMilitant Moto Barrier Bars frame slider kit = $180 ( got a deal from a forum member who never installed on his bike )Just sayin Edited October 28, 2015 by Hellmutt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
330racing Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 (edited) I thought I was ready to get a C14 the last few years, swore that was my next ride. Just the weight and being the same I4 engine I've ridden since I was a teen have swayed me. The KTM SMC was my first non-jap bike ever, and the German mfg build quality has my interest piqued. Never ridden a BMW, but always had my eye on a model or 2 of theirs since the K13 came about. I'm ready for a classy upgrade, and my first NEW bikeIm there on the i4 as well.

JustinNck1 Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 So if its traded in, is the new RS ordered? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helmutt Posted December 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 So if its traded in, is the new RS ordered? Went a different direction. Bought a lightly used Triumph Sprint instead. Way cheaper, readily available, and closer dealer support 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinNck1 Posted December 10, 2015 Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Went a different direction. Bought a lightly used Triumph Sprint instead. Way cheaper, readily available, and closer dealer supportVery nice! I actually have an older Triumph Sprint in my garage right now. Those 3 cylinders have a very nice exhaust tone.

Helmutt Posted December 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 I'm digging the triple. It seems a great blend of torque and linear power. Mine's a GT, so just a bit larger than an ST but it's pretty nimble for it's roomy size. I am happy with the choice for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
