Question about ZX14 bar risers.

Has anyone put LSL or ABM superbike bars on ?

The kind that replace the top yoke on the triple tree with a new plate with clamps on that fit a flat bar instead of the standard clip-ons.

Raises the bars about 4" up and 1" back - would like to know about the ...

I have a used Corbin ZX-14 seat (that I've never used ) -fits my 2011 which should fit yours.

If you're interested let me know and Let's see if I can get a pic posted up

Could you post some pics with steering on full lock both sides please ?

I was looking at buying an Iload or a Mercedes Vito. The karting bug has hit again and theres that many kangaroo's around here Im not keen
on road bike riding anymore so maybe ill get into dirt bikes as well. I could always buy a kart with a trailer, but Ive got to look at making a compromise on ...

I have Genmar risers on mine and the difference between stock and not is amazing.

Rode the long way to Jindabyne - Wollongong to Bega then across to Jindabyne without a problem.

A good couple of hundred klms around the mountains the following day and then hammered home on the slab on the 3rd day ...

Jacket yes, boots no.

Unless the boots were coming apart it's a hard ask to have them take back something that is "only" uncomfortable.

But as for the jacket, I'd be throwing the biggest tantrum if they didn't take that back after 2 days, that's wrong.

Fixed mount to the bike also leaves you free to enjoy the scenery (especially here in the 'gong in summer) without having your footage pan left and right dramatically as something catches your eye

Chest mount is my preference BUT the results vary

That one was a bit low, but this one is not too bad

I have also seen them attached to the chin part of the helmet, that should give you a good view, but on some ...

I'm using the chest mounted harness ATM for exactly this reason - feral HWP - only problem is the very dark tinted screen which obscures about a quarter of the field of view.

Thinking about mounting it on the screen but that then loses the POV effect a bit

$20k, what is gold plated?

Sad part is someone will buy it for near that, good luck to them, money and sense don't always go together.

that and you can't take it with you
WTF! Are you sure? I was told at my last get together with the brotherhood of the future life that if I invested in their ...

Sounds like the current model to me.

Are the dials white or black faced ?

If they're black and the LCD screen comes up with an image of the headlamps on start-up then it's the current model.

That does look like the ducks guts.

Can you post up a pick of the bars please ? It's the only thing that bugs me about mine. The bars are still about 2" too far away for long distance travel even with the bar risers.

A Yamaha dirt bike ? WR or YZF something or other ?

Quite a journey you've been on with this bike, and it does look great.

But to each their own.
Take a test ride of the 300 down some familiar roads and see how it feels?

Er6 or Ninja 650 instead ?
