Good morning. Past nine months in my deployment I was thinking about zx14. I've been checking for a good price for so long and I finally found one. Londoun motorsports in Leesburg VA gave me one for $12838 out the door. It's a big upgrade from the 636 I've been riding for the last six years but I love it. I'm amazed how light the bike is and how it handles. I'm probably gonna have lots of questions later on. Thank you

oh yeah i love my 636 but this this is sweet. I had one concern though. I was riding and i let go of my handle bars around 30-40mph and i noticed the bike leaning right. it would be straight for a little bit, when the bike slows down it leans right. i checked the forks and the notches by th rear tire. they all seems to be good. its a brand new bike with 0 miles, I dont know what would cause this or is this something usual. i also had my brother ride it and he said the same thing.

Welcome Chris, when you let go of the bars did you notice if the road was crowned? Most roads have a hump in the middle and the bike will tend to drift in the downhill direction.

i tried on different roads and boh sides. it keeps going straight for couple of seconds and then it keep leaning right. i'll probably go by the dealership tomorrow and let one of their mechanics look at it

Could be out of alignment. Unless your sitting funny with more weight to one side.

That's a nice looking bike btw.
