One of the best finds in 34 years of motorcycling. I was more than pleased.

Suzy thanks for the reply.
Did you resurface the stock rotors on your zx14?
How much that cost you?
Thanks

It cost around 140.00 after shipping. Turn around was 6 days. I had put some new EBC HH pads on previously but there was some noise and slight pulsing at low speed. After the resurfacing the brakes were like new... 2 finger stopping. You can reuse your old pads if they are fairly new just sand them with 60-80 grit sand paper until you see fresh pad material. Make sure you bed them in on the fresh rotors. Make several HARD stops from 30 mph or so.

Just an update...
As per Suzy recommendation I sent my rotors to true disk for resurfacing.
$120 later the rotors are back and installed with a new set of EBC pads.
I took a bike for a short spin and the pulsing is gone!!
Thank you all for all the suggestions and particularly to Suzy for the great tip.
Tom at true disk is the real deal. Excellent customer service and quick turn around.
If you are in the market to replace your rotors send them to Tony he’ll make them new again.
