New Bike
03/12/16 5:20 PM

Hey 14 forums I bought a 14 today and will pick it up in a week or so. I have been riding a Katana 1100 for a few year now and thought it was time to get a bike with EFI and ABS.I hope the bike is as smooth as I have read and seen on the internets lol. Hit me up if you live in the Cincy area.

Ok I picked her up Friday number 279 an I must say she is smooth, quick and pretty. But the wind that is hitting me is incredible, I feel like I am holding on for dear life. I miss my Katana1100's auto windscreen.

That is a beautiful bike man. I love the 30th anniversary colors. You'll get used to the wind and if not you can always add a bigger windscreen.

grats on the new ride tuna. I'm pretty happy with the results of the puig racing screen I got. Doesn't look too ridiculous like some of the screens and definitely deflects air higher than OE screen. Much easier to tuck in now.

Tuna - The Puig windscreen is excellent quality, fits perfectly, is a little taller and blocks a little more wind for me. I was seriously blowing around at highway speeds, and while the couple extra inches doesn't completely eliminate it, I'm happy now; not looking around for something else. I'm 6'-0". Here's an overlay pic showing the added height:

... and I guess I don't have a good zoom of the screen, but this gives you the idea from a few feet back:

The Puig screen is only $95 at Revzilla: http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/puig-racing-windscreen-kawasaki-zx14r-2006-2015

I seem to remember getting it on eBay even cheaper. Def worth every penny, IMO.

Edit: Yeah, $86 on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/290884567961
