Those are right sexy Wolf. I don't know what it is around Dayton area, but I hardly ever see any other zx14s?!
I have see 1 green, 1 white, and 1 blue since I bought mine middle of last year. And you know, once you buy something you see everyone with them... not around here. I my bike is pretty unique, that and 200+hp ;-P doesn't hurt.

My name is Sebastian. I am the president and CEO of Predator Race Team. I am the President of the US Chapter of the 14Nation.
I know I have not been on the forum as often as I usually am as of late. I have been working extremely hard on building Predator Racing. I have also been dealing with some personal events. My son Gavin (14), broke his clavicle several weeks back. He is healing extremely well and doin fine. But he is a very high level Greco roman and Olympic wrestler and this injury has been catastrophic for his season. So a time for me to re-focus with my son. Spend some time playing video games and just 'being' 14. That is what I have been up to. And balancing my daughters dance career with her education and my wife serving full time active duty in the navy. Pretty busy.
The 14Nation was created by myself and Wolfman. It's concepts and ideas came from the both of us. We were talkin over each other on the phone with excitement when it all first began. Let's be clear, WOLFMAN had the idea FIRST!!!!!
He started it. His vision. His drive. His energy. His time. I shared his vision. I stepped in to help him. To expand. To raise it to the next level through my equal dedication and hard work. He heard what I had to say and he believed in me. Thank you my brother Wolfman! He granted me status as the US Chapter president. We believe the same vision. We share the same ideas.
This conflict has been the result of an error in communication. Nothing more.
The 14Nation is always about helping. Not harming. I have always tried to help any man or woman that needed help with their ride. In any way. I will pull over to the side of the road during a ride and check a fellow riders tire pressure. I will always try and help. As do the Patch Holding Members of the Nation. Our ride ethic is fast. Our ride ethic is safety. Our ride ethic is respect. Our ride ethic is OWN thy machine through control. I am a disciple of the 14R. I am the president of the US Chapter. I do not endorse this goofy public conflict.
1.A nation brother does not slight another in public or behind his back.
2.conflicts are resolved MAN TO MAN WHEN POSSIBLE. Over the phone when not.
Texts and posting doesn't do it. Tone does not come across.
If someone cannot be reached because of work obligations. We take that into account. If someone has personal obligations we take that into account.
This conflict is in direct violation of the rules and spirit of the 14Nation. We can and will discuss it in private via phone or skype with all concerned.
Note: I do know this. Wolfman is not a harmfull bully. He has always tried to help. Wolfman, I, Nasty, Bobby, Smat. We are the OG's. No one person bullied zxRacer into not posting as much. I was having conflict with him. Wolf was. I know others were. I know he offended many of the patch holders. Maybe more than one of us kinda vented on him. But he was not railroaded. He was not bullied. He stood and traded insults man to man. His arguments were hollow. He walked away from it. It is not a part of this conflict. If he wanted defending he would ask for it. He is a grown assed man. We all are. Let's behave as such. I have been guilty of losing my temper in the past. I am trying to be better. That simple.
The 14Nation is about helping riders achieve a higher level of performance in whatever riding discipline they seek to master. The 14Nation is about pursuing excellence and cutting out the mediocrity. The 14Nation is about learn, think, and apply. We are a club of riders first. The 14Nation is about building a global source of valid real life contacts, of awesome stand up brothers that seek to provide help and gain knowledge. The 14Nation will seek to use what we are building to help the sport of motorcycling as a whole. We will help riders to wrench on their ride for the first time. We will help riders to adjust their own suspension at home. We help riders to bond with and achieve greater enjoyment of their machine. We will help riders achieve potential. On and off the bike. We welcome interest from new members. We are anxious to learn and share our knowledge. We discourage public bullshit conflict. I am the President of the US Chapter. These are not debate-able points.

Well, fellas.........looks like Fiction 14 is gone, bye bye.
I'd like to sit down and buy you all some Molson's and some Blue Moon's and rewind this episode back to the beginning to make a new start.
I had reservations about the new club when I read some of the posts online that sounded a bit sophomoric! Kinda cultish and "sport biker gang" oriented. But with what little communication I have had to date with a couple of founding members, it seems to me that was only a regrettable miss-impression.
Can't comment on the "racer" dust up; I am ignorant of the particulars.
I would hate to see what could be a great association of ZX-14 riders with credibility and national charter go belly up before it gets off and running. I feel that most ZX-14 riders are "lone wolf" or independent rider oriented from their basic orientation. Those traits are a hallmark of the marque! I believe it is a admirable attribute and can make organization of a club difficult but worth the effort and time investment.
Being a country boy myself and growing up in a farm family where you made your own decisions, solved your own problems, paid your own way and stood by the rewards and consequences; I admire and respect that orientation and believe I understand where Nasty is coming from on that part.
Seems to me that Wolfman and Cblast have gone out of their way to clarify the true orientation of the club goals and leadership will come from the membership and leaders will be chosen from the membership as the club grows. Am I wrong, here?
Personally, I want to see this thing happen and membership grow as events, sponsors, etc are brought online. Special interest groups will form inside any general convocation inevitably and can be recognized, accommadated and even encouraged by the club as a whole without becoming the focus of the organization. In that way, all can maintain their distance and separation within the greater organization; independent entities who share a passion for the marque and for the ride will join efforts as they see fit to further the enjoyment of all who choose to partake. No forced dogma; no heiarchy or "in-crowd" to dictate. Only a general philosophy and set of governing principles for the operation of the greater club is necessary to be honored and supported by all.
That's my take; take it for what its worth. Put me down for charter membership, send my creds to the AMA and lets get this up and running'. We have a lot of silent (so far) list members who should be feelin' welcome and be eager to join the Nation; I would like to see many more step forward with a vote of confidence or at least interest! I feel like there are many "old friends" on this list who would be valued members and contributors as they enjoy the activities and benefits of membership that a stronng association (club) can offer.
Let's ride!
