Are there others in your Harley group who are as open to "ricers" as you are? Have you let others in your Harley group ride your 14? -bg
Bill, where I work everyone rides Harleys, I'm the only sportbike guy. There has been a lot of interest though when I show up on my CBR or ZX and our IT manager is looking at buying a rice rocket. These guys are all tech people and engineers and they are blown away by the incredible technology we get for 10 grand. Most of them dropped between 20 and 25K on their Harleys so they know what they're looking at. I have found, one ride on a ZX-14 and these guys are instant converts....major paradigm shift. They're used to machines that are in their "comfort zone" between 70 and 80 mph. The 14's performance envelope is mind boggling to these guys the first time they get on one. It's like getting out of a Curtiss Jenny biplane and strapping an F-22 Raptor to your butt. The difference in performance levels is almost that great.
