: Gimme a Lime Green ZX14 and it's BOUGHT!
Green Meenie 01-18-2008, 08:53 PM I know that Team Green chose Lime Green as it's "racing" color... but seriously! No other bike manufacturer would DARE use Lime Green on it's production bikes for fear of mistaken identity. So Kawi needs to bring on the big boy in Lime Green for '09!
If you agree, post a response... if not, post a reason that makes perfect sense (impossible :wink:)!
Until then it's the ZX10R till I DIE!

McHaggis 01-18-2008, 09:00 PM Well....it IS the fastest color.:thumbsup:
alharm1 01-18-2008, 10:17 PM I agree, they should make a kawi-green 14!!!!! Might sway me to add one to my collection.
wpbzx-10 01-19-2008, 10:30 AM Well....it IS the fastest color.:thumbsup:
not ture the Titanium is the fastest, but i would like to see it in Titanium other than that silver

Green Meenie 01-19-2008, 11:44 PM That is the most beautiful thing ever (a tear rolls down my cheak)! And I have a stiffy... (sniff, sniff) If I saw it on the showroom floor tonight, I would buy it in a second! Hot SH*T! Now I'm green with envy! Can't wait to see it all assembled. We want to see a TON of pics when done! :eek2:

Wow!!!!!!!!! Very Nice, where did you get the green tach and speedo plates for the clusters?.....and clean your forks up next time :heyyou:...but again very nice color :thumbsup:
ninjamaster6-10 01-23-2008, 09:02 PM Forks are getting an oil change,got hte speedo stuff from Speedhut.com.Called them up and asked if they made green and he made them.What I like about them best is that I can control the brightness of them.And the whole bike is getting a good "Doushing"!!!!!!

byebyebusa 01-25-2008, 08:49 AM well I'm sure you've been already advised of it, but Kawasaki did sell a limited amount of green plastics and tank for the 14 in lime green .. kinda pricy thou
GA10R 01-25-2008, 08:55 AM Yeah kawi needs to leave the flames and stickers to suzuki and bring out a green 14.

I'm curious... How much did the paint alone cost you?
newfie-cow-a-socky 02-01-2008, 03:15 PM :+1: That's awesome! I've been thinkin of either a 14 or a Concours 14, but either way I'd love to have it green. Beautiful job. The colour is similar to the candy apple green on the '01 ZX-9 and ZX-12. :zx_green:
GO GREEN OR GO HOME!
ninjamaster6-10 02-01-2008, 03:26 PM Paint and materials.......$800.Not counting my time(about 25 hours from start to finish).
Green Meenie 02-02-2008, 01:58 AM Paint and materials.......$800.Not counting my time(about 25 hours from start to finish).
Again... I'm SOOOO jealous! But at the same time... dude your skills are SICK!
:kneel:
Labor rate per hour... PRICELESS!!! (in other words bring $3000 more dollars):wink:. So if the rest of your brotheren want to send in their stuff to be painted, what's the total cost?
ninjamaster6-10 02-02-2008, 12:55 PM I would probably charge around $1600 for this one.Half of that is materials.
I'm trying to get it back together but I'm trying to get other things done while it's apart.Adding another fan to the radiator,changed fork and engine oil,some heated hand grips(long as the roads are dry I'm riding)new chain and sprockets(stock gearing)new tires(Pilot Road II)new front brake pads,got the hugger painted and installed,running wiring for the cyclepump and some cleaning!!!
ninjamaster6-10 02-11-2008, 08:34 PM Just an update......waiting on the chain a sprocket and it's done!!!!!!Damn that front sprocket area was dirty!!!!20,000 miles and lot's of gunk!
Green Meenie 02-13-2008, 03:47 PM Thanks for the update! Still waiting for final pics :popcorn:
:occasion1
ninjamaster6-10 02-13-2008, 09:57 PM Still waiting on the chain and sprockets,plu it snowed 6 inches today.This is the best I can do right now.

ninjamaster6-10 02-15-2008, 09:16 AM are your turns signals painted? they look like they're made that way.
I actually painted them.It was a wee bit cheaper than buying all new ones.I was thinking too that a person could probably do this with any color,as long as you made it a candy coat(thined it out).
lil ninja 02-15-2008, 09:24 AM i knew it cause i've seen the green blinkers before and they wouldn't match your colour.
rocketracermike 02-15-2008, 05:21 PM you should send a pic of your bike and give them a hint for a new color on the 14. your bike looks great.
greenman43 02-21-2008, 03:19 AM I'm not a 14 owner, but I spotted this thread. Here's something I scanned from a recent Japanese magazine. Not sure if the shop advertising were customisers, but irrespective the green is a good look.
Cheers,
Brian

That's what I'm talking about! Okay, so give up the goods... custom paint or did you order the skin in that beautiful lime green? Sharing is caring! :occasion1:
kawiiiiii 02-29-2008, 12:30 AM I bought the skin in different colors on ebay. A friend pinted them for me.
