Got an 08SE kit from Cory zero miles like new. Not sure what I`m doing with red parts yet.
And as some of our great members say,

looks much better than the oem w/ red frame and swing arm i think. Sitting here trying to picture it with the red/black fore mans lol

I have the black and red formans that came with the kit. Maybe I`ll flip them on and take some pic`s to compare.

yea cuz the ones u have on there look a shade lighter but still looks good though

Love the matt black fairings of the 08SE but didnt like the red rims and frame.
The black/red forman panels would look good and i reckon the little red rear pan would help break it up a bit....but hey its your call mate.
She looks nice.

Hey Scott the 2010 formans are actually the same color as the frame. Your right a shade off in color.

rredst I was looking for all black so I sprayed the little belly pan matte from Color rite it matches great.
I will try the 08 formans to see what it does and post some pic`s.

Right now I am healing from surgery (rotorcuff) and took all I could just to get the bike outside for some pic`s. Amazing how when you get into something you can open a can of worms.... My surgery was only minor just going to make a little clearance and woke from surgery with the Dr telling me he had to put a screw in and some thread to hold my shoulder together. Went from no tear to a full thickness tear and detached 80%. I had full range of motion before surgery but not now... Dr. says 4 months from Feb 13th. Ouch! thats hurting my riding! pic of my new hardware.. It`s titanium too.

Wow, Mike, that sucks for the Spring riding season. I was recently released (Feb. 21) by the ortho doc from my crash of November 13, 2011. My collarbone looks like hell on an X-ray, but the sawbones says it's all healed. Been riding since just after Xmas (hehe!) Rotator cuff surgery is a bit of a slog, rehab-wise.

damn that sucks mate.
my dad had a rotator cuff surgery, 4 or 5 titanium claws holding his shoulder/arm in its socket.
All the best for a speedy and high percentage recovery

I think ZX-14's look great in red!

English is my second language, please excuse my typos.

I meant to ask this question a few days ago on another thread, are the plastics/fairings/panels/fenders interchangeable in most ZX-14 models? For example, would the plastics of a candy burnt orange 2009 ZX-14 Special Edition fit a blue 2007 model?

Sorry to hear about the surgery.

Thanks guys! I`m not in pain just restricted from movement for a couple more weeks then rehab to get range of motion back.

KoflaOlivieri I believe 2006 to 2011 all the plasic parts interchange.

Scott, judging by your profile pic i'd have to agree with you.
I'll have to see if you have posted pics up and have a peek.

Hey Scott your rims are awesome! I personally like black bikes and had a deposit on 2011 black one. The dealer sold it out from under me thinking they could get me another one. They could`nt find one and all they had was left over 2010 Red that was $2600 cheaper. I thought about painting the bike gloss black but the 2010 Red really is a nice color and would be a crime to paint over it. I rode all last season Red and this past fall started to look at used OEM parts on ebay and was thinking I would paint those and put them on my bike. Then I came across Cory on Ebay. He had complete fairing kits Zero miles all sorts of colors. He mentioned he had 08 SE kit and we made the deal. Thats why I painted the red lowers wanting all black and the matte finish just looks sinister. One thing I did mess up was the tail section flames where the ZX14 is. I bought the decals $65. each and tried to put them on with one hand (injury) and got some wrinkles in the decal. What thew me off is there is a clear red laminate over the flames that I thought peeled off. I didnt. It looks too shiney like it suppose to come off but it wont. Scott would you have a close up pic of tail section decal from your bike or maybe you could just comment.

black here you go

black is it just the black thats showing all that excess sticker on there? I don't see all that on mine just the flames and zx14

Sorry for marking up your bike. Thanks for the pic`s! It must have something to do with the black color. The decal ends I put arrows to line up with on your pic`s line up with the end of the decal on my bike. The transparent red laminate must only work with red tail sections. I got the decal from Bike Bandit OEM parts. Bummer did`nt see that coming $120. in decals. Your decals dont look as shiney in between the flames. Mine just look wrong. Gonna wait a couple days to decide but pretty sure I`m peeling them off. Thanks again Scott you been helping me out quite a bit!

I saved your pic`s and magnified them in paint shop you can see the edges of decal a lot better. Edges are at the points of the arrows.

if i was to do anything to mine in the future it would all be matte black , no decals , and powder coat frame black. Go for the stealth look lol

very nice, indeed
