do not buy a green 14R
05/30/12 3:07 PM

Out for a ride early saturday morning,3 times I had police make U-turns and follow me,just long enough to run my plate.On my way home saturday afternoon I got pulled over,nice cop just interested in the bike,when I told him about the morning, he laughed and said it's very visible and most of the traffic cops have read about it.

You'd be surprised how many cops just want to see the bike, made several good friends that way that payed off later.

Darryle I spotted you a week ago from two miles away going south bound on DVP(or at least I think it was you. Sun makes that Green metal Flake pop.

Grrr, this was exactly why I was doing Everything to Find a Black one, But ??????????

Normally, I will tell you not to go into the light, but, That is one bad ass bike with a very special build sheet, if it's not sold already,,,, better hurry. You will kick yourself you let that one pass by.

Why do we not see that 14 of yours on here for sale ???? Tastefully Done will sell Quick.

Deal is in works, but now you have me all worried... May need to go drop off deposit tomorrow. Hate doing that.

It is, but not selling quick. On page 2. Bumping makes me feel dirty.

I used to have city cops, county mounties, and State cops follow me, pull up beside me and eyeball my bike, lots of time. I think the total carbon fiber treatment got a lot of attention.

Those sweet CT-Duals with obvious ceramic coating didn't hurt any either. Heh.

I haven't had no problems although I will say they don't miss it. I love the green. When I walked into the dealership and seen it my heart hit the floor. Game over. Man what a bike in any color!

When a cop follows me I just pull over. When they want to know why I pulled over I ask them what they would do if I kept following them.

certainly turns heads over here.

Yep, turned my head the fist time I saw one. Spotted it from a long way away. Looked like the ZX14 was speeding but the two other guys with him looked slow. I'm sure that's how the cops will see it as well. Big big fines here in Canada,,,, YUK.

When a cop follows me I just pull over.

2nd, if I make a turn and they follow I stop & walk up with papers in hand. What's the point in dragging out the inevitable ? Green = Ticket.
