Kawi started selling the 14R in Thailand from this year- they're rare birds as with import taxes and miscellaneous BS they run about twice what they do in the States, but I had to have one.
After a wait of four months (customs issues, idiot mechanics, unreliable delivery companies, etc) it showed up on Sunday night- metallic midnight sapphire blue is the only color available in SE Asia (it looks black in everything except direct sunlight)- I got my accessories from the States (it's impossible to get anything locally).
Thailand isn't exactly the ideal location for a 14R (though there's fantastic riding up north), but I don't care.;)
Note the red/white rope the monk who blessed the bike gave me- he said I'm now safe from harm, but I'm gonna gear-up anyway...:)
