If you want it that bad, GO FOR IT!!!!!!

Just buy it already! Get a Sargent seat also and you'll be a happy man.

You'll also notice that there isn't much posting on this site. There won't be for another few months either.

Why you ask? Because Ninja 1000 riders tend to spend more time RIDING than sitting on forums. Only reason I'm on here so much is because I have to "look" productive at work.

I just want to say that in my opinion the changes to the 2014 model year make it worth pursuing over older models: taller 6th gear, tuned for more mid-range power, way better hard bad quick-detach bag mounting, suspension tweaks, traction control, etc., etc.

Negotiate a good price on the OEM Hard Bags (<=$950) with Keyed install at time of purchase; order a Sargent Seat; Have the sag set for your weight and get the suspension dialed in.

You will truly love this machine. I am taking mine to the track twice a weekand doing 300-400 mile rides on saturdays!

Have fun...
