Ladies and Gentleman, I do believe I am the first in the world. I received my 2014 Ninja 1000 KQR bags this afternoon and just finished up installing them onto my 2012 Ninja 1000. I took a TON of fabrication and a lot of time to make the install happen. I would NOT recommend trying this yourself. I did it because I started making modifications to the brackets and by then, it was too late. The best part is they work with my Akrapovic Full race exhaust system with the perfect amount of room to spare! I have roughly 2-3 inches of clearance between the bags and the exhaust.
Before you start asking me how, I am considering developing a kit. I haven't completely decided yet, but I'll let you know if I decide to or not. I managed to do the whole install with only drilling 2 holes into the rear subframe and cutting 2 small holes into the black under tail piece. Have a look for yourself!
