HI All, I have joined the forum as i was involved with a bike breakers some years ago and brought quite a bit of old stock of new and used parts. I have started selling everything off as I am no longer going to get involved with it. Going through some of the box's I came up with some Kawasaki GTR TOP Block Side Sliders and tip over protection system for this bike. I have seen the old forum chat back have start a new one as I know that they changed the design to one that is not as nice. Hopefully, someone out there can make good use of these ones which have been used and will need a slight repair to the outer plastic but the actual bars are untouched which is testimony to how good these actually are. I dont have the bolts but I am sure that any person involved with car or bike repairs will be able to make some up or find something to do the job.
Here is the link to my EBAY listing. Hope it does someone a good turn. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/141466356854?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

Hi George, in answer to your question will they fit the C10 and C14, I have reviewed Topblock racing and the bikes have different bars. However, on looking at the pictures it would seem that the bottom part of the fairing on both bikes is the same design so unless the bottom part of the fairing is wider on the later model, then I would see no reason why they could not fit as the protection bars themselves, also different in design are the same looking shape and the ends look to be very similar in design.
I have read on one of the other forums that the earlier designs are the better looking ones and are preffered to the newer designs. Not sure is the plastic caps on the end are sold seperately by the company but might be worth asking as they are only screwed on and if so, should be a cheap fit to make mine perfect.
Sorry i cannot be much more help but I am trawling various forums on the parts I have to try to get them to people that can make use of them rather than going to someone that will try to make a profit out of me as I am selling most items at a loss compared to what i originally paid for everything.
I also have some fairing items that might get people out of trouble for now. Again not perfect but will make a get by for now item.

Then you aren't comparing a C10 and a C14.

I have to agree, I think plazy is confusing a C10 with a Gen I C14. I saw no reference to a C10 on Top Block's site.

As this certainly appears to not fit the ZG & GTR 1000 models it is being moved to another forum.... Any interested parties please do your due diligence before making purchase.
