I just ordered the kit through "Pro-bolt", they do have a USA division that I ordered through, here is the USA division link:
http://www.probolt-usa.com/Products/Kawasaki_GTR1400_09
Cost was $69 including shipping and the ordering process was easy, they have other colors to choose from as well, I went with black of course...

My question is fairly complex. Why would anyone want to slow their bike down even more?
Everyone knows Neutron Silver is the fastest, I have considered these speed dampening fasteners, but decided that since I don't have a turbo (yet), it wasn't required. 
Hush up Chet, let the slow pokes have their fun.

Wow! They have just about every bolt that you could want.
They even have gashole screws in your choice of colors.

I just got an email from Pro-bolt confirming my online order, that's a good start to get an email from them 15 minutes after ordering, feels like the ProjektD ordering process!
Looks like they're shipping to me from California, which is great because that means should arrive in only a couple days...

Good find. They are not cheap, but it's always good to have a source for stuff like that.

Just a thought but you might want to go easy on those fasteners. They are made of 7075 aluminum which is a strong Al. alloy but I think the original fasteners are stronger and harder. Also, the anodizing will resist the weather OK but again, not as well as the original stainless steel fasteners. Not saying they won't work or they are not a good product, just that you might want to be a tad more careful when using them than the stock fasteners.
Best of luck with them and let us know how they work out for you.

You could go with the titanium, but alas, not in black

Understood Brian, thanks for bringing up that point, I'm only doing the ones that hold the plastics on so should be ok as I don't plan on cranking down to hard on those, learned that the hard way on other bikes...

Break out a sharpie. :p
Seriously though, wouldn't some gun bluing/blacking oxide stuff work?

I have the Pro-Bolt in black on my bike. They look great, but they are soft and strip easily. If you are gentle with them they work great. I have over 25K on mine since I added these and they have seen plenty of rain - still look like new.

Any pics of them installed Spanky??

Those black guys will try anything to keep up with the silvers......

Yep, near the end of the C-14 pics thread. I did not put them on the front fender because I stripped two of them just making them snug. The ones on the plastic of the fairing work just fine.

Tough to tell from those pics bro, but I do love your custom paint job!

I will take a close up tomorrow and post it so you can see the black fairing screws. They blend in very nice.

Thanks, look forward to seeing em!
So have you thought about powdercoating your wheels black Spanky? I think that would look pretty sick with that custom paint bro...
Here's a thread, not sure if you've seen it.
