You think MSRP is high on the zx14 ?
My 10 hours in the ER 3 weeks ago 41,257. dollars . I didn't have a room , i was in a hall way the hole time.. That is NOT the Bill for the 4 days i spent in the hospital or the surgery and Dr charges .. That is JUST the 10 hours spent in the ER .. That makes the MSRP of a new ZX14R seem pretty small ..

I feel your pain. Had a stroke last june and spent several hours in ER then ICU then 3 days in a room. After that 3 weeks in rehab and on home for 4 weeks of outpatient rehab.
It doesn't take long for the bill to start to stack up.

Last year I had to have a disk replaced in my neck. I had lost use of my left arm and much feeling in the hand. I am about to have a second surgery on my knee to replace a torn ACL. That ACL was itself a replacement from '02. What is my bill? $0 Thank you Uncle Sam (and everyone here who pays taxes).
Smokin, glad you are feeling better and I hope that your insurance covered most of your bill. I would have to sell both of my bikes and put off retirement for another year if I had to pay that out of pocket.

I guess the 13% tax we pay up here in canada to have free health care is a bargain.

i agree.. nothing is free but it should not be so outrageous...
it is more about business of making more money than helping you.
