Just joined and just purchased a 2005 ZXW SES. I'm waiting until the weather is a little nicer, and then maybe some mods... or maybe not :)

Let's hope not :) According to Dennis at Pipercross UK, they make a version to fit that model year. He says it's a 20 minute install. (which means about an hour or so...)
