What parameters do you recommend? Is N=14, r=8, p=1 good enough?

  The usual answer is to choose the parameters in such a way that targets the largest verification time that your servers can stand. I'm not aware of a recommended minimum value. In general, though, you're making a pretty good choice by choosing bcrypt, and so long as you're using the above you should have far better security as compared to sha*/md5/etc
