Damn that stock ZX14R pull like hell on the top end ... The zx14R made it look like the zx10 let off the throttle But clearly the ZX10 had it pinned and the ZX14R just ran right by it ... Damn !!!

Garth one thing we know from your videos is your ZX10R is NOT slow .. To see that ZX14R so far behind at first and then see it just drive right by you is just crazy !!! Thanks so much for the Video .. Good Job Garth ..

Drafting is correct if the 14r was closer to you..., but the 14R that far back & start coming on you, that was RAW HORSEPOWER...

The second video is quite impressive, stock exhaust and all. If that race happened up here I would certainly loose with my 14R...no where to run it like that here. Looks like I'll be saving my nickles for the Guhl reflash though.

Remember what Brock posted about the first 3 gears on the 14r? Watch the headlight dip when the 14r shifts, when he gets in 4th gear he starts gaining, we need that BHRE=Brocks Horsepower Reduction Eliminator....

This is not exactly true. Drafting works from even quite a ways back. Done it at the 140ish mark with 600s....even in the 170s I picked up 3-4 mph with an outdated zx9r drafting an R1. You don't have to be RIGHT THERE ON HIS REAR WHEEL to get a benefit.
If you go out there and DO IT over and over you will see I'm not just making it up.
It is my opinion based on watching the runs that IF the 14 had sat out and not picked up a partial draft it would have potentially NOT passed at the end....or it may have just barely caught it. Regardless even when it did pass it was able to make it stick indicating to me (again just speaking from experience) that the 14, as many already know is the better out of the box performer given the larger motor and better wind protection for average to larger sized riders.
Good vid.

"Top speed run of a 2012 ZX14. It only did 196.2mph today but did 198mph last weekend all out. A super fast bike with ALOT of potential! The bike is 99% stock with the ONLY mod being a reflashed ECU from Guhl Motors"
So it ran 196.2 on May 27, 2012 and you guys used the same GPS?

On the 2012 ZX14 Vs 2011 ZX10r video, I had to laugh the second time I watched it, as he just goes around you and takes your lane. Imagine if he pushed in his mirrors.. Good videos.
