Is that a hydraulic clutch I see on there ?
Could they have possibly given this bike a REAL clutch that'll handle some heat ?

I have no comment about this so called ZX14...
I will wait until its released and seeing it in person...
Then seeing what real Horse Power it has and how it does in the 1/4 mile...

I'd been waiting on the Aprilia two-cylinder supermoto for a while... of course it has to be coming out just as I'd gotten a different supermoto. Interesting press release that there was for it as well, at the delays having been to make sure engine service intervals could be long enough (precisely the problem with my KTM. Once I get in the groove it will be no problem, but as is, I've never even started it, figuring the used bike may be overdue for valves or even bearings.)

I might have missed it or be reading too much into a sticker... but I thought the sticker said ZX-14 not ZX-14R.
Sounds like a trivial difference but in Kawasaki-speak it's not. E.g. ZX-10 and ZX-11 were not supersports. The ZZR-1100 (elsewhere in the world) was the same bike as the ZX-11 here.
The lack of "R", if indeed it is omitted, could be intentional and with significance. Certainly styling wise, it's not been aimed in the ZX-R direction.
