The ZX10 will be lighter and better handling. I'm sure the seating position is not as comfortable as the 14 but if you don't ride 200 miles it should still be comfortable. If your looking for more cornering fun the 10 is a better choice. IMHO

Both bikes are good looking, but it does come down to your riding style. If you love the corners trade it in. I have a streached and slamed 09 ZX14. I like going fast in a straight line. Get what you want.

The 08 and 09 are mechanical identical the 09 has a couple of different paint color options.

I think the 04/05 10's look better, but like most, I like the 10's cause of ease of handling but that 14............wow! Lol

I've had both and they are each great bikes. The 3rd gen zx10 handles pretty sweet and has a great top end hit but is pretty soft on the bottom. If you're a corner carver the 10 should be fun but otherwise I'd keep the 14.
