58" Wheelbase?
http://www.bikeland.org/board/viewthread.php?FID=27&TID=21317&set_time=
According to the info there, 1475mm wheelbase.
Seems kinda long.
I'm really intersted in the handling now.

It's one full inch longer than the 12R' wheelbase
One more thing to notice:
people were certain that the 14 weighted less than 200kg
I think it's marvellously balanced
It might be even easier to flick into the corners than the 12R
We will see when the real street and racetrack results come in
At least it will beat Hayabusa in everything but fuel consumption

4 38mm throttle bodies, mileage may not be too bad.
In stock form at least.

OK, the fuel consumption is lower than that of the ZX-12R
when riding steadily because of the better torque
allowing one to gallop at lower rpm
and naturally because of the new superb aerodynamics
