Good news for us non-US peoples
Hey guess what. The longer the rest of the world has to wait for their ZX-14s the better we are off because the Americans will discover the problems and they will be fixed before we even see them. So we won't get sub-standard bikes that require recalls  ... I knew I could find something good in this whole fuck up of a product launch.......

Alrighty as this got absolutely no comment from anyone I guess I pissed a few people off.Sorry.
I really believe the bikes will be perfect, they have to be look what happened last time when they released the ZX-12 against the Hayabusa, the media spat out it's bones in the U.S.A. I'm partially glad they are taking their time because it means Kawasaki is taking extra care. I would prefer however to be told that officially by Kawasaki and not just add to the rumour mill.
Thursday I was feeling very jaded about the whole having to wait for the bike. I even went and looked at other makes, Ducatis, MVs, Benellis, Moto Guzzis, Cagivas and Aprilias because if I couldn't have what I wanted from Kawasaki straight away I thought about going in a completely different direction. Fortunately for me mainly because of the beating my wife gave me I have decided to stick with Kawasaki at least then I won't always be wondering "what if?"

Frustration from waiting will make you say things you wouldn't normaly say, I know I've said a thing or two I probably shouldn't have. I know I'm starting to get weak as well, can anyone say bmw K1200s but their long wheelbase concerns me a little and I know it's probably not fast enough to satisfy my twisted mind. If it doesnt run sub 10s I don't get no good out of it. Matter of fact a stock busa doesn't do anything, it take a full system ,power commander , dyno tune, gear change to trip my trigger. I'm hoping thats where the zx14 is stock and no place to go but quicker. Damn here I go pumping myself up again, come on Kawasaki. They say all things good are worth waiting for , then the ZX14 must be spectacular!
