Cycle World Cover
Kinda reminds me of 1990 all over again. That was the best cover I've ever seen, of coarse No Top Speed, No best 1/4 mile, No here and Now. Sorry both that last part Just venting.

How about best 1/8 on farm track in Texas? LOL! Soon, we'll see the numbers that they have in the back pages with the best top gear 60-80 roll on's, best 0-60 and best 1/4's etc...

FBA I have to admit I was a bit disappointed in the numbers or lack there of. If you were around in 1990 that cover said it all, still a nice write up just no numbers. I'm sure you are correct in performance arena I just expected a little more information with a cover like this.

We'll have some fresh-meat numbers from that Texas hay field on Wednesday from what I hear. Heck, I might even go watch.
Hey, I could line up beside that other 14 in the 1/8th and show everyone a spankin' fast 8.00 with my 250lb butt on board!

Looking closer at the photo, I like the red mirrors. Becha that is what makes this bike so fast.

I started getting Mags about Nov 1990, but I remember reading some back issues in a local Library. It will be easy to find, I drooled all over it. It's possible the next or August Issue Cycle World will do the same thing but I'm thinking there is a serious chance that the ZX-14 will win Motorcycle of the year.
