It's here.............................................................
Got my zx14 today !!!! Dealer only got one and it's red and it's all mine !!!!!!!I wanted black but i would have to wait longer than i allready have to get it ....NO WAY ......I only got a short ride but what a ride !!! I will be going to bike night tonight and stay out late breaking her in ....It's much cooler at night here in FL great for break in.......
MAN is this thing smooth !!! and Quite!!! Shifts like Butter ... And my 50 year old eyes can see the gauges... Also i don't have to look at my elbows in the mirrors.!!
I hit the gas in first gear at about 3 grand and when she hit 5 grand the front end came up nice and quick, i let off and putt her back down nice and soft.....This thing feels way lighter than it is , not zx10 light but much lighter that a Busa ....Turns easy as pie ....
Warning to you that have not got your zx14 the brakes are really good, i'm mean really good!!! If you are coming from a zx10 or Busa becarefull...One finger will get you in trouble real fast !!!
