zx14 engine braking under decel
i know your 14s are brand new and will loosen up all the way by 4000 miles ..... what i want to know is riders that had zx12r's what do you think at this point.---- when you chop the throttle will it coast or feel like the brakes are on.

Engine braking is more apparent in 1st.....but the rest of the gears are more coasting, till you get to the big rev''s.

Engine braking is much better than the ZZR1200 was, but that was also a heavier bike with lower compression, and similar tall gearing, so it's not much of a contest.

Engine braking is very good over 5000 rpm!
