It's been a month since I picked mine up, and I've only seen one other on the road. That was two weekends after I got mine. It was in Cresson, TX, Southwest of Fort Worth near Granbury. It was red and being ridden 2-up. They passed me while my ride group was taking a break at a convenience store.
I saw another red at a dealer recently, but that doesn't count

None on the road, and the black one at the local dealership is going to be ridden by its new owner back to New York . . . from the Seattle area.

I haven't seen any 14s yet on the street...Saw a '06 ZX10 though, looks sweet...
I am going to a couple DragRacing track rentals so I hope to see a 14 and a '06 ZX10...I want to take a few passes on them!!!

Only have seen mine.....I did talk to a guy the is kind of a pro drag racer( or so he said) Some other people backed up his story ..He said he ran 9.30s at BMP track with only 3 runs... Piped no PC strapped and stock wheel base ...He also said the zx14 is slow and that he has run 9.20s on a stock busa with no pipe or strap . But after that he said he was picking up a new 14 for himself this week ..I called bull shit.... Why in the hell doesn't he get a busa if the zx14 is slow ???

Seening them here...at least 5 in the last 2 weeks (no blue ones yet though) ...all parked though...not running. I've heard that you need a special license to drive them due to the abundance or HP and TQ. Guess most of the riders don't have one though, maybe that's why I always see them parked. :P

Sounds like he's fullla shit...having owned Busa's before and the 14 now...I can tell you that the 14 kicks the Busa's ass from here to kingdom come, and not by 1/10th either in the 1/4...much more than that...There is nothing the Busa does that the 14 doesn't do better, MUCH. Guy is a  , probably TonyTurdFuck's brother.
