You notice that for some strange reason the magazines have NOT done the all out head-to-head, no holds barred tests of the 'big' bikes?
I thought for sure they would have been hyping it up with their "NEXT ISSUE" crap.

I raced against my 10R and my R1...needless to say, the 14 won each time...I also raced a K1200S which is in our bike class...I beat that like it was standing still...and it's not slow...ZX14, king of the crop! Story is too boring to share...the 14 always eats everything around...need to try it against a 502 supercharged Boss Hoss...

I know what you all are say'n, It is like the 14 is bike repellant, In my truck I see tons of bikes. Hop on the 14 they disappear!!

That's exactly right! My buddy rides an 06 636 & he valiantly tries to run with me I hear him screaming that thing silly & I just motor away from him effortlessly & never break 7K.

just got off the road against a busa, i was a bad boy, i normally don't fall for the banana in the tail pipe, but i did.
me and a bunch of guy were at Wild wing talking trash about who's bike is the fastest, a couple of busa's, a few 14's, 12's and the rest 600- 1000's.
we jump on the Interstate, haulin _ss, the 12 jumped out first, then a zx-9, then me on my 14, then here comes this busa.
i pass the 12 & 9, and signal the busa to come on and take the lead, he takes off.
we weave in and out of traffic, i get a bead on him, reel him in, he move, i move, we go
back and forth like two fighter jets in a top gun movie.
this is crazy, and i know better then that, traffic is thick, we roll up on some cars getting
ready to change lanes, just when i'm getting ready to pass this sucker, we both brake,
at the same time this cat goes for the median, just to win the race! i lost or did i !
we get to the spot, i tell him if that's all he has, he better park that slow _ss busa, he ask
me did i pass him, i said, i was getting ready to pass him when he made that kamikaze
move to the median. now i'm left, with the should i had took the median too.
HELL NO, just to win! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i told him, you can have that one!! i'm a lot smarter then that! but boy does it hurt!!
i'm a big boy, i'll get over it!
still repn kawz

Yes, seems like alot of busa guys are dead set on only a busa and all other bikes are junk and ugly and slow etc. I love my 14 but would go back to a busa when it comes out faster then a 14 if it ever does.

My opinion is that even if I do get a 14, I'll definately get the new busa to go along with it.
I like riding BOTH my 12 and busas, that is why I kept them. 'Outsiders' think they are the same.

Yeah...I've been to the Busa sites and those guys are almost as bad as Harley riders.

Ya think so. Really the only people who have anything negative to say about it Suzuki riders and mainly Hayabusa riders..

A TurboBoosa is T-Rex!
Not all Boosa riders are ragging on the ZX and vice-versa, I was looking at a black ZX-14 online, but I come out cheaper to just turbo my Boosa, I am scheduled to look at a blue ZX-14 in person today, who knows I may be a two bike owner.

it is said that one should enjoy the best of both worlds,and since i own both a busa and a 14 that is what i am doing. i also do not have any allegiance for a particular brand,although i do have a soft spot in my heart for kawis as i got my start in this biz almost 30 years ago at a kawi dealer.
