Just because I wanted to see what the power was they way you would ride it on the street.
I have no doubt it would hit 200 with a 1000 miles on it and the air cleaner out. and who knows I'm sure Brock is still perfecting th maps a bit.

As long as the suspension is valved and sprung right on either bike, the zx14 likely will have slight edge in handling... the Busa layout has not changed and most comparisons have said the zx14 handles better...
ZX14 has the best brakes.
That said, neither are literbikes or 600's, so for street riding likely all about the rider...

Bently,
I rode my friends 08 Busa with alienhead & pc. Your bike & his consistently dyno'd the same #'s when they were stock & now piped. There within 1hp. Amazaing how the bike feels with the stock exhaust removed - handling felt great. Bike revs so fast & pulls hard to redline. Weather is cold but looking forward to rifding a 08 zx14 somehow next year.

That's cool to know because I felt this dyno is pretty close.

The numbers you're putting out are great, but it's interesting that you only picked up 7hp from stock with the Alien Head 195hp, I think you posted 188hp stock with filter in, if that's ture then the Busa is tuned way better from the factory with stock exhaust than most bikes and explains why it runs so good stock, most 14's pickup 15 to 20hp after pipe/pc, I know mine did.

Yes I would say suzukis stock exhaust kicks ass but theres more to it then just peak numbers it picked up 11 hp between 7 and 8500 and now holds it's peak power about 1200 rpm longer.
