Yeah I know, ok here's the deal. I was talkin 2 a saleman at a local cycle world and said he owned an 07 14 wit flyes pulled pc3 full exhaust etc and he said his 08 busa STOCK was much faster on the street. I was floored. Ya think he's outta his mind or is he just partial 2 Suzuki for perhaps some incentives for sellin Busas,I don't know. If I were 2 trade it in it wouldn't be because its slow cause it is much more powerful then my 02 Busa I know dat for a fact.

It cranked out 187hp and 114 lbs of torque on Gadsons dyno. My 02 Busa was at 163hp wit similar mods that's why I think that salesman was smokin crack.

A Stock Busa way faster than a 14? His out of his mind!! He wants to get rid of the busa so he can get your 14!

Never thought of it like that,pretty funny stuff. Do the new Busas have secondaries that choke it up like the 14?

In order to get back 2 where you are on that 14(power/torque), you will have to invest bolt-ons for the busa. If you are looking for a new bike and want to spend additional money in these tough economic times, then go ahead. IMHO- I would keep my 14!

they have secondaries, but they open very early, if I remember right it was around 4k, I sold a 08 Booza to get my 2nd ZX-14, my 09 ZX-14 is faster than my 08 Booza with the same mods.

Lmfao... knew it would come up sooner or later. I just figured that it would be bob that posted it. I haven't had any problems with busas mod for mod, but there's always that exceptional running bike with a jockey that's waiting out there somewhere. The only way I would trade my piped 14 for a busa is if it had a turbo and a pretty new mac arm with an air shifter.

If I went with Brock's system over my full Muzzy would I notice a lot more power on the street or would it be not enough hp for the money?
