It would appear so going by bore and stroke in the video.

Maybe this is deliberate deceit to keep us from seeing the real ZX14 untill its real release .. Or maybe it is just a cruel joke by someone ? If the Ads are fake why is Ricky and Kawi not saying something, anything ? Does Bikeland have something to do with this ? The Ads show up here first, why ?
These guys are behind the videos.. :}

it links directly to kawasaki motor corps usa website....
A technical correction... linking to a site proves nothing... however that IS PART OF kawasaki.com, not just linking to it. You can't build a hostname (ninja14r) without the say of the domain controller (kawasaki.com).

I can say the bike is real....I may not work for kawasaki anymore but alot of long term plans for new models were revealed to me during my 14 year tenure.
I even had a little input in C & G.
I hope for Kawi's sake that they got things right.

My feeling is 65mm stroke they can do it without changing block head etc be cheapest factory upgrade. Of course would need bigger T/Bs ports cams and such.

Probably gonna have a taller deck height to allow longer rods. The LR is only 1.85 on the current model and it would drop to 1.73 @ 65mm. I'm sure the piston is about as short as practical, so they would have no choice but to make a taller deck, and my guess is they will stay with the one piece block. It's just a stronger setup.
