#1 is the bore spacing on the Pistons the same or did they change it
#2 did they use the ZX 10 valve train or is it the same cylinder head as last year
#3 did the throttle bodies change size
#4 are the engine case the same as last year
they probably won't answer these questions but it won't hurt to ask.

Why do you think they would change the bore spacing if the bore is the same?................I'm guessing your hoping its a whole new engine that is more mod friendly?

Other than the obvious questions of engine specs ( dimensions - hp - tq - comp. - etc).... I would like to know if the brakes have been up graded. Are the front rotors changed in size, or cooling design? Although most agree the stock brakes have good feel and power, some of us have experienced warped front rotors.
I'd also like to know about the clutch and wheather or not the same design and or components are used. ?
Suspension /chasis design questions....will there be a more agressive shock package and will rear ride height be adjustable?? Is the swingarm the same in size, rigidity ?

Hopefully the bike has abs standard not none or at least an option. If it were standard would it have the speed pick up using abs sensor and not on the front sprocket. Talked to someone with a 1000rr BMW he said the speed was within a couple mph at over 170 gps comparison.

I wonder if they've went more towards the sport-touring side of the equation (in other words bigger, heavier and plusher), or more sporty than the current version? Or kept the same basic frame/platform?

Is the rear shock 'beefier' than the previous models?
Does it have a bigger, brighter launch light and shift light that's easier to see than the small LED from the previous models?
Will the U.S. version have a restricted ECU like the ZX-10?
Does it have secondary butterflies? If so, at what RPM do they open?
Will it have one radiator fan or two?
Does it have a factory steering stabilizer?

Y2K you really should have asked about the paint schemes and the seat comfort items also.

Will the 14 get the R designation? If so, is this forum going to be renamed?
Were there any upgrades besides a 2nd fan to cool the beast?
Can traction control be bypassed, turned off, or removed completely?
