That custom ZX14 of Roaring toyz has a custom wheels and a single sided solid arm that adds about 50 pounds to the bike and they also had a full tank which adds another 30 pounds which is 80 total, not to mention all the chrome, bar ends morrors,swingarm caps.
i bet the bike weighs about 85 to 90 more than a stocker.
Cant go very fast like that....
Why talk weight when we don't even know the times?

Guys go to kmc web and look at the vid with specs, yes it will fit, the only thing they changed is a few extra welds and the batt box cover under the tank is now metal instead of plastic,u will have to use your stock sprocket cover and nut for speed sensor. geesh!

no doubt the bike was in the 9's on that vid, even with the extra weight it still looked quicker then the swb passes Rickey made in vegas. But my bike would probably smoke that one- that is if my motor was in one piece..

But they were told not to put out any times or numbers because this is a pre-production bike. If the numbers turn out not to be representative of the production bikes then Kawi would shoot themselves in the foot, they are just protecting their interests.

i think they know the production bike is slower and less power than pre- production because of all emmision and govermental regulations bullshit!! well.. that make sense!!
..and that is why everything is hush.. hush..

Rickey didnt have a choice as to what track they used. It was a near by track that was available that they could rent for the day without being hassled.
We will be digging into the hart of this engine ASAP. First on the list is a supersport head and our 47mm throttle bodies. Then we will move on from there.
I cant wait to get my hands on a head.
