Actually, I would say what we would really need to do this is my opinion but there's a lot of people that will be judgmental about this.
First of all we all know smokinZX14 is one of the all-around track guys and what we need is no smoking mirrors and I believe if everybody would be willing to donate $20 every six months to allow him to have his own personal thread that only donators could access it. This would be an incentive for him to stay neutral and to give everybody the correct information that they are asking for and allow him financially to be able to go out and do the research and development without breaking his bank. I'm willing to pay for VIP membership of $20 every six months to have access to the information once he receives the new 2012 ZX14R model.
Ricky mentioned because of him a lot of us own a ZX14..
Actually I really didn't know much about Ricky, so that's not the reason I own one..
Now about Brock and Roaring Toyz in the short period of time that I did my research and information I have received so far off this message board makes me feel really confident on buying something from them. It feels like my money is well worth their research and development, because of the devotion that they put in their products which matters to me..

SO lets not compare the zx14r to a gen2 busa that ran same day, same time, same air, same location... because somebody gonna get butt hurt it didn't get beat by 3 tenths and 5 mph.... but instead we'll believe anything thats told to us like good little zx14 owners and keep our mouths shut ..
a stock wheel base bike that runs an 8.99 with 170 lb rider is not an outstanding number?
and drama,drama drama coming from the board drama queen....lmfao...
yep board drama queen.... don't believe me/ go back thru all of your post from day one...any bueaty shop owner would be proud to have you as a client, they like catty drama queen type....LMFAO...

Brock....I agree with you whole heartedly! I cannot believe that all my efforts in reporting early testing of the new 14R has been met with so much criticism........ON A ZX14 FORUM! I do this and report my findings as nothing more than a courtesy! I have ABSOLUTELY nothi1ng to gain from giving what I thought were loyal 14 owners, an insight on the progression of a new model, I can see if I posted the 14's progress on a Busa forum and got all this skepticism, and downright negativity, but since I AM THE SAME PERSON WHO'S BEEN THE FACE OF THE 14 SINCE 2006, and the 1st one to ever race ,and win on a 14 in a sea of Busa's I cant see why I continue to put myself out there for MY OWN 14 riders to discredit or outright accuse me of being untrustworthy......
Ricky and Brock;
You two bring alot to the table and your effort and time is commendable and appreciated!!!!
I have been wanting to say this for YEARS now. Ever since the 2000 ZX12R came out (I received the First one in Arizona), a "Busa Mentality" emerged. There was a threat to the "King". Came in a smaller package, was neutered and was just as fast (I won't even go into how the 12 destroys a Busa on a road course). A collective group of enthusiasts created the ZX12RZone. The menatality was intelligent and resourceful like Y2K, Entropy, Doug and many others!
The real world reality was the 12 was actually faster and the EyeAbusa boys did not like it.
Ever since the 14 came out and the ZX14 Forum was created on this site, that mentality came with it. We all know the long time memebers and what they have to offer. Since 06', a new crowd filtered in and some add alot to what the 14 can do and has become. However, the criticism, accusations and bashing that came with the Busa crowd is more like the "L.A. Busa" site and that is dissapointing.
Please allow yourself to shake it off guys and understand the source.
Keep kickin' some A$$ Boys!

IT'S A COMMERCIAL SON...... advertising... get over it... move on... why would you choose to pay more attention to the damn staged commercial than you do to some hard numbers given to you..... because you're a drama queen, thats why... If the goddamn thing had of shot gold nuggets out of the tail pipe on its way to a 8.88 pass and fixed Brock and Rickey a sandwhich at the end of the run drama queen would have been bitching cause there was mayo instead of mustard on the sandwhich.....

Sure would be nice to hear whole story on this if that happened it's bullshit. we had a guy try to pull a fast one at our local track as well. he sucks at bracket racing cut's bad lights everytime, so he got spanked first round as always then bought back in and we caught him trying to let his boy run the buy back round because hes a decent rider. wasn't the first time I guess but I called them on it and they were out for rest of year. hate cheaters.

Wow, I surely didn't see this coming..... but just the same..... I guess you guys will have to purchase and learn from there......
Famous1.... stop licking your own nut juice... you know damn well the 2nd gen busa isn't that fast.... common sense will tell you that bike with less power is capable of going faster than bike with more power.... especially with a short wheel base....
What you need to do is direct your fustrations to Suzuki Corp and not in this forum....

with that said, I will run you with my zx10... I weigh 212 lbs in short, it's 61 inches, with slip on.... better yet, I will foot shift....you on your busa... match mod for mod

it was only a guess, Ronnie is a good rider, whatever the bike has I know Ronnie will get it. I am looking forward to see what it will do. Ronnie is heavy, but that ET can be adjusted.

This is too funny, Famous1 you licking your own nut juice? That is nasty!
Anyways, let Ricky do what he wants to do clearly he's received more criticism at the track over the years of racing and this shouldn't compare much to that. I believe sometimes we all have bad days and maybe he just had one yesterday.

+1 lost alot of respect if this pans out to be true, can't stand shit like that. if you wanted to prove how fast the bike was then run it at another time. Of course I could see what he did, if before hand he told the officals hey give this guy the round win we just want a time trail to see how fast we will go even though not sure that's right to the other competition. there's two sides to every stroy but the side that's out there dosn't sound very good. keep waiting for the man himself to clear this up but not seeing anything.

Would love to hear the other side to this story. The other site made it sound like they also switched leathers? Wasn't there myself so can only go by what I've read.

I thought it was about the new 14R not being worth buying unless it can be proved to perform to everyones hopes and expectations. All before delivery date and that must be guaranteed also.
