ZX14 vs SuperDuke
Just took my SD out for a short trip. First ride on it since I got it sent from the states, and all I can say is WOW!
As much as I love the 14 and the 12, I can seriously say that I now have a new favorite bike.
If any of you guys get a chance to ride one, go for it. Just be ready to buy one cause you'll want one.
Amazing handling, amazing power. Feels like a dirt bike with twice the power.
I was going to sell this one, as I stood to make a fair chunk on it, but now I think I may do some upgrades, probly an Akro system and maybe some bst's.

Safe to say that the duke gets more looks than anything. Even had a group of harley guys drooling over it
After saying how great the duke is, I just took the 12 out for the first time after installing the BST's and fixing the fuel map, and it still is really good. With the ohlins stuff, the offset yokes and the carbon wheels, this thing handles like no other 12.
I believe my 14 will spend a fair bit of time this season with the cover on it.

I had a short dragrace from a traffic light against a Duc 1098 and an isle of Mann R1 and I got em both hard through 4th gear. Never seen an engine that makes so much power on the bottom that keeps building all the way to redline.
