here you go guys, I did the best I could, it's been 4 years since I have raced a stock wheelbase bike, I did run 15 pounds of air in the rear tire, full tank of gas, that could have been some effect of my runs, I weighed before I left 210 pounds.
The numbers may not impress but I can tell you when my swingarm is installed I will make this bike fly. Remember this was my "first" trip to the track on this bike, next week would be faster but I'm not going back till the mods are on it, maybe 2 weeks.
Here it is - the WORLD RECORD for a production ZX-14R!!!

If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Mph will be lost i the 1/8 th mile if you can't get a 60/330. At Kott in April, I had a chattering clutch with bent steels. The bike was stretched but I couldnt get better then 1.67 so my 1/8 th mile mph was 117. I changed the clutch and got high 1.4's not long after that and it went 122 avg. That's 5mph just from getting my short times down to where I could use more of the track wot. Don't forget, my only problem was coming off the clutch. Wee has that problem plus not ever being WOT at the right revs from 1-2 nd gear-so there is even more mph to be picked up.Am I saying wee will go 125 mph in the 8th with that fixed? Damn strait I am...

quote:1BAD I am not trying to pick a fight, but I haven't posted much on this site but now that I have a 14 I will, so maybe I am out of line. But, why do seem so negative all the time, your post just seem like you doubt anything somebody has to say unless you can verify it. Give the bike a chance before you say that it isn't any better than gen 1, you notice I don't say anything because I have never ridden a 14 before but it sure does seem like a pretty potent bike for a stock oem motor. I can't believe that you are bad person because no one has said anything about you but come on man not everyone is professional caliber rider, me definately included. wheelie way to go out there and be the guinea pig and try and give everyone some feedback. Tom
i haven't said 1 thing about the rider .. in fact the rider (wee) did better than rickey did in san diego on the zx14r same set-up .. but what i'm at is about the power.. i've owned more zx14's than anybody on this forum .. and from what i was expecting from a 4mm stroke and ported head and all the other refinements over the gen1's .. just ain't seeing it . i know its still early.. but somewhere its been denutted
the bike is too short to use all of the power..... simple. do you drag race?
