Smokin Performance Cycles..
Tampa Bay , FL .. Brocks Performance Dealer ..
Gen 2 ZX14R Best ET 8.43 , Best MPH 164.95
quote:I know what it took for me to run my 9.11 @ 150.88 at stock wheel base on my 09 zx14 .. It was no easy task ... So to see Ricky run a 8.99 @ 156.44 with nothing but the stock cans removed is very very telling to the power this bike makes . Add to that Ricky out weighs me by 30 to 35 pounds ..
09 zx14 piped tuned , slammed and strapped .
You can see on my 9.11 pass i beat his 60 foot time ... After that its all ZX14R .. 314 back half Vs my 321 back half .. 150.88 MPH Vs his 156.44 MPH
I think the fact that Rickey is gearing it DOWN to tame the power is also telling about the power.............every bike I've ever had I always geared it up for more power both the ZX 12 (17/46) and Gen 1 ZX 14 (16/42) I geared up...........the fact that most people are going down 1 or 2 on the rear says this bike is a beast!!!

I'm not taking away from the bike, but you can't regear any wtb 14 -1 in the front for drag racing. It makes it impossible keep the front end on the ground.
If I remember correctly, Lee geared his the same way back in the day.( -1 rear)

I'm at 4500 ft.............and its 100 degrees many times when I'm dragracing, with the loss of power due to the elevation and shitty air I can handle the 16/42 fine SWB..............that said the track I raced at was real crappy and never gave the 60 and 330 times so there is a chance I "might" have been faster with stock gearing but I definately felt faster with the 16/42.

Thanks rickey for the great report and for answering the questions asked.
As to the two Gay guys talking smack Mad Wee you heard the man say the baddest bike he had been on before this one in stock form was the 08 busa so don't trip the number don't lie.
Now once again my friend thanks for the info. It is great to see how much better the new bike runs.
It will be the bike of the year no dought. Man now stretch that beast and kill all bike in the east.
