WOW! What a difference a decent ride makes
Hey there people!
I've just got back from a nice 200Km (120 mile) ride where there was lots of hills and fairly spirited speeds mostly between 120Km/h and 180Km/h and since getting back into boring (policed) suburbia the 14R feels like she's picked up at least 20HP!!!
Before the ride it felt ok but not that remarkable, and at times it seemed a bit reluctant to 'go' but now the throttle is sooooo much more responsive and it just wants to launch forwards in a flurry of speed evey time I open the throttle - even just a little!
All I can say is these ZX-14R's of ours don't seem to like going putt-putt-putt arounf town - they need to stretch their legs in the country from time to time. It's definitely done mine a world of good  Happy days - I'm smiling like she was...
Cheers!

Who is "she," and why didn't I get one w/my black 14R? Nice...on both counts.

Mate we got one of those free with every 14R sold in Australia! Mind you, since our 14R's cost like $20K each I think we needed to!
