I wouldn't change much but a digital speedometer would be a welcome addition.
As far as the build is concerned I dislike the way the fairing side-panels mount on the 2012/13 bike. Very fiddly.
........but I'd not have any other bike

Do something with those mufflers, and take the safety mode away .... and of course, shave some weight if possible ....

That's something you can do for yourself, many do. I like the idea of a head-up display though.

I ask them on the after sale survey if they would put a daytime night time dimmer button like the cars have on their dash`s.14r displays are worthless during the day light.

Mark, a darker windscreen helps a LOT.
What Bob said...those fiddly panels.
Lime Gree would be sweet.

Bigger buckets. Bigger cams. Bigger throttle bodies. More compression. CNC porting.
Ah, never mind, leave them alone.  I need something to do to them.

Personally I think building this outrageous bike was completely socially irresponsible. I suggest Kawi cancel all future models, burn the blue prints and crush the remaining stock immediately - now that I have mine!

I doubt they will do anything drastic without any competition.
As long as Suzuki is only changing colors and brakes on the Busa, Kawi has no need to spend tons of money on R&D for a new bike.

Seriously speaking - Electric (BMW style) shifter and launch control would be nice.

Really digital speedometer? Never liked digital gauges, I think the brain proccess the analog/needle displays easier/faster then digital. Besides, its fun watching the needles sweep as you accelerate..

Yes! A built in steering dampner, tucked away neatly under the triple instead of on top.. would be awesome! I don't like the looks of the aftermarket dampners. It would be great if it was electronic and would adjust on it's own according to the riding condition. However, I've heard that they are definitely necessary on the 14r due to all that power. Kawi! i hope you are listening! lol

my number one complaint is that dam banana seat, please do something with the seat that doesnt involve having a banana seat, other than that my other suggestions would be a
Quick shift & steering dampner
