C14 dyno results by 2Brothers
Looks like Kawasaki was sandbagging on the specs. The dyno output puts the crank hp well over 160. Very impressive results for a shaft drive bike:

Motorcycle Consumer News dynometer says the FJR has 120.7 HP and 87.6 TQ. Two Brothers just dynoed the C-14 at 142.7 hp and 95.5 Tq. I've drove 2 FJR's and the C-14 feels considerably stouter everywhere. Not trying to start anything just calling it as I see it. And feel it.

Someone on the COG web site apparently figured out that the chart is from a ZX14:

No, at first it was pointing to the ZX14 dyno, but it was updated recently to the correct dyno sheet for the c14. The ZX14 dynos at around 170rwhp.
