but at the end it dead.

I hate to that, but BMW can't make it bike.

The 01-05 Fz1/Fazer only had 135ish hp with a slip-on and jetkit and the arodynamics SUCK 158mph top speed on a long strait.My modded 01 Fz1 only hit 173mph with the stock gearing and a 36hp shot of nitrous dyno tuned to 202hp and 109ftlbs.

Stock the ZX-14's are a bit of a disapointment. Low end performance is neutered a bit by the safety nazi's at Kawasaki. But if you take out the seconday flies in the throttle boddies, put on a pipe and power commander, they are pretty stupid fast. I dynoed at 185.8 hp's at the rear wheel. Torque was around 106 ft. lbs.

Coming from a 10R you would not find that big of a change, just a little more comfort, much less wheelie prone. My bike launches hard as the front end will come up, but does not want to stand straight up like most litre bikes do

you'd take em quite nicely 99% of the time.. there is however that 1% that will take you. mainly supra highway queens etc.. fast cars do exist, although i've never lost a drag on either of my bikes, only about as many cars on my as fingers on my hands that run int hte 10 seconds down in new zealand, and almost no daily drives.

but yeah most people just race you to see what bikes can do.. i usually depart on one wheel just so it's a bit of a spectacle, they usually come past waving and tooting, thumbs up etc, no bad blood!

Keen to take the 14r for a spin, i got a streetfightered 06 10r myself.

"bikers like you are the best ones to beat"

Hasn't happened yet, although out of respect for fellow motorists, I don't race in heavy traffic like many of the morons in their cars seem to like to do....................not many street legal cars will hit 100 mph in under 5 seconds like a ZX-14 (that is for a stock one, mine is modded) I am not even shifting into second gear until about 80- 85 miles per hour.

ah ya pas de traffic

For top end like that the lack of a full fairing is more important than horsepower. FZ1 is only good for like 150 mph and R1 180 mph

bikers like you are the best ones to beat

that bike will burn an R6.....the FZR 1000 is just a semi fared,slightly detuned R1
