I would think that the most uncomfortable part of riding a 1400cc bike would be having to maneuver the thing! Especially coming to stops and tight turns. I will try to get some demo days this year!

It's technically considered a cruiser and yes, like the hayabusa it is designed for straightline and not curves.

Everytime I see the ZX14, my heart skips a beat.

So much want. But it costs too much $$$$ and I dont think its practical for the kind of riding I do. But, who knows?

So what's your point? I didn't say it couldn't lean. You can lean a goldwing if you want. But it's designed to just cruise. The insurance on the zx14 is cheaper than when he had his zx10r because it is classified as a cruiser.

Let's not go down the "too much power for the street" road in yet another thread. It's too much power for your taste as a rider. That's fine; don't buy one.

Who'd have thought that little 'r' could make such a difference!

FWIW, the new 300 is missing an R. Need to go find that R!

Even lowered and stretched, the '12 14Rs did pretty well around the dragstrip (that one turn at the end). And a buddy's '06 I rode a while back handled backroads pretty well too. Given my predisposition for using equipment slightly outside its design specifications, I'd sure as hell race one on a road course if I can ever manage to convince the boss to let me get one.
