Meh, my neighbor has a twin turbo Busa with nitrous

rockNroll · July 19th, 2011, 03:35 PM

Why would you die?

Xoulrath · July 19th, 2011, 03:39 PM

Haven't you heard, rock? Anything greater than 250cc's is a death trap.

ducducgooseit · July 19th, 2011, 04:12 PM

And so, just exactly why did the bike need to be restored?

blink · July 19th, 2011, 04:28 PM

That's so awesome. Because half the people can't handle a 600, let alone 1400cc.

Merc250r · July 19th, 2011, 04:33 PM

that bike is pretty gay. More like small penis syndrome

New plastics, tank, etc.....sounds to me like a salvage job.

Racer x · July 19th, 2011, 05:37 PM

I am jaded but I figure 215 top speed .go sevens maybe with Ricky riding. Wont even get a second look at a race track. Nice bike though,

CZroe · July 19th, 2011, 05:57 PM

I love how he tries to spin crash repairs as if it's better than a 2007 that had never been crashed because of them.

50% of the people in this forum can't handle a 250-just sayin

KawiKid860 · July 19th, 2011, 07:37 PM

I think the point of the title is to bash on it because its a big bike with a lot of power...

Sounds to me like someone who hates anything bigger than a 250 just because it has more power than you will ever need on the streets. From what I hear, ZX-14s are wonderful, well mannered bikes great for two-up riding and touring that of course have a real nasty side when you crack the throttle. This is obviously a track bike, and a bit of a sleeper too. Although trying to make it sound like its better than new because its been rebuilt is stupid.

A pneumatic ram/cylinder is controlled by handlebar buttons/levers through a control box to move the gear lever. The air is provided by a miniature compressor which is controlled and regulated by the control box.

I think it's more likely the people who make these comments who have something to make up for.

Hahaha will you read a bit before bashing? Go read the "usability of a 600ss on actual streets" here

http://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=78587

Then you can assume I hate on 600's...

p.s remember to read my replies

Haha I've actually been paying a lot of attention to that thread :P and I reread what you said and realized what I was typing was a bit harsh but honestly I didn't feel like changing it, my bad!! As crazy as a ZX-14 is, I'll take a 636 over it any day :P I'm still far too much of a noob to even consider a 600 anyways

miss_syn · July 21st, 2011, 05:36 AM

The 14 is comfy even after 5-6 hours on it, just saying.

I sat on one and it is indeed comfy. That's a big ass bike, though.

This is my bf and I on it, he's like 6'2" and I'm somewhere much shorter than that. For some strange reason while we were waiting on someone I made him pull up to a window so I could get a picture of what we looked like on the bike.

It's pretty decently sized for someone bigger and a passenger. Plus it's pretty sexy.
Better than when he drove me to a parking lot and I was a passenger on my own bike. >.<

You might be one of them guys that goes fast now but dies later on, like when you're 90 or something.
