That's what this thing does! It's so smooth, nonchalant, almost bored, that you just find yourself doing a buck 50 making a simple pass on the highway. It doesn't ever change its disposition. It's super gentle and then you're going 175. And the faster it goes, the more stable it feels, like it's been waiting on you to use a little gas. I dont know, you're right, you need to have the ability to control yourself with this thing. Up to you.

The 12R was like that, you think you're doing 70, look at the clocks and see 120. That's the beauty of them though; not necessarily the outright acceleration from 0 but how fast it picks up and how it behaves while it's already going fast.

My previous bike was a 2006 Hayabusa. It was a Monster of a bike (I've had several bikes before- Virago 750, Kawasaki 550, and for may years, a Yamaha Virago 750 ). My current bike is a Kawasaki 2016 ZX14R SE. It's a total MONSTER. Seriously, the way it pulls from 80mph to 140mph is un-freaking-believable. I have to say this again - un-freaking-believable. When people see my jacket or helmet, and ask me what bike I ride, I say that I don't ride a "bike". I explain to them that I have a saddle on Godzilla - and I do the best I can to hang on...

Bro! Awesome job on the rebuild. A few weeks ago I (we) drove from eastern PA to the far end of Massachusetts to pick up a 2008 ZX14. Rode it home. Very comfortable ride. I was impressed. It was a very nice experience and I only got fatigued after 4 hours. Love that bike. It just wants to go fast. Like stupid fast. 90 feels like 40. It’s an awesome bike with an insane throttle response. Keep the damn bike and be responsible with it. I went out of my way to find one. Sell your VFR and keep this. Just remember.... less is more. Cheers!

This bike is superb for quickly touring vast places like Australia, or even the Great Plains of North America-where you have empty and long straight roads with lots of wind. I rode it for about 8000 mi/13000 km; it was incredibly comfortable, solidly planted on the highway, and with so much effortless passing power. I wish Kawasaki updated it by changing the dashboard, full-LED lighting, and corner ABS.

I've had a VFR1200FD (173hp, EU spec) for the past season, great bike but I felt like I need a little bit more, especially at the low range, so I've sold it and looking for a ZX14R for the upcoming season. You can get yourself in trouble even on a 50cc if you're doing weird things and vice versa, can ride a 200hp hyperbike with no issues if you know what are you doing. I've been riding 200+ km/h (it's like 140 mph I guess?) like every single day, no issues. Ride safe, thanks for the review! 🤙

Best thing about zx14r … you can keep it in 6th gear and ride from 25-mph to 186-mph … zx14r holds its lane when passing semi trucks … no need to downshift from 6th gear to pass cars … when you keep it stock … it’s relatively quiet and doesn’t attack too much attention … it’s very comfortable … brakes are very good … 80+ in the rain (low power / level 3) seems as stable as riding in dry weather … easy to clean the chain and remove front/rear tires … there’s really no reason to change stock configuration if you’re just doing street riding … easy to do u-turns on 20-ft street (just go to move your wrists out the way) … has safety Full Power / Level 3 or Level 2 so you don’t have to worry about tire coming up or rear wheel breaking traction … just peg the throttle and hold on … take off from light … quick shift from 1 to 6 at 40-mph and quietly sneak away from traffic … no one will notice you quietly accelerated to 100-mph … only thing I can say is always wear full protection from head, to jacket (rated AAA) , to pants (rated AAA) to gloves to shoes.

I remember one time (not a true story!): A dude passes me on the highway (Mexico) going maybe 140 on an r6, tucked in, 360 cam, waves at me. I'm like, "oh yes", I then "blow his doors off" with an extremely upright body position that ends by gapping a 600 by about 4 Marie Calendar's restaurants. This bike will do anything, it will cook you an egg Omelette that could be presented to Gordon Ramsey himself. This bike will make you so feel engorged with the pride of owning a literal nuclear bomb that you WILL take out a loan for it. Children and Adults alike will dance in praise as you roll through the streets, not because of you, but because of the Boeing 747 between your legs. This NASA Spaceshutt- I mean, the ZX-14R, will later be classified by extraterrestrial beings as one of humanity's greatest accomplishments on display, a stoic art of what we left behind, leaving our predecessors unbeknownst of how such primitive technology was our pinnacle of success. A quickshifter? No, the 1400cc powerplant has a long stroke and provides a similar feeling to what I can only describe as a 80's-90's Group C LeMans racecar. Shifting this monster with a heavy hydraulic clutch, then to be hit by 116 ft-lb's of torque when dropped forward into the next gear. The ZX14R is brutal, is it a raw machine, it will conquer your enemies and bring your friends closer, it also has ABS and Trac control: )

I think I might pick a black one up as my next ride. Thanks for the video sir, I have to agree with all your points on this bike. By the way I used to own and love a pre 98VTEC VFR, so I guess my question is should I buy a ZX14 as an only bike? Keep it and move the VFR, you said it yourself its better!

It has the best ergonomics I've tried on any bike, and I could easily just ride that thing all day long. It's built for that stuff. As much as I love the Busa as well, its ergonomics is just built for tiny people so I could never own one of those. The Busa is more nimble than the ZX14R, but once you get up to speed it's hardly noticeable. I'd still choose the ZX14R any day over the Busa, simply because of ergonomics.

This is my dream motorcycle my dads friend used to have a Kawasaki Ninja ZX14 in electra blue. I hope I find a zx14 in electra blue after I graduate high school next year. When I get it I might probably fly by my dad's friends house to suprise him.

Awesome bike and great rebuild! I do have a 2013 VFR 1200 F and I absolutely love it. ABS, traction control, linked brakes, perfect mirrors, ridiculous power and torque and it is fast. Planted at any speed, especially into the triple digits. I also have a nicely restored 84' VF 700 F. I love that bike as well, but it is raw and does not leave a lot of room for error. I am much more confident on the 1200 because of the features on it. Ride safe brother!

Go for a overnight tour on it, you will see that it is brilliant as well. Throw a tank bag on the front and a bag on the back, use the inbuilt strap retractable clamps and you have ample space for your gear.

I have one of these and the same year. I have not gone faster than 160km or 100mph. Just because it can, doesn't mean you should. It will make cars go backwards, stretch your arms and flatten your eyeballs but like any trill sport, there are old and bold but not two are the same. Ride carefully out there brothers and brotheresses.

Any gear is the right gear in a 14R. It's a really easy bike to ride...until you really open it up...over 7K it's a whole different motorcycle.....with the right tires, it will deal with a litrebikes in the twisties quite easily. It don't weigh less the a Bus with the stock cannons on....38 pounds of slip one.. ..holy shit. 2012s don't get ABS in North America, sadly. Can you tell I have the same bike? Keep it...its an everything bike....I did 189 mph in a standing start 1/2 mile airport event on my 2012 and I ride it casual all the time. Great review!

Would love to see you do the same project with a Busa and if you can afford keep both for a little to compare both the build and the ride, would be wonderful. Then, keep the one you like most or sell both. That’s a lot cool content...

you are insane man going that fast thing is the bike looked like it was going so casually at that speed. I would say keep it for the summer and sell it next season unless there's an incredible opportunity. I could never put that much work into a bike and not ride the hell out of it for a season or two

Would have loved a ZZR 1400 but bought a Hayabusa instead. Same weight almost, Almost dropped it walking it backwards, torn a calf muscle and got a blood clot for my trouble. Sold it two weeks ago, bought a brand new Honda CBR650R. But I' Missing the Busa now, wish I had kept it.
