MY NEW ZX14r IS HOME NOW
03/15/12 12:33 PM

My dealer called me up today and told me that they needed my bike out of there to make more room for new inventory I told them I wanted to pick her up at the end of this month because of the warranty starting the date you roll it out the door. So they made me an offer that I could not refuse. I got a 4 year warranty for half price and they are charging me $100.00 for a tire swap getting rid of the stock Metelers for Michelins Power Pure's or Pilot Power 2CT I never got the chance to finish my 1st set of Power Pure's.

4 years warranty is not too bad compensation - well done.

Thanks guys!

Yeah I could not believe when they offered that to me just to get it out of there. I can't wait to get her back and put some miles on it. I picked her up and took her straight to the performance shop to finish up the rest of the Toyz.

OK my full 2007 Ackro pipe fits and run on the new ZX14r the numbers on 2 pulls where HP@197 an HP@199 it was 43 degrees out maybe a little warmer inside.

Now that was with just the pipe, wheel bearings and a reflashed ECU no Powercommander yet. Work is still in progress will report more when I have more info. for you guys.

Davesxx01,

Ivan will send it back to get reflashed with some mod's to it with Ivan's new map should be EYE OPENING Different!!

Last week I took a ride up to Fall River MASS. it was about 285 miles each way and it was a good run. I'm going back up there in 2 weeks so when I have everything from Ivan in I will give a report on the difference...

Here's my

I'm here to give my 1st. Report. About 3 months ago I put the Akrapovic Full Racing Exhaust Hexagonal form my 2007 ZX14 too my new 2012 ZX14r I also got the bike reflash at the same time. It run a little rough it would backfire on deaccelraction from time to time. The gas mileage was not the greatest don't get me wrong there was power there but it was very raw there was delays in the throttle response all over in every gear nothing big but it was there.

Week before last I took a ride up to Vanson Leather in Fall River MASS. it was a 187 miles each way. I felt that with the 1st flash it was good in the 1st through 4 gears 5th an 6th gears were rather flat not a pulling hard gears at all! An we were hitting speeds of 160-170 at times but we even hit 185 with room togo we were mostly running at 80-90 mph. With 5th an 6th gear the gas mileage would tank and I would loss 3 to 4 bars within 50 miles of running at 80-90 mph. and this was all done in FULL/1 mode and FULL/-off mode cause i could not remember to shut it off all the time. Also she was running hot from 198-225 degrees but again it a ZX14r they always run hot my 07 ZX14 ran hot and my 2012 I would say ran a little hotter just because it's a bigger motor. The outside temp. was 92 degrees out not to humid.

Ok I got my bike back from Ivan on Saturday!

THE LIST OF GOODS

1. PC V
2. A new reflash
3. Ivan's custom map

On Sunday I went on a ride up-state with some friends for run about 160 miles round trip. It was a hot an humid that day about 91 degrees out. Now that I got my baby back here are my findings.

It's a night an day difference. The bike now is faster an much smoother then the 1st flash. I will say the new mods are a very nice add-on's. She is now cooler to ride my ride on Sunday was great I never went above 215 degrees an this was at a light so all day I was anywhere from 198-215 degrees. There is no more backfiring on acceleration or de-acceleration the throttle response is now right there all the time! The power is great the best way for me to explain it is now she is more refined and is more spot on then before an now 5th an 6th gears are no longer flat to me they pull like the 1st 4 gears do. Now all six are right an tight!! Gas mileage is much better though I did not spend much time on the highway but when I did I still had my gas in the tank instead of leaving it all over the highway. I have to tell you 3rd gear is INSANE she pulls like a S.O.A.B. now... I still have the gear indicator an everything and now it remembers what mode I left it in when I turn the bike off/on I love that because I always forget to reset it to where I want it.

I ran my boy who has a 2008 Hayabusa piped, powercommander, TRE and all that other stuff we even weigh about the same we did a roll on from 2nd gear and it wasn't even close then did a roll on starting from 3rd gear an then had the same outcome and this was done in LOW/1. Now I know I need more time in the saddle but I have to let you all know Ivan has his $hit on point!

He has out done himself yet again!!

More reports will follow...
