I thought the video posted elsewhere (ZX14R on a dyno type topic) with Brock Davidson was priceless.

Brock is like a kid with a new toy, because he couldn't get Kawasaki to front him a 2012, and had to borrow the blinged-out one from Roaring Toys. So that video was the first time Brock had ever touched a 2012 ZX14.

Priceless.

And with a piggy and an alien head (easiest of his exhausts to tweak to make sure it fits well) the bling rocket ran high 8s on the strip with Ricky piloting. Foot shifting, not lowered, not set up for dragging. Set up for pictures more than anything else.

Yeah,
I saw that Priv - Brock does seem like a kid with a new toy. Nust have already done some tweeking since they have new Gen 4 and Alien Head 2 systems for the 14, no pics on the website though....

I like what this article says about how Kawi says that this (14R) is the new top dog - their impressions seem to back that claim up! This bike is going to shake up the sportbike market big time!

Paul C states: (you can set it on level three, ride it off into the gravel on the edge of the road, hammer the throttle and it churns its way along until traction is found again on the pavement). It definitely takes the edge off a motorcycle that's got plenty of it.

Does he sound scared? I don't know his throttle meaning when he says, "hammer the throttle." He's a mode-2 kind of guy. Either way, that is some fast calc right out of the gate. Gives it a new meaning to keep on the gas in the dirt you go off line; Exit tarmac, hello potato field!

Take care of that R, will ya mode switch? SHIT! I forgot to turn it on!

He he he he! Yup - he did sound a little intimidated by the 14...
