the ZX14 or the hayabusa.

It seems like it would be the 14, but it kinda seems like it just tacked on that extra 100 cc's just to out do the hayabusa

EDIT: also what are some of the hayabusa's rival bikes from other brands.... such as, whats yamaha's "hayabusa"

uhm, there is a video out there where the ZX-12 (I think) was keeping up with the Busa, and spanking on it, So I'm thinking the ZX-14 has it by a bit.



But I don't think they were going for Super Sport, but more, High Power Super Touring bike....

To me I doesnt seem that the 100 or so CC's would make that much of a difference in speed,  I mean after you break the speed of sound theres really not that much else that matters.

Some tests have proven that the GSX-R 1000 is faster than the Busa (GSX-R 1300), too. I guess it depends on what the test is and who is testing it.

they run the ZX12R and the Busa side by side AND they swap riders.

If these bikes arent for racing (brakes tires and whatnot) then what the hell are they for (other than popping boners at)

I don't think the Busa (and others in the same class) was really designed specifically for racing, it is more of a "sport touring" machine. But then again, why is is a GSX-R if not for racing? Ask Suzuki marketing  :icon_razz:

You know what the sad thing is, If they took the "R" out of the name, the insurance rate would drop through the floor
Maybe if they'd call it the GHSX1300

Also the guy at the end of the video, said that suzuki and kawi are dropping both lines, maybe he meant in Austrailia

What about a GSX 1400?  :dunno_white:

I would take one of them for a spin, too.
