Well, you were probably taking it in the direction that guys who have busa's are trying to "comphensate for something" or some other equally presumptuous thing.  :icon_rolleyes:

On second thought, that would be pretty judgemental of you to automatically assume something like that. And you aren't the kind of person to pass judgement on someone for something so trivial as what kind of bike they own, right?  ;)

If it is a reference to a small wang, what does that say about guys on a GS that we have enormously large wangs

Phaedrus

Depends on who you ask. If you ask AJ, I guess it means that guys on GS's have Busa-envy  :laugh:

It is an awfully presumptuous thing for you to do to presume you know what I am thinking.

I think you think that I thought that you knew about that one time.

Hipocracy.... becoming more acceptable with the more power you think you have.

Then let us in on what you think and it will take out all of the guess work. Otherwise..



Does anyone know the HP and 1/4 for the ZX-14?

Well AJ, I read the article about the ZX14 on CycleWorld and didn't find any specific #'s.

All I found was:
QuoteKawasaki has so far made no claims, but 165-170 rear-wheel hp seems likely given the current ZX-12R's 160-hp output.
at http://www.cycleworld.com/article.asp?section_id=4&article_id=11

In referencing the ZX-12, I found more information on:

http://www.angelfire.com/linux/ldrpg/

Which states:

ZX-12R - 159.8rwhp @ 10,250rpm / 91.4ft lbs @ 7,750rpm
Hayabusa- 158.0rwhp @ 9,750rpm / 98.4ft lbs @ 7,000rpm

So apparently the ZX-12R makes more stock HP than the Busa, you can be certain the ZX-14 does. The ZX also had a higher top speed and a quicker 1/4 mile.

However, Miss AJ, I couldn't find anywhere on cycleworld where it said how much HP the ZX-14 makes? Did you see it on there? Maybe you could point me to it?  :dunno_white: It could very well be on there, but I looked and couldn't find it.

ummm kawi has made no claims....... but 165-170 seems possible

Phaedrus

Ahh, well thanks for the help. Haha.

Maybe next time before blindly pointing someone in a direction for information, be sure that the information exists there.  :thumb:
