This week on the dyno we had the pleasure of taking in this beautiful Brand New Kawasaki ZX14r! This motorcycle came in completely stock and looking for a power upgrade! Before we get started, we did a base line dyno run to see what the stock hp numbers are on the new zx14r. Once we got that, we installed a full titanium Brocks CT 4-1 exhaust system, Sprint PO8 air filter, HealTech quick shifter, Brocks Clutch mod, Oiling mods, fender eliminator and stuck it on the dyno. As always, we did another base line run with the upgrades. The new Dyno numbers looked good, but improved massively after a full ECU flash and tune. This brand new motorcycle on the dyno made some incredible numbers for a street bike!!

What a great video of all as a street bike set-up. Iv been long time rider, over 28 years, now in my 50s and cant find a machine like zx14r for my style and comfort. Yes from long rides to a sporty windy ripping roads here.
Iv just picked up zx14r 2018 special edition modal a month ago, as this is my second zx14r, shes done just over 15 thousands km, its never done a dino as to previous owner, what i understand he and his partner bought as a touring bike, theres nothing done to any upgrades, as to my first zx14r a 2013 model, sadly i ridden her off.
over few months install brock performance clutch mod kit, and p air filter block off plates and aftermarket devilx full system exhaust.
With this setup, i didn't get much gains on the dino, came at 196 hp with 112 pounds of torque, felt little disappointed but still gave me a to hairs standing on end.
I live in Sydney Australia, im looking at full setup of brock performance what they have on offer.
Because watching this wonderful video of yours, i like to put a quick shifter as well!!.
I thinking to order the same exhaust system to get gains like this too
Love to ask is this the way to go.
201hp at the wheel was a solid result. For your bike, your only 5hp away. Maybe a cheaper option is a sprint filter, if you don't already have one. It might be good for another 2-3hp, and consider using a lighter engine oil, with a compensating additive, for another 1-2hp. That should crack the 200.
Buetifull reply.
Thank you
Removing the Evap system and puting block off plates really frees up space for wiring up a quick shifter changing spark plugs
Correct. The qs system we installed is actually pretty low key and small 👍👍
Epic instructional video! Really enjoyed the technical aspects over the clutch/oil pan disassembly.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🤙🙌
This was a very insightful video! I've been the biggest advocate for going the full exhaust route, but forward I will need to balance cost vs.potential performance gains. A stock bike made 5hp less than a Brock out ZX14R, and I'm pretty sure that if you lost the massive slip ons and fitted a pair of slip ons with the stock headers and performed a dyno run, the gap between just having slip ons vs a blocked out system would be even less. The biggest performance gain is the ECU/derestricting flash. So just a guesstimate is that going with a full system vs slip ons w/ stock header would yield you 2-3 horsepowers...at least on this particular bike.
Had a 2013 ! Full yosh and flash, it did 210 HP and 126 lbs of torques
Did the 2013 have power control and anti-wheelie etc?
Been loving my zzr1200. Dont really "need" another bike but if i bought one, I'd be the zx14
Great Video!!!!
Leave it little rich upstairs wait till ram air kicks in 😂
There are xompensation tables built into ecu that account for ram air. I've done a few tests now on dyno vs street and the AFR's are pretty similar actually
great video.. now i need to go check my oil level 👍
I got the same package on the same bike and I absolutely love it! Zx14R, best kept secret. Does everything just right, a forever bike(a keeper)❤
They are monster bikes from factory for sure! Just need to tweak them a bit to pull it out 💪
Loving how the vids are coming out. Trust it will pay off. I love love how you guys detail the mods. Even bigger channels don’t do that. I for one appreciate the extra teaching other than just a Dyno Queen. Is that Motul or a Amsoil Break in Oil.
Congrats on the gains guys. Keep doing this, no other channel is Proving Power like this. 👏🏾👏🏾
I appreciate it ya bro greatly! It's a ton ton ton of work to do while doing all the other work as well but it is worth it I feel. We used motul 7100 on this bike. I like that or the semi blend that Ecstar provides for any break in stuff. But ultimately we run motul oils 👍👍
I agree, that colorway is vicious, very nice. I was dangerously close to getting a 14 before my 10R, this damn near makes me regret it. I know Sprint is the go to filter in the street scene, but I’d like to see the results of this 14 with the same mods but with a DNA filter just to see if there would be any difference. Regardless, it’s a stunning 14, with some very respectable gains. Definitely appreciate the advice with the oil fill level, definitely good to know owning its little brother. Awesome video keep it up, and can’t wait to get my bike in there.
I appreciate the good words Rick! And no worries we will be here whenever you're ready bro! 🤙
DNA quotes 164.70 CFM flow on the OEM filter and 188.20 CFM on the DNA.
Sprint isn't quoting the increased flow, but they do boast a slightly better flow than the cotton gauze style filters (What DNA runs), in general.
Bravo …!!!
Nice job ..!!!
Wake up the beast…!!!
Great content, well done and explained!! Not a Kawi guy anymore but respectable bike w gobs of power!
Again, great video!

Thank you for the good words 🙏
Great video! Keep up the good work! Yes that colour is stunning!

Badass and congrats! I appreciate the sub! 💪💪 if you have any questions or want to see anything specific, let us know 🙌
22 and the cluster is still old school they need to change it
@deltamani9625 supposedly the 2025 models are finally redesigned! We may have one coming to shop soon but we shall see!
Love these style of videos! Thank you! Watching from Perth, Australia
Wow that's awesome! Thank you so much for the compliment 🙌🤙
I would like to see and hear a video of you riding it going through the gears
@@jefftull9021 I have a video of me at the track with my personal zx14r that is turbocharged. 🤟
Man ive got a 2015 zx14r, ive taken that thing apart all the way. Just taking the skin off is a major Pain lol. It runs like a missile, love this bike. Ive always kept my oil level all the way up top. Mobil racing 4t. 10w40 full advanced synthetic.
@@trent3872 yessir 💪💪
What could I get without sacrificing stock stealth exhaust?
Not much more than stock hp. The less you change (as far as air flowing in or out of the motor), then your gains will be minimal.
Great job on tuning in that 14teen.
would of liked to see that billit oil pump cover and lil more detail on taking aoart and installing in all areas but kool good content never watched your stuff before watched all of cris moore vids he knows his shit good as well good video really like the titainum pipe
I know, I tried to video it, but between tuning and the guys wanting to get the job done, we missed that part of the filming process. I appreciate the feedback 🙏
Hello! I’m looking at you from Belarus, tell me, did you change the drive shaft gear, does it have 32 teeth? and the stock is 35 teeth
@user-dk1yk6bj5g so here in America we have issues with the traction control interference if we change gearing on the 2012+ ZX14Rs (especially the 2016+ models). I usually do not change gearing too much if the customer is riding in the street.
Excellent video young man!
I have a brand new `22 ZX14 as well. See you soon!
wish i lived closer to you. I want all of these done on my 14
@@nooblet224 we understand. Few people have shipped their bike to us at this point. It's such a perfect combo for a street beast
Love the video👌👌Are you able to tell me what you have settings on for the healtech QuickShifter? I had it going but every now and then it would find false neutrals
If you are finding false neutrals then typically, that means kill times are too short, or you are not making a clean shift (like being lazy on the shifter with your foot by not inputting enough pressure). What are your kill times currently and what rpms is It doing that at?
Great content. I am always curious about the weight of the exhaust system. Factory vs after market. Thanks
And no other or many other channels do this.
Nice video. Keep doing what your Doing, its Greatly appreciated....
Appreciate it bro! 🙏
That is all soooo dope. Amazing machine. Amazing job, dudes. I just have one question; how much for 16 additional HP and the torque gains? It's already a $20K machine, how much more to do all of those mods? Hours of labor, parts, the exhaust alone has to be in $2K range...Why is that not ever discussed in these forums? Is it illegal to speak of such things? This curious, budget minded speed freak needs to know...thanx
$5K ... I kept reading the comments. Wow. For 16 HP. But it runs better, weighs less, on 93 octane pump gas. Not bad. Less than I thought it was gonna be. I gotta go, asking the boss for a raise ;)
Yeah the parts alone total roughly $3,000. There are cheaper options out there to bring that tab down to around the $3,000 range.
There are a ton of parts you can choose from and we like to build the bikes to owners liked and wants. Every build is unique and varies in pricing 🤙
@@provenpowercycles thanx for the quick reply. I appreciate your attention to detail and it looks y'all got it going on. I get wanting to keep the stock slipper clutch in tact, but I'm wondering how you guys feel about the new springs with the OEM slipper? I don't recall you mentioning that after the dyno. Do you forsee any issues with that combo? I realize it's "just for street use", but I am pretty hard on my machines, just wondering how it might work out long term street/canyon/all day screamer rides..thanx again
@@craigwilliams3721 I wouldn't recommend leaving those factory springs for slipper in if you are hard on the bike. It won't grab the same as if you put the billet spacer in. I would recommend the full brocks kit.
Great content sir!
New subscriber.
I appreciate the support! 🙌
Do you ever tune using 89 octane fuel (rather than the 90 specified by Kaw) as Brock himself likes to do?
I believe the MR 12 race fuel is around 87 or 88 octane?
J
I have tested 89 before on ZX14Rs and on one bike we picked up 1-2 whp but on the other we lost power (I forgot how much and didn't datalog it back then). I would love to test it again though.
MR12 is actually rated 93oct in the US. We us the (R+M)/2 method of calculating octane ratings here, and it comes out to 93. MR12 has an oxygen content of 8.73% (which is what makes it so potent).
What can you say about using 100-LL aviation gasoline?
I worked for 20 years in aviation ground support and sump fuel went into all my non-cat vehicles. It makes for such a sweet smelling exhaust and spills quickly dry with no lingering oder or oily residue. It is said to contain ~4 times the TEL of the old leaded 95 premium.
I started running about 50/50 Aeroshell 15W50, after I was caught two quarts low one night and had no oil in the trunk. It contains an additive that prevents Lycoming engine valves from sticking (lead?). It immediately cured a stuck valve in my '73 Impala 350 small block that night, when no other additive could. I didn't notice any effects on my GPz1100 wet clutch.@@provenpowercycles
Probably dropped about 32 pounds of mass with the full Ti exhaust system. That stock system is like a couple of grain silos strapped to the sides. I know it's wildly expensive, but carbon fiber wheels would transform his handling if he ever got interested, besides dropping a lot more bulk.
In one of our other videos we weighed our turbo 14r drag bike and it's down to 428lbs 👌
@@provenpowercycles That's pretty astounding, considering it's approaching 600 pounds, stock.
@@exothermal.sprocket thank you. It took a lot of work to get it there!

Just bought 2022 kawasaki Zzr1400, want to install that Brock exhaust on my bike, where in South Africa can I get one, is it better to change the double exhaust to a single one?
Awesome video
Love the vid I have a 2010 zx14 (ZZR1400) and I love my bike am planning yo get mine on a local Dyno to see what figures she is pulling at her age 👍🏼🏍💨
Love your shows your results. I have one question about the processing and advertisement that’s advertised by Kawasaki, for example the 14 r I seen documentation listing that it puts out so roughly 197 hp. I’m not sure it’s from if it’s from the crank or the wheel the rear wheel and then I seen the results that you guys do on some of the ZX 14r bikes, can you help us understand what is the real deal between which you guys do and the advertisement when it comes to specs with the bikes really put out can you come up with some kind of show or demonstration to help us with that because my mind was wondering I see advertisement saying for example, the bike does 200 hp give it take 214 hp to 17 hp and then the latest version I seen up-to-date right now for the year 2025 I seen listings for 197. horsepower Can you can you do a show for us to get us out of standing on what’s real and what’s not the real end the inside of the whole story so people will understand what’s going on when it comes to businesses in the marketing stats that I see that’s totally different but I like you guys work you guys do good work. I plan on buying a new Kawasaki motorcycle. I don’t know which one I want, but can you come up with something to help us with this misunderstanding thanks you get thumbs up.👍👍👍
Amazing job great video thanks for sharing I have a 2023 kawasaki zx14r I'm going with that same brocks exhaust system and the ecu flash do you recommend doing the brocks clutch also thanks in advance
Depends on what you're using it for truthfully. If just street riding then nah, but if you plan on racing it, then I would recommend it 👌
Thank you I appreciate it
I really enjoy your videos very helpful thank you
Thank you for the compliment 🙌 we will continue to provide badass videos and keep showing what others won't 🤙
How are you doing this when the recommended break in period is a 1000 miles are you not risking damaging the engine?
@MultiDreamer1979 usually I recommend doing 500 miles then oil change to get the clutch fibers/misc shavings out of the motor but some people truly don't care and just want it modified immediately for whatever reason. The motor will be okay all in all 99% of the time. Just need to frequently change oil for first couple thousand miles and keep an eye on things 👍👍
I have that bike and will be tuning shortly to try to get to 200+ hp
@@speedbanditch1465 you got this 💪💪
Crazy thing it doesnt come with a quick shifter alr 😂😂
I know it's insane that it doesn't from factory!
Have to remember it’s made for touring it’s not intended for a track like the sports bikes
@@Aladinscavelike me touring the streets at mach Jesus
@@AladinscaveYes and no. Remember that the ZX-14R is a hybrid Touring AND Performance bike:
1. It doesn't wear the "Ninja" moniker for no reason.
2. In 2012, when the ZX-14 went from a 1399cc engine to a 1441cc engine in the new 'R' version, it wasn't because Touring guys were complaining about not having enough horsepower.
The ZX-14 was Kawasaki's Flagship bike. When they upgraded to the 14(R), it was because they wanted to maintain street superiority over the Suzuki Hyabusa.
3. Kawasaki (to this day) on their website, touts the ZX-14R as "The Quarter Mile King".
4. From the time of it's release in 2006 until the debut of the H2 in 2017, the ZX-14 was THE FASTEST production bike on the planet.
So yes, it's partially a "touring" bike, but Touring buyers aren't what's kept the ZX-14R continuing to be produced and sold, even after it was banned from being sold European and Australian markets because of strict emissions. It's because the ZX-14R is still the most impressive large displacement bike built.
And while it's still incredibly fast, bone stock, you can mod it to be insanely fast, keep up with the H2, AND still be comfortable on 4 and 5 hour rides!
@@Jeremiah_Johnson139you are mostly correct except it was a 1352, not 1399.
Are the secondary throttle buttterflies still in this bike?
@ricklist9381 yes they are 🤟
Nice. Beautiful bike
Thanks bro!
you gained 5 hp from the mods but with the flash you made more. to me that just sounds like the flash did more then the mods. I wish you tuned the map on the stock bike and seen what hp gain youd get just from that; that would indicate how much the mods are actually helping
It's was really good video 📹
@@anthonymartin8409 thank you 🙏
Can You Put a Link for the Quickshifter,, I need one for my 14 too,
Kind of weird its not been updated when the Busa was
Did you map with lambda sensor or O2-eliminator?
@@bjorncarlsson7132 neither. I disabled the o2 altogether and tuned open loop. That's how I typically tune 👍
@@provenpowercycles Do you know where cable from the lambda sensor leads / is connected to? It is hard to follow the wire.
I purchased a 2023 a few weeks ago. Still has 2mi on it. What's a job like this run approximately?

I don't need a tune or anything as I will be doing that through a pc5 but I would like to get engine lights turned out and have the rev limiter changed to a hard limiter instead of the soft..and maybe raised up a slight bit higher...
When you put the full system exhaust did the ecu have to be flashed for the engine light to go away for no o2 sensor
Yessir. We flash the ecu and turn off a lot of those sensors to get rid of check engine lights
Can i ask why you say that slipper style clutch? When there is actually a thing slipper clutch. Can be confusing to some. Just asking.

Did you have to press the shaft out of the gear on the oil pump to fit the billet plate ? If so was it hard to do ? Just thinking if someone wants to do this at home they will need to know this.
So the oil pump gear is pressed onto the shaft. When you are just swapping the oil pump plate, you do not need to press anything on or off. Only when you are swapping the oil pump gear 🤙
If you are doing the gear, it can get a little sketchy pressing the oem one off and high volume gear on. I've broken a few figuring it out 😅
Will oil mods help with perfomance
No sir. It's more for safety over anything else. These like to spin the #3 rod bearing due to oil pressure issues. The oil mods help prevent this from happening 🤙

We typically run motul 7100 10w-40 in our street bikes and sorry we get caught up in the jobs and miss filming parts of the builds !
@Proven Power Cycles I only run semi in my zx14 as have heard of a few case's of gear coggs working loose a retaining bolt' blamed on fully synthetic. I'm running my busas gen2-3 on 7100 5w40 though. But am changing gen2 to semi as missing 6th gear selection under power some times!! Was good to see you haven't forgotten the mighty zx14 it's my favourite bike even over my h2, keep the good content coming I'd rather its longer than brief to cover all procedures. 👌
P.s not sure about the clutch mod I understand that stronger springs on a slipper clutch counter acts the action ie clutch will resist slipping on de-sel so rear wheel could lock unless you do the whole conversion so aren't concerned for a slipper clutch as there's a reason the clutch is light so there's less resistance on de-sell and it locks anyway on exel the mod is to have more controlled on launching so unless your doing drag starts 51% or more no need for mod' I like the slipper clutch on mine as it assist wheelies of the line when it locks.
@richardwoodhouse8397 I appreciate the good words. And there are so many debates on oil. I just tell people as long as you run Jason MA oil and it's filled to the appropriate level, then it will be okay 👍👍 as far as the slipper clutch with springs, it was an odd request from the owner of the bike but it is working ! It did great on the dyno, showed no power loss or slippage, and owner is enjoying the bike greatly!
The concept was to still retain an oem slip while making sure clutch can hold the power still on the big end and that's what it did after testing it!
@Proven Power Cycles slipper clutches don't slip though only on de-sel they don't need stronger springs it's only if you want to control the initial bite for off the line then they lock as far as I understand it.
What brand is the oil pump mod ?
Sae out law or you can check out ape performance

I thought I wanted the ZX14..but after realizing I need to do these same mods, myself, Im going with the Hayabusa...that's a pretty badly needed mod. on the oil pump...no thanks
The sad part of this is that it is a big waste of money. I got me a Suzuki GSXS1000 and I got already 2 speeding tickets. I was not even making triple digits when I had a cop on my assh. Maybe I can ride it on a track but for street riding it is a big NO. One cannot even use half of the power of these bikes, why mess with the bike's performance anyway?
Sadly, I had to park my Suzuki GSXS1000 on my garage and continue ridding in the streets my Honda CB500F and my Kawasaki Z650. What a waste of money!
That’s why I will never stop for any cop
He said you could spin the engine bearings if you have your oil level too low. 🙄 Just like it would be for any other engine. Nothing new there folks. Unfortunately, another beautiful bike that’s going to get butchered. As a qualified mechanic with 40 years experience, I know enough to know what I don’t know. Meaning I know I’m not going to upstage the engineers who designed and built that bike.
