Dustbin sized cans add to the impression and probably the reality of bulk. Svelte is not a word that will be appearing in any reviews of this sports tub. All the aftermarket suppliers will be smiling. Big K spiced up the outgoing model with Akrapovic kit last year.
it's classed as a sports tourer and always has been, regardless of opinion or bhp. it's in the hypersports class, but just as the busa is classed as a sports tourer (and not a super sports), this bike is also classed as a sports tourer.
My first real bike ride was with a Hayabusa. It wasn't hard to ride and very easy to handle. I was 18, and ONLY had ridden a 25hp Yamaha DT125 before. No need for 600cc bikes if you know how to twist the throttle.
sorry im not from england, im from Portugal. you need to go in kawasaki website and see in your contry the shop localization. is good bike man. i tested in last weekend widout limiter+PC+full yoshi GPS 330klm is like going in a train no shake
Kawasaki might as well start making cars, the engine is already as big as a car's and will make more HP than any of the other small econoboxes, who needs torque when u can have this much fun revving to 10k
More nimble at walking speeds when you need to do a tight turn and feels a bit softer. I wasn't talking about race, country roads or anything with a little bit corner speed in it :) The biggest reason it feels easier to ride for beginners is that busa has more room for steering, and your hands dont touch the gas tank so easily. I hate the feeling of thinking theres more steering room when it suddenly stops and you need more speed to stay upright :D
ZX-14R in North America, ZZR1400 everywhere else. Been that way since 2006. Also NOT a sport tourer. You need quite a bit of aftermarket gear to make one of these a passable tourer of any sort.
I've had this bike for about a month now and i'm still afraid of it. Its pretty cool though knowing that you are the fastest on the highway, and trust and believe, this is the fastest on the highway right now. Sorry Suzuki fans, but the Busa doesn't stand a chance.
Definately get this one!! Shit!....everyone has a Busa! Besides....in the looks dept,.....this one also has the busa beat! You cant go wrong with a Kawi!.......this is a thing of beauty!...might even consider trading in my 05 ZX10r on one of these!...i am getting old and desire a bit more comfort,.....but refuse to enter the Harley scene!...lol
@artx4321 Because he's British. Triumph is now a serious contender in the sport bike category and they are make models in most of the same categories as the Japanese 4. It's just silly to me that they chose a British guy.
i test drive the moto and im in love, but i notice a lack of power until 4,000rpm +-. this is bad when the bike is loaded and in city/ and uphill need to downshift all the time. any sugestion for the problem? i think the gtr dont have this problem
Well a hayabusa is really laid back and very manouverable compared to a ZX10-R, but you need to be careful with the throttle on big bikes because they rev like formula 1's. It was my big brothers bike (the busa) by the way, and on an airstrip. But yeah, a Yamaha BT1100 bulldog is much easier to manouver and more laid back than the busa, but it weighs tons :D
@looskaluis 2009 zx14 is more beautiful and has better top speed if you remove the cutter than this,but 2012 zx14 has better acceleration,for me don't sell the old zx.
I have had a cbr 900rr for a while now and am looking for another comfortable bike, i travel 100 miles a day on my 900rr so i need a comfy one i dont like the newer liter bikes because they are all small as shit its between this or the hayabusa which should i look into?? \\\\
@Gorealaracer38 maybe i have read it somewhere in google.anyway i don't care about who is faster in top speed both bikes zzr 1400 2011 and 2012 are amazing but i liked more the 2011 especialy the green-black.have a nice day.
Diese Maschine ist nur genial habe die vorgängerin gefahren Offen Mit 200ps und muss sagen sie lässt sich sehr gut beherschen und händeln von daher muss man schon etwas erfahrung haben mit solchen geschossen da die ab geht wie eine rackete.
What internationally recognized governing body classifies the ZX-14 or Hayabusa as a sport tourer? Your personal opinion should not be confused for fact. I've been riding my 08 ZX-14 for three years now and I still can't find the factory luggage mounting points, center stand, relaxed riding position, long distance seat, or adjustable windscreen. In any case, Kawasaki and Suzuki do not agree with you.
It's this weird thing that british people call a Z. My wife is Australian and she pronounces Z as Zee just like us so I know it's not an American thing. British people are just strange. Besides, we (Americans) invented the motorcycle and have much better roads (and more of them) for these types of bikes and all others really, so we tend to make a lot more sense with anything when it comes to bikes. But Zed is what they call the letter Z. Similar to the German "Tset" pronunciation of Z.
Piękność!!! Jak się w niej nie zakochać?
MIKE. It hasn't come out in Ireland or UK yet. It will be out next year. Maybe wherever you are it has.
I don't know who thinks this bike is ugly but this bike is pure class, power and beauty.
yes these are very serious machines... hell i have a zx12 and it is no joke as well! I can only imagine this one....
amazing green colour!never forgotten u
This Ninja is beautiful, I wish Kawasaki could provide more beautiful colors.
@MrTripsJ For people like you, Kawasaki makes ZX-10R and 6R. This is combination of comfort, power and aerodinamics.
It is the faster bike u can use on public roads and also most confortable for a trip than 95% of all sport bikes.

Yeah Cant wait to get my hands on this bike...when is the launch in India
I love the design. Replace that ship size chimneys with something from yoshimura ... perfect.
This is a good way to see everything become a dot in your rear view mirror... REALLY FAST.
It's not a dash, it's a cockpit! :-D
Kawasaki is a legend 💚🖤
Beautiful!
What value it in USA?
Bugger! was happy with my 2010 ZZR14 then they release this and now i want one!
Moto Spettacolare....agile nonostante la mole e un motore che vale la pena di provare .
My first real bike ride was with a Hayabusa.
It wasn't hard to ride and very easy to handle. I was 18, and ONLY had ridden a 25hp Yamaha DT125 before.
No need for 600cc bikes if you know how to twist the throttle.
I'm getting an Er6n now, I realised this wasn't the bike for me just yet.
Thanks for the advice, thought. I appreciate it.
Days this is just NICE!
Ironic that a British guy is doing the voice over work? Yes.
Kawasaki, the best.

Awesome. I have a 2009 ZX-14. I will sell it in order to buy this bike!! That's not something that is easy for me to say.

Great bike. I heard its coming out in Jan 2012 at a price of around 12,000Euro.
ZX-14R in North America, ZZR1400 everywhere else. Been that way since 2006. Also NOT a sport tourer. You need quite a bit of aftermarket gear to make one of these a passable tourer of any sort.
like the video said.. sports tour... but also the fastest sports bike
I've had this bike for about a month now and i'm still afraid of it. Its pretty cool though knowing that you are the fastest on the highway, and trust and believe, this is the fastest on the highway right now. Sorry Suzuki fans, but the Busa doesn't stand a chance.
So sick I love how they are putting HIDs and LED talilights on bikes I want one !!
Definately get this one!!
Shit!....everyone has a Busa!
Besides....in the looks dept,.....this one also has the busa beat! You cant go wrong with a Kawi!.......this is a thing of beauty!...might even consider trading in my 05 ZX10r on one of these!...i am getting old and desire a bit more comfort,.....but refuse to enter the Harley scene!...lol
It's so beautiful.
POOR LITTLE DUCATI ....I AM ITALIAN BUT I THINK JAP BIKE ARE THE BEST...I LOVE MY CBR ID LIKE THIS 1400 TOO
mcn said the price was rumored to be just under £11,000 GBP, not bad, the busa is around £10,950, if it was me i'd be wearing green right now
kawasaki did a damn good job!
Superb and powerful !!
TOP... :)
Altamente mesmo, parabens as marcas que estao a marcar terreno.
incluindo KEEWAY =)
The Best bike in world!
Oh,i love this model,i want one ,i want one so badly!!!!
Does anyone knows the song name??
O Mother, I want one......NO...I mean I need one like I need to breath. Fantastic Busa muncher. I love it.
@artx4321 Because he's British. Triumph is now a serious contender in the sport bike category and they are make models in most of the same categories as the Japanese 4. It's just silly to me that they chose a British guy.
Foltz22 plsss name sound no seartch😭😭😭😭
Ne sviraj kurcu, GPZ is a Kawasaki, no HD bike can reach that speed. Four cylinders bikes > HD wheelchairs. Živila Hrvatska!
Alx kako se zove muzika burazz ako znas napisi mi molim tee
Germanny, Switzerland, Austra, Usa and much more...
This guy has a cool accent!
Is this bike sold to beginners in canada or usa?
@Dandy1488 I am with you how much is it as you can see they left that out on purpose and I would like to see it go head to head with the BMW
Coool..........!! fentastic
so what car/bike do you get now?
sorry do you know where can buy the kawasaki zzr1400 in England
@Gorealaracer38 Cmon. You want more power on ZX-14? I dont. Just something that looks good and have better sound. Yoshimura is my choice on this bike.
qual o nome da musica???????
i test drive the moto and im in love, but i notice a lack of power until 4,000rpm +-. this is bad when the bike is loaded and in city/ and uphill need to downshift all the time. any sugestion for the problem? i think the gtr dont have this problem
Beauty motorcycle!
This bike is hot as heck.
@eddieguerrerochris
i disagree about the looks, this looks much better than its predecessors which i always found ugly.
Yes, I came to that conclusion a couple of days ago..
Thank you :3
KAWASAKI RULES.
Well a hayabusa is really laid back and very manouverable compared to a ZX10-R, but you need to be careful with the throttle on big bikes because they rev like formula 1's.
It was my big brothers bike (the busa) by the way, and on an airstrip.
But yeah, a Yamaha BT1100 bulldog is much easier to manouver and more laid back than the busa, but it weighs tons :D
Is the ninja ZZR A sports bike or a sport tour? please can anyone answer
@looskaluis 2009 zx14 is more beautiful and has better top speed if you remove the cutter than this,but 2012 zx14 has better acceleration,for me don't sell the old zx.
I have had a cbr 900rr for a while now and am looking for another comfortable bike, i travel 100 miles a day on my 900rr so i need a comfy one i dont like the newer liter bikes because they are all small as shit its between this or the hayabusa which should i look into??
\\\\
My Dream bike😇
Great bike to learn to wheelie on.
song name someone?
I think this's the collest bike in the world..!
I swear Hayabusa'll hands down..
@6291994mike this isn't the same as the one on the website, that's the last generation
A 2012? That was supposed to be addressed... but I hear of people taking the secondary butterflies out to get better low end on the pre 2012 models.
That is the TOP DOGG!!!!1400cc..
I was looking at bikes and just sitting on this thing makes me feel like I'm going 300 MPH.. scary bike.
@Foltz22 Why is it Ironic ?
I'm gonna get one when I'm 18 I'm 13 that's my dream
Jesse Godinez you should be 20 now...did you get one 2 years ago?
@Gorealaracer38 maybe i have read it somewhere in google.anyway i don't care about who is faster in top speed both bikes zzr 1400 2011 and 2012 are amazing but i liked more the 2011 especialy the green-black.have a nice day.
yes! she is my!
my dreambike!

@KawaFord27 Hey is zx-14r sold to beginners??

Good vid!
this is great and the people who diliked it are probably old men that have nothing batter to do or teenagers that cant ride it
No problem dude ;) ride on!
I disliked because there's only one true king and it's the almighty Hayabusa...
bigger rear sporoket will help give you useable power lower
what song is this?
Waqas Sajjad what name song??😕
motos kawasaki vem da tailandia, porem n vai ter mais kawasaki made in japan snif snif, por ser custo mais baixo os precos continua amargo
I just wish it's rear was sexier than the rear of the Hayabusa.

as a busa-rider i say: this is such monstrosity!
i like it
h ei sright,be carteful with powerfull stuff like that =)
How much is this bike in your country?
(BR - USD 30.000,00)
You honestly think a Busa is better handling than a zx10? I mean perhaps its slightly better than the 14 but a 10?
how much it??
Maybe in a couple of years' time.
kawak zzr1400 best for beginner bike
in pararel word
K. Headlights of zzr and zxr are way different
does anyone knows what that bike costs???
Kawasaki 💚🖤
