i took my vette out for a ride today, the weather has sucked for the past week and finally we had a nice day so it was time to enjoy the back roads of ne ct. i was out just relaxing when i saw behind me several very bright halogen lights...no doubt it was a few sport bikes. they stayed behind me as i had a few cars in front...finally i ran up on a stop sign, i let the cars ahead go and waited for 10 seconds or so and i left with a grunt of the gas, they knew what i ment and with in a second or so i had a black zx 14 on my left rear bumper...i nailed the gas in second gear (not the best rpm level it was around 3000 should have been around 4500-5000 but as they say it is what it is)...i pulled him for a second and next thing he came by doing a wheelie about a foot from my left side door...he carried the wheelie for another second or so before he put the tire down....i must say i was outclassed by the zx 14..my car is quick, i have run a 10.77 @ 131.7 my first time out but this bike cleaned my clock.....i have beat 600's and a few liter bikes on the highway but the zx14 kicked my ***..kudos to the rider as i am certain he is telling the story right now on some bike board...

Nice, but those bikes trap 147+ stock, it would take a lot to beat that, you should have been spraying lol Must have been fun though

i dont have any bottle...all motor, and i knew i was going to get torched but it was not like we were top ending each other, it was only from 30-70ish.

an honorable defeat. zx14's are serious business....much like the Hayabusas.

yup no shame going down to one, if you ever get a chance ride one or a busa and see how fast they really are

His sig shows he has a turbo Busa, which is definitely silly fast!

I ran a ZX-10R last weekend. I love running bikes, but I won't even bother with a Busa or a ZX-14. If I beat one, the only reason would be because the rider couldn't handle it.

Those bikes are monsters. I like the Busa's and ZK-14's. The arent made to handle as well but I'm finding more and more......where can you push even a 600 super sport bike on a daily basis. I'd gladly give up some turning ability for the straight line performance of a liter+ bike.

I had a very similar experience the other day with a bike off a light. He was behind me and I knew I would get my *** kicked but I punched it first through third anyways. He popped up a wheelie when I punched it and stayed right on me doing the wheelie until I let off. I have no idea what it was except that it looked to have a custom exhaust and was a GSXR of some type. He then got next to me and I punched it in second from about 40mph (good spot) but once he downshifted and hit it he took off like a madman. Don't usually bother trying to run bikes but I hadn't driven the car in a while and this was the first rider I'd come across in a long time that actually knew what he was doing. Sometimes it's fun just to see them take off.

I have ridden the zx12r before and it was very fast. I couldn't imagine what the 1400 would be like. Its time for me to upgrade to a litre bike. who wants to buy a gsxr 600?
