What is the top of the bike food chain? ZX-14 vs Hayabusa
Here is the first part: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=JAEBzpanGPs
Second with different ending: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=vFFpwxv0Caw
The Hayabusa and the ZX-14 are so close in performance, small changes make a big difference.
These two runs were done within minutes of each other with the exact same machinery. The only thing that changed was the rider on the Kawasaki.

ZX-14 gets my vote as well! Though the Busa is sweet. Rather have a Ducati 1098 or a Aprilla Tuono 1000 R Factory or RSV 1000R Factory!!! Or can't forget about the triumph Daytona 675! Too bad the girlfriend won't let me get a bike

They did test them against each other...MotorCyclist Feb 08. Bone stock down to the tires, ZX 9.24@150.00mph vs Busa's 9.23@151.5mph. Virtually identical, of course Ricky Gadsen could only muster a 9.65@148.4mph. Either way thats flying. Don't know if I personally would want to go that fast on 2 wheels but dammmmn how fricken awesome!!!!

Its all in the rider.I had a 07 GSXR1000 W/slip on,1 tooth down in front and beat alot of Busa's & zx14's except 1 ZX-14 which the rider used to drag race and we stayed side by side wide open.But if i had to choose between the Busa & the ZX-14 i would take the ZX-14.

both are too bulky and heavy...and ugly (imo). the jap bikes don't inspire...there's no passion! The Italians create beauty and inspire passion. MV Agusta and Ducati do it for me!
