No. The bike is so big it actually looks like shit. The zx12r is the biggest kawasaki I've seen that still looks good. The hayabusa suffers from the same problem this one does. "It's so big that the engine belongs in a car, and in a motorcycle package it just looks ugly". Idgaf if it's fast, it's canceled out by it's SHREK like composure.

All that power.... all those mods... the killer paint scheme... all canceled out by two dorky reflectors on the forks.

I would say: "sportbike", in place of "bike". But I hear you. I had an '09 for 90k miles, so I agree with you.

I had the younger brother of this bike,zx12.I had spend more than 20k for the mods.The bike still got alot of power in it.I will keep it till my last breath.

I’m not buying this whole oil pump mod thing, reason is my dad & i since 2006 have had combined 9 different ZX-14’s & not one suffered any sort of oil psi or bearing issue, combine that with a good friend that has 2 ZX-14R’s that are used for his iron butt association competitions, he has put tremendous miles on each of those bikes & due to the nature of his rides go 10+ thousand mile oil change intervals.

But I'm also willing to bet you guys are on top of maintenance. It also has actually been tested (can't remember who since it's been a while) that under Deceleration, oil pressure drops due to the flex in the oil pump plate and creating psi loss which can cause the spun bearing. I've also had a few customers come in with the notorious spun #3 rod and none of them had the oiling mods. In fact we have 2 zx14 motors currently under the knife getting rebuilds and neither have oiling mods.

Great video and awesome gains! Love the ZX14’s!

Having flashbacks my favorite was the ZX-7 back in the day.

Disappointing that you didn't give us a look at the bike put back together with the new exhaust...would like to have seen the result.

I have a 2012 Gen 2 ZX14 and love the bike. I was surprised that Kawa left those horrible cannons on the 40th anniversary model. I have seen some 40th anniversary with Akra's on the net, don't know if there is a couple of variants of this model. The Brocks exhaust, looks great, but I like things symmetrical, so I would prefer 4 into 2 like my Akra slip ons. The extra gains with the exhaust a filter are nothing to be sneezed at either. Thanks for the vid, keep up the good work. Cheers from Australia.

Thanks for the comment! Dual systems are hard to come by in the states (aside from akra and brocks there aren't many good clean options out there). But we definitely love the outcome on this one!

very good 😊

Nice. All your costumer needs now is a set of Vortex rear sets. The Healthec quick shifter works awesome with the rear sets.

What's up with the mods why do they prefer the extra mods to the clutch is their a problem with those clutches? Because I am in the market for another super bike and i had this in mind but I don't want to have to do all that just to ride. My bussa was easy to work on. and out the gate it ran without all these Mods but I want to try another style bike.

@provenpowercycles

25 күн бұрын

It all depends on what you're using bike for. You can slap an exhaust and filter in and pick up roughly 10whp just doing that (provided it's a good full exhaust system). Then tune it and you're looking damn near 200whp or more with simple mods. The clutch kit is a good one from factory but again depends on what you are using bike for. And oil mods are recommended here too. These bikes drop oil pressure and if you don't keep oil on the high side, you risk spinning a rod bearing 🤙

It's either overpowered CAR sized "motorcycles" or underpowered SCOOTER sized "motorcycles". The "in between" segment is dying. I once heard someone say "the middle class segment is dying", referring to the financial class. Same thing seems to be happening with motorcycles. Seeing a ton more under/over sized "motorcycles", but the bikes that I personally support like the zx6r and cbr600rr, "no those are too dangerous, how dare you". Look at the r6 and the daytona 675. GONE. Yet here we are with this ABOMINATION. This CAR sized engine in a motorcycle frame. Stupid. Fucking stupid. Our species is so two faced.
