Just watched your video. EXCELLENT! I intend to go to Loring with my 2018 ZX14r and this was a huge help. I see you are tached out at redline well before the end. I was going to change my gearing anyway for this but watching your video confirmed how important it is. I am sure if you had dropped a tooth or 2 on the rear you would have got your 200. Was glad to hear you were stock height--- saw this in the comments. Other than ECU flash , ceramic bearings and exhaust sounds like mostly stock . Loved the video!!!

Good stuff - King of bikes right there. All hail the Busa Killer. Enjoy that bike I'm sure you'll get it next time.

Ur buddy cracked me up! What a good time ya'll are having! 👍

Beautiful speed control. Smooth as glass.

Great job! Thank you for making this video.

200 mph, mine had full titanium single sided exhaust, PC3, tune (obviously), more gear on the front, cams, race gas, non double bubble screen, aero fill behind my helmet. They’ll do it, but being well tucked matters. I also removed anything that wasn’t needed (rear pegs etc). And mine was a high mileage bike.

Thats awesome!! I just picked up a 22 ZX14R and look forward to riding once its warm in Utah.

Leia: "Would it help if I got out and pushed?" Solo: "It might! "

What pressure where your running in your tires? Why didn't you lower the bike? A more aero helmet and shoulder pads would definitely help.. Stronger clutch springs, slightly longer windscreen, lose the bar end weights. E85 or mr12 would help a bit. Tuck looked nice!

Close, but no cigar. Frustrating FUN. Living on the edge! I might have to come out of retirement and teach you youngins what FAST IS. I was doing 188 MPH in 1975 , on a Honda Goldwing prototype, the one on inside back cover of CYCLE MAGAZINE DEC73. You have to shrink wrap yourself at speed. On your bike 195-205 is all in your head. Personally I think your take off is lame and keeping you from your goal. With my Goldwing I revved it to 10,500 and dumped the clutch. Yeah, you go sideways for a bit but once you straighten out, you're flying! Try a neoprene suit over the leathers to smooth your body, or put some deflectors on your leathers to re arrange- airflow. Maybe smooth wheel covers would help. How about a one piece over suit that goes over your helmet that scrunches you into a tiny ball? Good luck next time! Don't make this old man have to show you how it's done. You'll never live that down!

I'm curious what protective riding gear were you using? What would you recommend for the best protection? Thanks!

Why is it stopping at 125? Mine gets to 186 lickity split, and that was before an ECU flash and full exhaust system. And why the short shifting???

Very nice.👌

@ 150mph it's still giving you 23mpg. May be I should go faster when I ride lol

Was that a lil double clutch boost at like 190 mph 13:06? Sweet run, must’ve felt like warp speed.

Yeah, that's fast. I took my friends zx12 and was sufficiently impressed. I liked the riding position better than my 01 bus.

Good job man. Watching this vid just made me MAD! b/c I never made the "commitment" to "top speed" pull my 14. She was "ready" to prove *(meaning: unleashed, derestricted & tuned), but I had decided I didn't want to "track prep" the bike to pass tech inspection. Plus, when I had my 14, I was shamefully "heavy" (230-240lbs). I SOLD that 2009 14, "Vicky". It had never been "down". Buyer crashed it within 4mo.(totaled & parted it out 😞. He survived). But TODAY(5/3/24), watching your vid, I feel revived! Thinking now to "go for it" with my 2019 X-10RR, "Vanessa". I've started the weight loss! Bike is "ready". Let's go! -Any advice? 👂

I keep yelling at my monitor - CLUTCH SLIPPING!

My 2001 ZX12R with just a few very slight modifications did 202mph checked with GPS (325km/h) and that was not on a straight track, mind you 😬 Only did it once. Mental! But quite often reaching 160 or so, but after that tunnel vision sets in and it's way to dangerous if not on a closed circuit. ZX14R (or ZZR1400 as they are called in Europe) will most likely be my next Kawasaki after a few years on other bikes.

I think the Asian manufacturers had a similar agreement on cars. So in the early 90s when people really started wanting performance there were vehicles that you could get easily get 50ish or more hp by changing a few little easy things out.
