Better bottom end and I think much improved appearance in the new ZX14. I didn't mind the 2006 to look at, but this one is quite a good lookin' bit of kit - and what a missile. Bye bye.

Nice paint job.

They should do a naked version.

Paint looks good on it and the muffler does not appear as massive as the previous one.

Nice photo as well - just a hint of Autum hues to offset the machinery. I imagine you scattered a few fall leaves on your way out.

Nice Bike ! , pipe still looks very big to me though and ( easily sorted ), I agree the new colour scheme is spot on. I've always wanted one and would have bought one in Jan this year if Kawasaki were'nt so completely inflexible ....( and unfriendly...as usual / Norjos in ChCh ... ) .....so, I bought this and saved myself quite a few bucks in the process, ..........

Very nice.

Put the Kwacka round the Bombay/Hunuas test loopage this afternoon.

Very nice too, very smooth and unlike most sprotsbikes it doesn't look like a monkey humping a football with a big man on board.

Good brakes, box and clutch and the rest of it is all efficiency.

Like sitting on da king missile.

I don't like it... The old shape is nicer and I'd still rather a Busa.

Sorry AS, that white Bus reminds me of a Beluga Whale, the darker colours seem better...
Not that I'm totally taken by the mothership/insect eyes either...
I think the ZX12R looked much better than either of the two.

So the question beckons: If you had to shell out your hard earned BD, what would you buy; ZX14 or Hayabusa?
