First Impression of the Ninja 1400

[DMNTD:Me]

Guy here has just put a Full Muzy 4 into 1 on his Black ZX14 & a Power Comander they say it should be good for over 215hp ?

Yep...it was claimed that my bike would have 205HP at the crank once I had the full Muzzy system and PC3 installed...a false claim it was but not hugely off mark. 173 at the rear wheel is all GP Honda could get out of her and that was an improvement of 11hp from when the system was installed.

I had a chance to do 400 odd kms on a ZX14 while my system was installed.
Was surprised how light it felt in the corners. It did "feel" dull under power but once I checked my mirrors I quickly realised that everything had disappeared behind me. Very deceptive power,not raw at all. Would make a superb tourer without a doubt.
Personally I found its styling very dated but each to their own

Thank you for your reply.
If I were to say I was a supporter of a Marquee, the answer would have to be Kawasaki, but I do so love my bus.

At first glance I like the looks of the 14 except for the unfinished impression it leaves when tipped in. It is just not as polished or masculine as the rest of the ninja range.

I find the Busa to be a almost sit up affair unless I go in to full tuck. But then I am 10 cm taller.

Any one who calls the bus ugly just has know appreciation of the steroid pumped and bulging with a matching rage and howl when aggrivated.

These same critics probably complained that Kirsten Dunst was not symetrical enough to be in movies.
