Red aint angry Waylander - he's about as harmless as Dr David Banner.

I enjoyed my test ride on one of those immensely. Nearly bought one in black
but as you know I stuck to a new black GSX1400 which I am enjoying too.
Was sorely tempted to go the ZX1400 route, nice bike.
Must go for a squirt around the Coro loop with ya some time soon.

Hey Paul - Your review that helped to push me this way. And yes we are due for a ride soon. I loved the 12 but once I rode the 14...it was a no contest.

You're a brave man! Friends got one and I've seen it ridden in anger - rear wheel smokin sideways into turns, then spinning up on the way out. Bloody impressive. I took it for a spin and remember seeing something like 260kph...in 4th ! Effortless wheelies until the cows come home.
Take care and enjoy it. I haven't seen a red one, looks great. I think that might be a new shade of red from Kawasaki?

Thanks MD. Theres no doubt this baby will rock if I ask it to. And from time to time I will give it shit at the odd track day and drag meet. The great thing about this bike is that I dont have to be bent over with my legs tucked up under my chin to do it. I had a 12 before this and even though that was a big bike...I still felt like I was doing a yoga class while riding it. Not to mention...the kids and Mrs feel comfortable 2 up as well.

Hows Red going? Need to see you down these ways sometime soon, just a hop for your stead. Would be good to get a pic of it beside the new 10, being both all shiny and new and everything

Going great Annette. Spend more time looking at it then riding it!!
I'll be in Taupo on the 9th for the MotoTT Track Day and then shooting up to Whakatane for the weekend. Will drop in on my way back to the big smoke on Sunday if you guys are around. Will txt Chris for your address details.
