I took my son's new to him 2013 ZX14 out for a little "test" ride today. It only has 3,600 miles on it. It is the bike my friend Jerry took to Bonneville Salt Flats in August. He was able to get a timed mile at 197 mph with a strong head wind.
HOLY CRAP "! This bike is crazy fast and it is really quick. I got it up to "ludicrous" speed and the world went blurry. I could only ride it for about a half hour until the seating position became too uncomfortable. Had to come home and get the Rocket out for an hour of nice comfy cruising.
Jerry doing 197 mph. Look at the finish line flags.
