isnt the kx14 faster?


First off i think you mean ZX-14, and yes technically it beats the "old" Busa to 1/4 mile, but were talking about a few tenths, and from what ive read Busa kills it for low end Torque, "new" Busa will at the very least match if not beat the 14, although Kawi i think tweaked the 08 14's? i think?
end of the day there both CRAZY fast bikes



Read in one of my latest mags and they got to test ride it down the strip twice.    Its the fastest bike again.

All bikes being limited to 186mph stock form, not TRE, its a quarter mile game now, the comp has finally caught up after a long 8years lol. One mag will have Busa winning by a nod, other will have 14, personally i like the looks of the Buse vs the 14, thats just my opinion.
PS and no its not because my Bro has one heehee

I have to argue with you on that one. A well tuned busa can carve canyons quite well. the 08's are even better. most of the rides we are comparing the busa to are bikes that were designed for a track and happen to be street legal. the busa was designed from the ground up never to set foot on a race track. they are very comfortable when you are talking about the relative comfort of sportbikes the weight makes them stable and tractable in corners And if you got the skill they can handle knee dragg'n lean angles as well as any other bike. the breaks will fade under a lot of heavy use. As I stated before its not a track bike.
It does exactly what it was ment to do, be a sportbike for the street I would gladely ride a busa or a zx14. Untill I have that kind of cash, my 1000F does a fine job.

two of my bros. have BUSA's annd claim to find it quick comfortable and of course fast but a chalenge with tight twisties...bulk + weighty makes more of a challenge with nimbleness....

rdsii, dont try and say the '08 busas are any different than the '07 busas because they didnt make any major changes for the '08. They're still the same heavy POS that doesnt turn like it should. I rode a 2006 busa, and I was glad to get off of it, and quite frankly, was not impressed at all, even going in a straight line. Unbalanced power that pulls you TOO fast at 8k rpm. Was not even fun. Ill stick with my 954 any day of the week over ANY busa, thanks.

...If I only had a Busa

I always thought the majority of Busa riders were between the ages of 19-27 until I logged onto one of the Busa sites, man most of those dudes are between 35-55.
IMO most of the douche bags are on 600-1000

y do they think that they have the fastest bikes on the planet?

i really don't have ne thing against busa's but just the attitude that they r the badest mothers on the face of the earth becuz the busa is "the fastest production bike" untill u hit a turn....

yet every time i see abusa  on a road course its cuz i'm lapping him or cuz it be dumped cuz they don't turn of stop worth a damm

I'm gonna go out on a limb...you got smoked by a Busa didn't you
