i have never ridden a first gen busa, but personally i think the brakes are terrable on the new busa, but it's just the pads that suck. and im use to riding a supermoto so thats probly why i feel the way i do.
Yee haw... I live somewhere that they don't require bike insurance. Which is fine with me, considering should I need to use it, i will need to survive the crash before submitting. I am pretty sure, I am not going to have to worry about that..
Im one of the old guys at 48, and pay £320 for my zx12r . But you want to come to the uk where insurance companys will happily releive you of serious money to insure one of these bikes . GOING ON TO SOMEONE ELSES COMENTS . Yeh both bikes are ugly , but aerodynamics arnt realy cosmeticaly pleasing , they just help you go faster lol
i'm a kawasaki guy ,but it took 10 years for a manufacture to make something to beat the busa ,plus suzuki owns a big chunk of kawasaki motors, this means they make money if you buy a busa or a ninja , somebody on japan is going ( chin,chin) thank you come again.
really man i have a 02 busa too controlled? i think not 120mph in first gear is not controlled i hit the limiter on mine at 186 in fifth gear at 9k these bike can easily go over 200 and they get there quick there is nothing controlled about that haha
I could not believe the only difference between the two engines is 12cc. Yeah ZX14 has 12 more ccs than the Busa. Anywho, I have the 2002 ZX12R..... Waiting for Kawi to pull their head out their ass and make a ZX14R.... ZX14 frame is too ZX11ish, and the seat is ugly too. I need to look good too.
12 things ur doing: 1. Your reading my comment 2. Now your saying/thinking thats a stupid fact. 4. You didnt notice that i skipped 3. 5. Your checking it now. 6. Your smiling. 7. Your still reading my comment. 8. You know all you have read is true. 10. You didnt notice that i skipped 9. 11. Your checking it now. 12. You didnt notice there are only 10 facts Copy and paste to 1 video, tomorrow will be your best day ever! no matter what
how much power does the hayabusa have? how about the zx14? their websites hide these numbers. a fair comparison should be the POWER-to-WEIGHT ratios of the two bikes as this would be devoid of pilot error or skill. like in the italian brands that publish their engine powers and weights so it would be easy for the buyer to make calculations for comparison of power-to-weight ratios.
well this is not enough to understand which bike is faster ... u have to check dyno runs too, cause the fastest bike is the bike with the best shared torgue in all rpms .
LIke R1 .. what a bike , what a POWER , what a TORGUE , but .... after 11.000 rpm
P.s. ofc the power-weight ratio is important , but not enough
you're right about the dyno runs too, the comparison should then also have WET WEIGHT-to-RWhp ratios too as it's better than the POWER-to_WEIGHT ratios i mentioned before. about the R1, it's an inline-4 despite the cross-plane crank, i thought it would turn it into an L-twin with early power and torque. best sounding jap bike though.
I owned a 2008 hayabusa and traded that thing in for my 08 zx-14, the 14 is leaps and bounds a better bike. i used to like busa's until i rode a 14 there's no comparison
That's because the busa is the real bike here! LOL, jk, partly...although I am definitely inclinded to strongly prefer the Suzuki, for several reasons.
lmao if this guy new a thing or two 1st.did not tell which was fastest lol....and the busa is more of a show bike and cursor and zzr1400 is a raceing bike/stunt fro my point of view lol
hayabusa vs zx14... it's a virtual tie. Between these two bikes what it would come down to is rider skill + rider weight. I know everyone is all about one or the other like any other rivalry out there but the truth it that its all hype and bullshit. No bike will "smoke" the other with two equal riders on each.
you should all get an r1..... piss on these pair all day long! and yes i do know that they both have faster top speeds..... im bored of hearing it from the people who own them, but that counts for shit in the real world or the track! iv pissed on countless busas, 2 easy....
..you are right about the track,but the real world is a tottaly different story,ever seen the back end of a busa dissappear while you desperately try to give chase on with your R1...it makes you feel 5 years old..
...btw I own an CBRXX,and busas although ugly bestow awe and respect when encountered.
My fully stock 03 XX,dynoed at a "weak" 136hp at the wheel can give a new R1 a very hard race and it is slow as shit compared to the busa.
Ask around R1's are the slowest of the liter bunch,they are the only contemporary bikes that I like playing with cause depending on balls I can eat them up easiest.
well here it is i own a 07 zx-14 (my first bike ever) my brother has a 08 busa. My bike has 1845 miles his 700 miles. on a roll I get he up to 155 the he is right beside me at 186mph. I dont think his bike is all the way broke in yet. I let u know when he gets about 500 more miles on it. there both fast as hell!!! both are stock for now
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
man ppl who don noe abt da real capacity of da busa jus shut up k.............da busa after all des yrs can easily whipcream a zz14r or even a zx12r......if u hv a doubt abt it well den gett ur fat ass to race sumbody gud enough....
I can't imagine how long you sat in front of your keyboard trying to "mizpel" all this shit, only to sound like a complete moron to 90% of the planet. Your promotion of the 'busa only confirms your lack of brains.
14883115, you talk like a twat, in fact you are a twat. the 2008 k8 busa would wipe the floor with a zx12 you pillock... have you ridden the new busa ?? no.. are you likely to? no. why ? because you can`t afford one and the power scares you, loser...
Please man..Suzuki failed. The Busa couldn't beat the Zx12 and ten years later this is it ...Just a bunch of corp. bullshit all they did was a simple turn of their old rusty screw driver. O by the way my 2000 Zx12 does the 1/4 in 10.02 with my fat ass on it and all I have done is a pipe and power commander and fuel nanny. So how much better are any of these new bikes ? Do you think it matters it's all about being able to pull the trigger. Peace

The '08 ZX 10 is just as fast as the '08 Busa only because of the "mutual manufact. agreement" to computer limit the bikes! But the Busa is quicker!!! It get's to the 186 mph faster than the rest!!
elvulch, you seem to be the only one who knows what he's talking about, yes the ZX-10R is as fast as the Busa with about less than a hundred lbs. difference.
If I was on the market for a torpedo bike I'd get the '08 ZX-14.
BUSA IS THE KING BABY THE BEAST OF ALL SUPERBIKES!!! kawasaki is one fkin faggot ass bike!!! busa is better anyday suzuki sold busa's than any kawasaki model!!!i mean kawashitski

Offfical dyno results BY MCN: 08 BUSA restricted on the dyno they got 183.01bhp at the rear wheel not the crank! with 108.14ftlp of torque!! The new ZZR14 restricted "only" managed 167.55bhp with 104.36ftlb of torque 15.46bhp and 3.78ftlb of torque down on the new busa!
and really are similar sports touring products with an identical brief...to be stable and comfortable at very high speed, have lots of torque and handle with prescision and confidence
so does the new Busa go into unchartered performance terriotory?
as the new comer how does the Kawasaki compare? to the bike that invented the Genre
Aren't the manufacturers still restricting the top speed to 186mph? De-restrict the bikes, put the same rider on each bike in similar conditions and then compare.
