Anyone read the mo article busa vs. zx14???

[HMan]

Saw that they had done a comparo. Anyone read it? What was the conclusion?

One of the writers still likes the Hayabusa, but overall in almost every catagory, the ZX-14 was the winner.
Hey, I'm a Kawasaki man, but the Busa is a darn good bike. Why do you think it's been unchanged since it's introduction? You guys (and gals) that own a Busa should be pretty proud of those bikes. If I wouldn't have a ZX-12R, I would have a Hayabusa. (Did I say that? My, my. What's happening to me?)

It's called brain damage. Now go change your plugs...

What magazine is mo

Motorcycle Online.

Its a web based "ezine".

Used to be free, now they charge for their articles.
$12 for 12 "monthly" editions.

Here is a copy of the teaser email they sent out.

The Hayabusa has mad respect, yo, and not just from the Mr. All Caps
of the world. Plenty of more mature enthusiasts enjoy the big
Soozook for its nice handling, day-long comfort and mid-range power.

Of course, having 160 hp to play with never made a bike worse. So
when Kawasaki announced an all-new road burner in the form of the
2006 ZX-14, we MOrons decided we needed to break out the MO debit
card, round up a Hayabusa and a ZX-14, and ride the pee out of both
bikes for a while to see which was better.

This is the first ZX-14 v. Hayabusa test on the WWW (certainly in
English!) and it has some surprising conclusions. So even if you're
not in the market for a 160+ HP road-missle, you might be interested
in this test anyway.
