try getting comfy on long trips :)
I didn’t buy my car for drag racing, I like a car that can handle corners on rails .
With E85 tune and lots of weight reduction I’m sure I’d be close.
And I like a drivers car with a manual so maybe we are in completely different mindsets on what makes a complete sports car

There is always someone faster.

Either in 1/8th or Quarter mile, top speed, around a track.....

Some old geezer on a $13,000 Kawasaki is going to smoke you in a straight line every time....
(that would be me BTW, the C14 easily does sub 11 second 1/4's)
It's a laugh when some cager takes on a bike. My last was a MT09, just 847cc and 115hp, but some reviewer did 2.7 to 60 and 10.3 1/4 mile on a stock one. I'm too porky to do that good, he was probably a Japanese racing sardine.

This was the fastest bike in my collection, although my 2002 ZZR1200 was a very close second.

In the Kawasaki world I always seem to buy their second fastest bike

The ZZR ( I also owned a ZRX 1200R) was one below the ZX12 which was Kawi's King of the Hill bike competing against the Hyabusa, then I upgraded to the C14 which was behind the ZX14R and again that is Kawi's offering in the speed wars.

i don't feel the need to be the fastest guy in the pack, I am happy being the second fastest guy.
