I am already 60. Been riding since 62. To save you the math, that's 44 years. My last two bikes were a zx 12 and an 11. Loved the 11 best. I sold the 12 cuz I didn't like the handling. I am considering the 14 but I am not sure if it is a continuation more like the 12 or more like the 11. I want the most comfortable bad assed bike there is. Whatcha think?

I am 55 and have owned (3) ZX11's and (1) ZX12. I also sold the ZX12 and returned to the ZX11. I loved that bike! Just bought an 07 ZX14 and it will you forget the ZX11 (almost). So very very smooth and incredible brakes and the power is awesome. I would go out and buy one right away. You won't be disappointed I guarantee. E-mail me for more info.

Hello, I am 46 and I have been riding 30+ years, never owned any of the newer Kawasaki motorcycles. Currently own a 1978 KZ 1000 and I just purchased a ZX 14 about three months ago. I have a post called "Wow what a rush!" Which describes my personal feelings about this bike, and I am happy to say that they have not changed. I have just a little over 6000 miles on the bike and she just makes me feel more and more comfortable. I have been caught in the rain several times and she does not miss a beat, the handling and performance is like nothing that I have ever ridden before, modified or stock! I had a 1987 GSXR 1100, the last of the oil cooled motors, with a 6" extended swingarm, 44mm flatside race carbs, punched out to 1340cc, this thing was a 160 mph bike. Crude to ride, less than comfortable purpose built for drag racing. My Ninja would kill that thing no problem, its quite as a church mouse, handles like a race bike, rides like a cruiser with the balls of a GP racer and it still gets about 33 mpg. Bottom line "you will love it!" Hope this helps!
