The z has very little low down grunt i changed the sprockets to -1 +2 and it still wasnt great top end was better i saw 171mph on the clocks but me changing sprockets would have made the speedo tell lies the handling wasnt up too much either little things like the silver plastic covers that are there to make it look like it has an alloy frame when infact it is steel only one of the fork legs has adjustment on it as well wasnt very comfy either a naked exup with renthals is twice the bike of the z in saying that i have heard the newer model was vastly improved id prefer the xjr :nod:

ZZR1400 nice bike, but not keen on those grills down the side... Low down flat spot on the original bikes apparently. To much power for him to handle though :D

Not sure on the styling of the GSX 1400 - might just be me, but look at it head on, I kinda expect E.T. or Predator to emerge from it somewhere :retard:

It should be brutal, with real tyres (200 wide 6.5j 17's) and anything between 180 and 210bhp AT THE WHEEL if reports are to be believed :D
