Didn't kaw finally have to come out with the 1400 to be even considered as a busa killer?


Yeah, they came out with a 1400CC, Sport Touring-looking, ugly as hell, non-handling, turd yacht of a bike.

However, it's not a top-speed race anymore. The feds (who else?) imposed speed restrictions on '01 and later motorcycles to 184 MPH. Both the Hayabusa and the ZX-12r were capable of those speeds so they both got "castrated".

I don't care who you are. If you're on 2 wheels and not acting like a d*** on the road, you're alright with me.
