Just watched your video. EXCELLENT! I intend to go to Loring with my 2018 ZX14r and this was a huge help. I see you are tached out at redline well before the end. I was going to change my gearing anyway for this but watching your video confirmed how important it is. I am sure if you had dropped a tooth or 2 on the rear you would have got your 200. Was glad to hear you were stock height--- saw this in the comments. Other than ECU flash , ceramic bearings and exhaust sounds like mostly stock . Loved the video!!!
200 mph, mine had full titanium single sided exhaust, PC3, tune (obviously), more gear on the front, cams, race gas, non double bubble screen, aero fill behind my helmet. They’ll do it, but being well tucked matters. I also removed anything that wasn’t needed (rear pegs etc). And mine was a high mileage bike.
I did 199.6 at Maxton and the key thing was getting my head down and looking sideways at the line on the track for that tiny extra bit of aero.. I was riding a 2006 ZX12 with a Muzzy 1427cc kit, flash and tune on pump gas. I weighed 200 lbs at the time..
When you compare the speed measured on the dyno and the speed in real conditions, the difference is that the rear tyre slips at high speeds when the bike is fighting air resistance. So there is a difference even if the clutch doesn't slip.
Well... your the first who can't hit 200 on a 14 with a good flash tune. You should've sent your ecu to Moore Mafia. I hit 206mph on my 07. That's gps speed that I have saved.
I’m 6’4” 260 and I’ve been thinking of getting this bike. My current bike is a Harley that tops out at 108. My car does 160 so I feel I need a bike that’s faster than my car. 😂
@MattsMotoWoRX did you use the stock chain guard ?? Or did you need to replace it with an aluminum one ?? What steering damper did you use ?? Planning to take my '23 14R up there this year if all goes well. Thank You for sharing your experiences there !
What pressure where your running in your tires? Why didn't you lower the bike? A more aero helmet and shoulder pads would definitely help.. Stronger clutch springs, slightly longer windscreen, lose the bar end weights. E85 or mr12 would help a bit. Tuck looked nice!
I had a 2013 ZX-14R, had the ecu flash ! Quick shifter ! Full Yosh ! BMC filter and it was tuned !…… only had the speedo and I’m in Quebec Canada so the speedo only goes to 280 km/h, but buy calculating the space between the numbers if we continue the needle was pointing around 330 / 340 km/h now since we all know speedo ain’t precise and a bit faulty im pretty sure this wasn’t exactly the speed i was going, but it was damned fast !
It the UK a couple of guys ran the ZX14R in the 200mph top speed events and the fastest stock ZX14R pulled just over 206mph using a TiForce full titanium exhaust system. The other guy pulled 204mph also using TiForce but his was the Stainless Steel version.
definitely a clutch mod from brock but other than that I think you have everything you can do to it ... maybe get a lithium battery. that would drop about 6 pounds . might help
@Thomas B Less weight will mean almost nothing when trying to go for maximum speed; accelerating is where it makes a difference. Reducing the wind resistance is where to make big improvements, when going for top speed...
My 2001 ZX12R with just a few very slight modifications did 202mph checked with GPS (325km/h) and that was not on a straight track, mind you 😬 Only did it once. Mental! But quite often reaching 160 or so, but after that tunnel vision sets in and it's way to dangerous if not on a closed circuit. ZX14R (or ZZR1400 as they are called in Europe) will most likely be my next Kawasaki after a few years on other bikes.

I wish i could help you hit the 200 mark..you are a pretty big rider..the only body position you could do is get your chest and stomach completely flat on the tank and have your butt way back on the seat and get your helmet actually above the triple clamps almost into the dash to get under the windshield also have your legs tucked in gripping the tank and frame if you have knee pucks take them off- you may need a custom seat .. i would try it again with different sprockets first.. check weather air density direction speed etc.. I live by a riders shop that does world speed records on a honda I can not say his name he owns a honda dealership he did different windshields fairings bodywork and even tires- a taller back tire may actually help you and only one gallon of fuel-- YOU CAN HIT 200 MPH !!

At minute 19:02 you can see this motorcycle makes 2.7 MPG starting acceleration, at top acceleration makes only 11.6 MPH and it is only a 1,441 cc engine. Incredible how these motorcycles spend so much gasoline!
I know this is two years old, but for anyone tuning for top speed runs. You want your target speed to be at peak power on the dyno curve. So if your peak power is at 10k but your 200mph is at 11500 you want to make your gearing taller so that your 200 happens at 10K rpm. It's pretty obvious when you type it out, but easy to overlook. For all I know this bike has a pretty flat peak and does in fact peak near redline, but that is pretty uncommon. It sounds to me like his peak power is around 10,500 but he's still doing 198 at 11,500. If that is accurate, that is a prime example of final drive ratio missmatch.
Awesome runs!! So close!! I've never been to one of these events: how easy/hard is it to spot the flags or whatever they have at the end of the course when you're in it like that?
Especially when you're that 😮😅 close to 200mph! 😢..lol I was building a rotary engine motorcycle 🏍 with a 200mph goal when I got hurt back in 2003!..smh..from Wyoming USA 🇺🇸 👋🤠
I think the engine is running up against its maximum rpm I would advise just change the front socket and give it one tooth more and change the octane level of the fuel and you will hit that 200
Sorry it is on TH-cam Bonneville Speedweek kid from California hit 218 with a stick Hayabusa an that was without the vent holes covered. They let him put tape over the vent holes for his second pass at 222 mph. History look it up.

@@MattsMotoWoRX had the 2015 zx14 until a crash. Only getting the 14 now because my wife wants to ride with me. I can always get the H2 next year when she gets her license for one and give her the 14. But I appreciate it!
Zx14r is a different bread of beast. You're gonna love it I promise. You might not even desire a H2 after owning a 1400. The torque pull is incredible. The comfort is incredible. It's great on fuel. All areas the h2 falls short. Not to mention where I'm from insurance difference it's several thousand a year cheaper to have the 14. The 1400 insures as a sport touring bike in alot of places.
i have everything you have listed except the wheel bearings and quick shifter. I would have thought you could have broke 200 maybe go 2 down in the back i would think would do it. Is it pump gas and I assume a brock map? Be interesting to know this. I really would like to do this one day.
I dropped two the back, and while i hit the limit quicker i was also too far in the red for the bike to hit 200 i think. Although i also dropped 2 in the front, so maybe the back alone would work
@@warboyrbThat’s good to know. I also ride a zx14. I have heard horror stories about rod bearing failure due to the oil pump flexing at high rpm . I’m glad to hear yours is going strong in stock form. It makes me feel at ease with mine.
@@MattsMotoWoRX So close ! Maybe that stiffer clutch will help. And shifting just inside redline. who knows. Also, looked like a pretty warm day. Looking forward to the next attempt.
From a mile to a mile and a half gained 4 mph. Not bad considering you were traveling over a football field per second so the last half mile was around 8 seconds so picking up 1 mph every 2 seconds. De -restricted ? What does that mean, ECU flash ? Send it to Moore Mafia his flash will get you there. Good runs. Good luck !!
@@khaosking2937 GPS doesn't mean shit. Go to a true measured event like this one and get back to us. If you haven't done any true power mods you definitely didn't get to 208.
@@MattsMotoWoRX sorry, I misspoke earlier, I meant go down one tooth, your bike is probably making more HP and torque at a lower rpm, so you can easily pull a rear sprocket with one less tooth. Can you put a little extra air in the tires to reduce rolling resistance? Also an early morning run will have less air resistance. There is more water vapor in the air in the morning, and the more water vapor in the air, the less dense it is. A water vapor molecule H2O has an atomic weight of 18, but a nitrogen molecule N2 has an atomic weight of 28. So more humidity means less density. When you double the speed from 100 to 200 mph, the air resistance increases by a factor of 4 times as much. So the density of the air you are moving through is VERY important. That's why doubling your speed takes 8 times as much power.
Just RPM,s left after pegging speedo and riding a legit certified 200 MPH+ Honda 954rr and comparing ,maybe 190,s but felt just as fast as pegged tuned 954rr
Man! I would love to break 200 on my 14R! Mine is bone stock, and I need to lose some weight, myself, so based on what I've seen here, I doubt I could do it under my current situation.
Well back in the 70s or 80s the bike manufacturers came to a gentleman's agreement. They decided that 187mph was the fastest any bike could go when it leaves the factory. I think the Asian manufacturers had a similar agreement on cars. So in the early 90s when people really started wanting performance there were vehicles that you could get easily get 50ish or more hp by changing a few little easy things out.
How scary is it going that fast? Obviously not being on a street and being in the open kinda removes the blunt force injury risks, and just leaves you with a slide which you seem dressed for. I took my 2014 zx14r up to 180 on a wide open country road. It doesnt have a corrected speedo so it was probably a true 165 or something but it definitely gets your thoughts going. TBH my biggest fear is mechanical failures of some sort.
It’s not that scary actually. Everything happens so fast by the time you would worry you’re already done with the run. Just check the bike over really well before you run and accept the risk 🤷🏻♂️. Being by yourself on a track makes it a lot easier to relax for sure
Back in 1999 Motorcyclist Magazine Gave all the manufacturers the challenge to step up with their hottest bike for title King Of Speed.Suzuki stepped up.First production motorcycle over 200mph. Actually Smithson Institute had the 1999 Suzuki Hayabusa as the first production motorcycle over 200mph.To bad 25 years later Hayabusa is still the King Of Speed.
Would love to have something like this up here in Calgary. To take my 2009 ZX14 up to her max. Without any worries about the police putting my butt into jail!!
Amazing run! The most informative thing I got out of the vid was you are getting as much MPG as I average from my Ram truck at 160+ MPH. So taller gearing? A sprocket would put it over 200.
A sprocket probably would NOT put it over 200 mph. People don't understand that it takes about as much horsepower to get from 199 to 200 mph as it takes to get from 150 to 199 mph.
The guy that tuned my ZX14R said to go 200mph I would have to change the gearing, mine is unrestricted
That's accurate. Stock gearing allows for 192MPH.
You could also change the sprockets
@brmw2027 That is what gearing is. Yup.
Use 190/55
Good stuff - King of bikes right there.
All hail the Busa Killer.
Enjoy that bike I'm sure you'll get it next time.

Love how the MPGs are so prominently displayed on a bike that took the Busa off its very long tenure on the pedestal
You can get a rear sprocket that drops 2 teeth

Do you have any oil pump mods? Not that it would help your speed, just thinking of protecting the engine at the prolonged high rpm’s.
It's Kwaka - it's made to run like this. This is nothing.
@@warboyrbThat’s good to know. I also ride a zx14. I have heard horror stories about rod bearing failure due to the oil pump flexing at high rpm . I’m glad to hear yours is going strong in stock form. It makes me feel at ease with mine.
Done 180 on my 2009 fireblade. Was happy enough
Haven't seen anyone here suggestions on the most effective mod to gain speed, ceramic wheel bearings. They are proven to give u a couple more MPH.
They were installed for this high speed run
Lose weight. More effective for a fatty like me.
How much difference would it make if you left the stock mirrors on?
I’m not sure 🤔. The rules for the track don’t permit mirrors so that would have to be something you’d have to test elsewhere.
About 6 mph probably.
Amazing job!
Am i right in assu7ming my zx14 an (06) will read the same mph even if I gear up a tooth or two on the front? ILL have to use my gps right?
What's with the shifting???
It was horrible! No excuses for that
@@MattsMotoWoRX So close ! Maybe that stiffer clutch will help. And shifting just inside redline. who knows. Also, looked like a pretty warm day. Looking forward to the next attempt.
From a mile to a mile and a half gained 4 mph. Not bad considering you were traveling over a football field per second so the last half mile was around 8 seconds so picking up 1 mph every 2 seconds. De -restricted ? What does that mean, ECU flash ? Send it to Moore Mafia his flash will get you there. Good runs. Good luck !!
I got mine to 208 mph. Amazing video man
na ah...
I got mine to 195, and she was still accelerating.
@Thomas B Yessir
@@khaosking2937 GPS doesn't mean shit. Go to a true measured event like this one and get back to us. If you haven't done any true power mods you definitely didn't get to 208.
I got 72mph out of mine once. @@pattyjay9999
Do you want cold you could either go a thousand miles north or 5,000 ft up it gets cold real fast going up
Gearing change required
I liked the mpg at 190.
Congrats on your runs! 🤘 Great group of folks in the LSR community.. 🇺🇸♥️🏍👍
You need to go up one tooth on the rear sprocket.
@@Mbartel500 if I go up one in the rear it will lose top end speed
@@MattsMotoWoRX sorry, I misspoke earlier, I meant go down one tooth, your bike is probably making more HP and torque at a lower rpm, so you can easily pull a rear sprocket with one less tooth. Can you put a little extra air in the tires to reduce rolling resistance? Also an early morning run will have less air resistance. There is more water vapor in the air in the morning, and the more water vapor in the air, the less dense it is. A water vapor molecule H2O has an atomic weight of 18, but a nitrogen molecule N2 has an atomic weight of 28. So more humidity means less density. When you double the speed from 100 to 200 mph, the air resistance increases by a factor of 4 times as much. So the density of the air you are moving through is VERY important. That's why doubling your speed takes 8 times as much power.
My 1998 Honda 900rrCBR would brake 200 MPH ,140 Hp and under 400lbs, came new with Kerker full pipes and chain up grade.
How were you measuring your speed?
Just RPM,s left after pegging speedo and riding a legit certified 200 MPH+ Honda 954rr and comparing ,maybe 190,s but felt just as fast as pegged tuned 954rr
@@weswr7785 Nope.
@@johnjones5977 Yeah, absoultely no chance of a 98 cbr 900 hitting 200mph, except if you put a turbo on it.
😂😂
Try the Superman Stance next time!
Man! I would love to break 200 on my 14R! Mine is bone stock, and I need to lose some weight, myself, so based on what I've seen here, I doubt I could do it under my current situation.
not many bikes have the ability to go that fast in stock form. the fun is in modifying the bike to make it happen
Well back in the 70s or 80s the bike manufacturers came to a gentleman's agreement. They decided that 187mph was the fastest any bike could go when it leaves the factory. I think the Asian manufacturers had a similar agreement on cars.
So in the early 90s when people really started wanting performance there were vehicles that you could get easily get 50ish or more hp by changing a few little easy things out.
FYI - fastest recorded speed on a “closed circuit” with turns is 226 mph.. anybody can go fast in a straight line
Was the bike at stock ride height?
Yes stock height
Killer! Your ripping it up!
How scary is it going that fast? Obviously not being on a street and being in the open kinda removes the blunt force injury risks, and just leaves you with a slide which you seem dressed for. I took my 2014 zx14r up to 180 on a wide open country road. It doesnt have a corrected speedo so it was probably a true 165 or something but it definitely gets your thoughts going. TBH my biggest fear is mechanical failures of some sort.
It’s not that scary actually. Everything happens so fast by the time you would worry you’re already done with the run. Just check the bike over really well before you run and accept the risk 🤷🏻♂️. Being by yourself on a track makes it a lot easier to relax for sure
Tire puncture would be my greatest concern, or a death wobble. In both cases, I'd rather have the long wheelbase of the zx14.
Back in 1999 Motorcyclist Magazine Gave all the manufacturers the challenge to step up with their hottest bike for title King Of Speed.Suzuki stepped up.First production motorcycle over 200mph. Actually Smithson Institute had the 1999 Suzuki Hayabusa as the first production motorcycle over 200mph.To bad 25 years later Hayabusa is still the King Of Speed.
Would love to have something like this up here in Calgary. To take my 2009 ZX14 up to her max. Without any worries about the police putting my butt into jail!!
How long does it take it to get to 60 mph ?
That is all determined by the rider
@@MattsMotoWoRX oh ok , thanks
it needs a 40 rear sprocket
I read ZX-4R and was tripping balls XDDDDDDDDDDDD
Amazing run! The most informative thing I got out of the vid was you are getting as much MPG as I average from my Ram truck at 160+ MPH. So taller gearing? A sprocket would put it over 200.
A sprocket probably would NOT put it over 200 mph. People don't understand that it takes about as much horsepower to get from 199 to 200 mph as it takes to get from 150 to 199 mph.
@@johnjones5977So You're Saying Aerodynamic Drag Is What's Stopping It?
@IDontNeedSecurityInTheClub that's the biggest factor.
Fix the clutch and go down one tooth on the rear
211 on my zx with brocks tune and pipe🙈
Nope.
