I love this bike, I do 82 miles/day on CA interstates, no other production bike today I would rather have! Gives you the comfort + power to handle navigating crazy traffic over long distances. Previous bike was Ninja 1000 which is classified as a sport tourer, the ZX14 is more more of a sport tourer than the 1000, was really pissed off that I waited so long to get the ZX14, after getting it I was like wtf is up with all these people saying the bike is too big, too heavy
Actually Kawasaki makes a ZX-14 that a lot of people dont know about, because it has removable bags and they pulled the handlebars back. It’s called the Concours 14 or the GTR. Check it out if you don’t know about it. That’s what replaced my ZX-14. It was quite an upgrade.
People are wierd. Also, no leg days. Leg days help XD Managing a motorcycle is a pretty physical thing. And fitness level, strength, size and height make a huge difference in how a bike feels from person to person.
@@vincentdavidson755 i'm 5'7 and my zx14r feels just fine really. Seat height is a bit higher than the Busa (even if spec sheets state otherwise). The zx14 does feel great in most situations, but take it to a twisty road and you'll feel its weight on tight radius turns. It will make you break sooner than a regular liter bike as it takes more effort to turn. Progressively accelerating (real smooth and light acceleration) while turning helps a lot. Outside these conditions, the bike is incredible really. It actually feels wierd how smooth it runs and turns in general.
I'm 5"8 and I wonder if the 14 is the bike for me I had a zx11 and I used to cruse at 110 to 160 alot on the freeway it was real good at hi speed now that I'm older I still miss the power it's like brain food I have a 1200 Harley s it's been a good bike but nothing like a kawe on the freeway
Ya and a busa is a dirt bike lol. Zx 14 anything !! only exists because of the mighty busa and was tuned to be slightly faster than busa to reclaim the long lost top spot , busa is the king of speed !

for 3 years i rode a 2001 katana 600 that took me 3 years to rebuild (6 years total) and it handled awesome. after buying my zx14r the extra weight of the bike forced me to take 2 weeks tuning the suspension to my weight and riding style. surprisingly it handles almost as good as the little katana. this is my second kawasaki in 32 years of riding. she is a keeper.
I've had many of the top end Z bikes. ZX11, ZX12R and now 2 years with the ZX14R. The bike is very well balanced, and making those tight U-Turns is surprisingly easy. Best bike I've ridden so far. Perfect ride for California's Pacific Coast Highway. Happy riding.
I had all of them and the H1 500 and H2 750 Gpz 750 Turbo, Gpz 1100 and I remember I was right there for the mighty ZX-11 did your 2nd gear go on you? Now after 2008 ZX-14 special edition got her turbocharged everything done faster than my 2015 H2. Love my ZX-14 for touring.
I had a 1993 ZX-11 back when I lived in Los Angeles and I loved riding on PCH, especially up to Neptune's Net for some great shrimp. I loved my ZX-11 and I live in Michigan now and just picked up a 2022 ZX-14R and that bike is just amazing in every way.
Never road one myself , until I bought a new 17 ZX SE last week. Did handle so much better than what people say when they write reviews on it, you can rial it thru turns same speed on the street as a 600 , just need to be more in tune with the bike and the controls, unlike a 600 you can't have a hickup mid turn . I'm coming from only riding 600cc to compare .
I spent about 6,500 miles hard riding a brand new zx9r back in 99, it was a serious machine I really enjoyed it... then i got to ride the 14r a cpl yrs ago..... wow! A perfect blend for an older sport bike guy. Comfortable, awesome wind protection..... and sooooo unbelievably powerful. I love the zx14r, But I’m afraid one would kill me.
Why do you ride it like a 600 almost red line area? these bikes have a lot a torque across the rev range which is a load of fun to use. I have a zx14 and yes you can ride at revs you like but I chose mine not to ride like my old 1 litre. No criscising just a comment.
From the UK the zzr1400 ps is an awesome bike had one for 22 months quickshifter fitted , suspension set up professionally , Akros, a flying machine it is. 15000 miles in that time with about 8 months no winter use. Lovely handling just got a bit bored so traded it in for an aprilia tuono v4 1100 factory !! Much more exciting 😜👍
H2 SX in my near future, cannot wait. That ZX14 is nice though for sure. I am too old for that bad ass 10. Thanks for NOT CALLING these green monsters ZED EX.
Dankwheelie doing track days??? That would be sooo dope! I was happy to hear that your love story with the H2 was a one time thing, shit was too dangerous for you :p.
I saw you reach for that clutch on the very first straightaway at 2:25 ish and I grinned so hard cause I thought you were gonna wheelie it already but you just upshifted lmao
How do you have access to all these motorcycles? I mean, if you have a well established youtube channel dedicated to "Moto Vlogging" and reviews, you can like go up to any Dealership and ask to test drive motorcycles?
Love it man! Would really like to see you try out a newer Yamaha FJR. I used to ride one and they are old man swag! Super easy fun big bikes, but super sporty and quick too. Yamaha Definitely hit the nail on the head with the whole "Sport Touring" Class. Stay safe, Stay fresh Dank!
Mohamed Essam different animals . Zx14 is busa killer enough said and a ninja which means telepathetic turning and highest speeds you ever dreamed of.in matters of xr type of bikes i would compare with maybe a yamaha tracer mt09 also you positioned much less extend on the xr. ninja zx14 has a kind of supersport extend position but much more comfortable than a traditional 1000
Will you ever own a motorcycle that is not converted to stunting? I remember when you had a zx10 or bmw s1000rr, which ever it may have been. Keep up the good work.
I'd like to see you test ride a Harley Davidson Ultra Classic Limited because dude one day you'll be old and whether you want to believe it or not you will be riding one! When I was young I cut my teeth on the Honda Hurricane back then I thought Harleys were big fat heavy noisy slow obnoxious motorcycles turns out I was right but I like it!
Put a little extra effort in this video and talked for a change,hope you all enjoy! Much love guys and stay safe 🤘
Hey Dankwheelie ? What is your personal comparison on the ZX14R vs H2 ?
Dankwheelie get zx6r you said it was your dream bike
Dankwheelie fuck yommi nube
Dankwheelie bro you are so talented.you had me sweating watching the H-2 video. you show way more talent than just 2 yrs stuntin
Dankwheelie OMG your the best I would appreciate it if you answered me back with a hey bro

At. 5'8 I wonder if I could handle it I had a zx11 and could cruse between 110 and 160 most of the time but the 14 seems so big and the weight?

The 14R is in a LEAGUE of its OWN!!
Especially if you have one turbocharged, love my 2008 special edition.

Only problem is that busa’s are ugly as hell, annoying to drive (in my opinion) and everyone who has one in my area is worse.

LOL that Yammie Burn tho😂
What did I miss?
@@mindspinn311 he hit a Porsche crossing double yellow lines on a blind corner
Devin Wright Oh I remember that. Didn’t catch the joke.
Just got me a 2018 zx14r and I’m loving it!!!! Talk about smooth and powerful!!!
and not hiting a Porsche lol
The Blacksunshine Project i did not like this comment because it had 69 likes and yea lol
The Blacksunshine Project haha I get it that is hilarious
Where's the back story on said Porsche 🤣🤣🤣
Why is it that the stock exhaust on any Kawasaki's look like a cardboard box with a hole cut into it
Zx 14r is king,have fun.

I am getting one, hopefully, tomorrow! Same year, same color!
Your intro is by far my favorite of any other TH-camr hahah. You also make my favorite motovloggs man keep it up.
Nice one, Dankwheelie! The ZX-14r is just beast haha
that really good intro when he is dancing is so good
Thanks for the review, the zx14 is my next bike as soon as the 2018 rolls out.

Just saw one these for sale. The saling point was...perfect starter bike😕
Thanks for giving the 14 some love........
I have a 2017 gsxr1000 and I'm selling or trading it for the zx14r this winter
DW,BRO I WAS SWEATING WATCHING THE H-2 VIDEO.
2-YRS GDAM YOU ARE THE DANKEST BRO

Can you do a test ride on a Ducati monster.
How bout an on-screen speedometer for these test rides
Why? So he can self-incriminate for breaking the law. There's a reason some guys blur out there speedo's.
RSChris666 yea man, kind of like the rappers who smoke weed in their videos and get arrested every time one is debuted. good try though
Would you like Jazz playing in the background too good sir?
( ° ͜ʖ͡°)╭∩╮
That's a cute emoji. Middle finger the size of your pecker
Song at 0:25? Shazam give me 'Ice in my veins - Dj filtered fantasy' but I cant find it on youtube or whatever.
Jays adventures same but Shazam gave me some emo song
9:00 till 20:27 All the fun on Zx14R!!
Those gloves rip from all that gas cap fiddling?

But the million dollar question is does it Wheelie??
Zack Bisson wants TukTukPirates Babies Yes
The ZX-14 is a wheelie monster... It will get up even if you can't :P
only on accident
You sound stupid.🤔
You mentioned if anyone had any request of a bike for you to ride, i request a 2020 Honda CBR 1000rr.
If you're big guy without a doubt you'll be happier on the 14 than the H2, I have both.
I ride a 2014 zx6r myself. Get one and you won't regret it man. Awesome bikes.
H2 SX in my near future, cannot wait. That ZX14 is nice though for sure. I am too old for that bad ass 10. Thanks for NOT CALLING these green monsters ZED EX.
Complete Monster!
Dankwheelie doing track days??? That would be sooo dope! I was happy to hear that your love story with the H2 was a one time thing, shit was too dangerous for you :p.
That Intro dancing killed it for me 😅😂🤣 instant sub
Power Mode- F (Full), KTRC-off, full speed ahead! That's how you ride a ZX14 lol. Good shit.
The bike look so fucking RAW I love it
I saw you reach for that clutch on the very first straightaway at 2:25 ish and I grinned so hard cause I thought you were gonna wheelie it already but you just upshifted lmao
one of my favorite intros you've ever done
hey guys, how he connect the cam on helmet, could you please give some info on this, the quality of video are awesome
met ya at RTR, had the 15 636. You're welcome to test ride if ya haven't already
The freeway portion with the turn reminded me of your old videos. I definitely think stunting is more fun than speeding in my opinion
The 14 is faster, laster longer, then the h2 because the turbo wears the moter down faster
What happened to your Sigelli why do you need that zip tie? What tank are you using?
How do you have access to all these motorcycles? I mean, if you have a well established youtube channel dedicated to "Moto Vlogging" and reviews, you can like go up to any Dealership and ask to test drive motorcycles?
