It's a big (long wheel base) bike. That makes it less nimble in the twisties, but it more than makes up for it when the road straightens out. Same with the Busa. They are pretty well matched side by side.

Yep, I drool... I mean, LOOK at the ZX-14 everytime I'm at a dealer. I'm 95% sure it will be my next bike! Nothing against Zuki, I just love the ZX-14's style.

Just read a great comparison review of the Busa, ZX-14 and BMW K 1300s in the Australian Motorcycle News Mag.
BMW came out on top (so did the price +$10,000 on the others), and the Busa came in at number 2, however their opinion of the ZX-14 was that it's a great bike. Quote: "The engine is superb, in an insanely overpowered kind of way. It's like riding a two wheeled turbine".
Main critisism was that it was too chunky and stubborn in the corners (expected I think given its size).
