  There is no better bike in my opinion. I luv those bikes. The ride, the power in every gear is unmatched.

  The best description would be Jekyll &amp; Hyde. &nbsp;Very polite, very comfortable, catastrophically powerful, and an amazingly well built example of industrial age violence. &nbsp;It’s actually three bikes. Below 3 mph it’s a hippo … if it leans over more than 15 degrees it’s going down and you need to phone a friend to get it back off the ground. From about 5 to 70 mph it becomes a ballerina … inexplicably nimble for its weight and wheelbase. &nbsp;But when the crank and the wheels are all spinning above 70 mph, you’re just along for the ride and physics will be making the decisions from that point on. Truly amazing machine…

  I can do 500 mile days with no ibuprofen or Tylenol. For me it&apos;s as comfortable as when I had my CB919.

  Im on my 2nd zx14r now, with rpm, sitting around 7 thousand rpm, is where that insane feeling brings a massive smile, at the same time, need open roads with no vehicle of any kind around you.<br>Personally go ride my windy roads summer have long sweepers to more 35km bends, Iove sitting around 4 to 6 thousand rpm giving a string control engine braking feel to cutting bends with so much feel of control.<br> As to tuning, its ok to have off contraction control full, just ride like that, do sime power hits off the line from lights, stop and start, pushing it.<br> Like I said, sitting around 6 to 7 thousand rpm then hit it with control of course, you got to hang in hard tho.<br> Today after 4 hours of hitting it, got home and sat down, i was tired, i fell to sleep big time

  Before you get on you need to stretch and scrunch down like a squat to help your muscles prior to riding until you get used to the sport bike position.

  Get tank grips and sit further back. It will take the stress off your wrists.
