World's Fastest Bikes: Kawasaki ZX-14 Ninja


Today, another post about one of the world's fastest motorcycles. The Kawasaki ZX-14 is a hyper sport motorcycle. It's currently Kawasaki's most powerful sport bike. The Kawasaki ZX-14 was released as a successor to the Kawasaki ZX-12R in 2006. The main competitor for this bike is the Suzuki Hayabusa, featured in my previous post. If you are looking for a Kawasaki ZX-14 for sale, you'll have to fork out more than R.125,000 ($16,000 or more). The bike is also known as the Kawasaki ZZR1400. The bike has a top speed of 186 mph (299 km/h), which is electronically limited. There have been reports of the Kawasaki ZX-14 reaching speeds of 210 mph (336 km/h) with the limiter removed. The motorcycle does 0 - 60 mph (100 km/h) in 2.5 seconds. Another bike that is not for the faint at heart. Also not a bike for a first time motorcyclist.
