But seriously, I could never maintain those speeds around here without having a ticket in about four minutes. The last time I went to Missouri, I saw at least 7 or 8 sheriffs on the Nebraska highway in the 1 1/2 hours it takes to get to the state line. There were only about 2 or 3 Missouri sheriffs I saw throughout the other four hours in Missouri.

The 14 is more than just aboutpower. It's a finely balanced bike with extremely smooth acceleration, superb rideability and great handling.But it's also not made for the track, so don't compare it with bikes that are. Thesuspension is much too soft, but the bike itself can handle. You'll need to tune your suspension and in some cases (as for myself) replace your front springs.

Still, there's a reason why I kept my 636. When I want to smoke corners or drag knee at the track, I'm on the 6R. For everything else, I'm on my 14.

Its depends on what you're looking for. To say the 14 is not for everyone is an understatement.

No tight corners in ND.
460lbs I guess. It feels like it's running on tracks though.
