New boy in Scotland
05/08/12 12:46 AM

Hi all

Am thinking of taking the plunge and chopping in my Tiger 1050 for a ZZR14. Will post a few Qs in the appropriate section.

I the meantime, have a drink at the virtual bar on me!

Cheers

Cheers both!

Bean, apart from the power difference do you find much difference between old the 2010 and 2012? I have read that the previous model benefitted by upgrading the fork internals and shock, especialy when taking a pillion.

Thanks

Yes Ive been off for 22 months with my shattered R/H Femur four weeks ago on my 2010 ZX14 I went threw 6 hrs of pelting rain in Tasmania I was packing shit going down steep mountains on 15 kmph to 25 kmph Hair pin bends & I couldn't operate the rear Brake with my 1" drop pegs due to my poor ROM ( Bending Knee )anyway just that ordeal made me wish for a Slipper Clutch, on the demo run on the ZX14R I could operate the rear brake Straight off,& now with my Drop pegs it's like riding before my stack ! my wife sad she felt safer on it plus it handled bumps etc. Better I like it more in Traffic and on the same Twisties I seem more confidant hitting them easier / quicker,in hindsight with the ABS K/Trac Sipper clutch better finish too, so im impressed with the extra 6K change over
