Data på raketten
Der er næppe nogen tvivl om nyheden bliver hurtig, hvis ikke den hurtigste. Effekten er den samme som på ZX10R, men momentet er langt større. 300 km/t bør blive en smal sag med alt den kraft.
At BMW S1000RR og Kawasaki ZX10R er eksakt så stærke betyder mindre. ZZR1400 har momentet, aerodynamikken og længden. Det betyder den kan skydes af uden alt ender i wheelie, samt at kræfterne kan give høj topfart.
De første amerikanske tests melder allerede om 0-200 km/t på under 6,8 sek. Over 0,5 sek. hurtigere end Suzuki Hayabusa. Så er det med at holde fast.
