@BOOSTEDMAGMA we are closed currently due to hurricane Helene but we'll be back open on Monday!

@CharlesR.SteinruckIII the dyno really makes it look a lot worse than what it is truthfully. I agree I have seen some failures over the years but thank God nothing has happened to me yet. We usually do an inspection before we run it on syno to ensure it is okay visually to run and we're not going to encounter any issues 👍 I appreciate you looking out for me though and I'll keep that in mind for future dynos 🙌

@CaffeineThrottle highly recommend them especially if you plan on abusing the bike or any type of hard riding 🤙

Yea... oil mod? Bro this is not something I ever hear and sounds kinda misleading

ZX14R'S have a weak thin cast aluminum oil pump cover, a few companies make billet ones that don't flex and or crack like the stock one is susceptible to. The oil pressure relief valve is sometimes replaced as well , I believe from a stock 65 PSI to about 110 PSI.

@@QuicKurtZX14R is that necessary? I've had a 1st gen and a 2nd gen and never had any issues over many years and many miles.

@drdanimalsize not 100%, a guy on a ZX14R forum was having issues with his oil pressure light being on unless above a certain RPM, I recommended looking at the cover after he had done many things trying to resolve it, sure enough his cover was cracked. He had bought it used so he didn't know how the previous owner used it. I race mine and have the billet cover but haven't installed it yet.

@drdanimalsize there are a total of 3 oiling mods for the 14r. The 1st one is the oil pump plate. The oem cast one flexes at higher rpm, dropping oil pressure. So harder riding has the ability to flex the plate more which can cause pressure drop in motor (this causes issues like spun rod bearings, cam journal scoring, worn out buckets, etc). The second would be a high oil pressure relief valve. This valve opens when it hits certain pressure number to allow oil to dump back into the oil pan. The oil pressure valve helps to reduce engine issues by increasing oil pressure from the standard of 70psi to over 110psi. This keeps the oil all inside the motor and makes sure it is covering all areas more adequately! The last is the oil pump gear. Switching this increases the amount of oil pushed throughout the motor also. The major 2 to swap are the relief valve and the cover though. Keeping your oil level high and these two items will help ensure safety to your motor if you plan on abusing it 👍👍

A company called Carpenter Racing does performance packages for these bikes. They start with head porting and a cam. You can pick up 20-35 wheel hp with just that. They also advertise a 5-7hp increase when paired with bored throttle bodies. From there they start boring out the engine and stroking it. Seems the biggest limitation is the head and cam. Probably designed like that for mostly emissions and partly drivability since the bike is so heavy, moving the torque curve down makes sense. The ZX14 (previous gen 06-11) often swap in the ZX14r (current gen 12-24) cam to get a couple more HP.

@@danielminton8084 ok cool, thanks for the info! I have heard people swapping the first gen head and cams for a second gen as well. I have a 2023 so I’m good there lol.

Kawasaki could have made the 14 a super high strung, high revving inline 4 like the liter bikes but chose not to. If you look at the liter bikes, they are redlining much higher and make all of their power up top. The 14 in stock trim really safety redlines at "only" 11k RPM or so. The 14 makes similar power but with almost 40lb ft of torque more than the liter bikes. With a different cam and head setup, you can move that power up top at the cost of low end power.

mine doesn’t bother me. it does bother the passenger though

@@peytonhibdon7659 haha probably! We will find out!

@NoFair_Z hell yeah man. Welcome to the channel! 🙌

Bro that is a great bike I got a 2014zx14 I've had it for several years now and it's been amazing and still plenty of power I've owned other bikes and after a few months they started feeling so slow but the 14 never has felt like that great luck and ride on 💯🏁

@@Thecleananunseenteam 100% agree. I owned a 2009 before this one and loved it. This bike is the SE Black/Green Accents and was a single owner who maintained it meticulously. Runs like a champ, but of course being 11 years old I want to keep it that way. Brocks, Power Commander V3 and tuned already. I am sure the boys across the bridge can get some more out of her and keep her running for another 10.

@@xXB4WXx yessir! We can help ya out with whatever you need done. 🙌

@deltamani9625 supposedly the 2025 models are finally redesigned! We may have one coming to shop soon but we shall see!

@miki7733 hell yeah man! Glad that you are enjoying the bike! 🤙💪

@Swisha90s it would ride like poop. The o2 sensors are designed from factory to aim for emission safe numbers which makes the bike drive horribly. That's the main reason why we shut them down in the first place.

That’s what I am thinking the ecu is still telling it somewhere to slow down or soft limter

@@sahillatiyal6886 it's all dependent on you ! They both move out with the right mods. If you are looking for big big power then I would recommend busa. If you want a fun/nimble street bike, then zx10r 💪

Buy busa i ride GSXR750 and would go for busa...This bikes can be used as touring too they are so understressed

@michaelrieser9928 you definitely should! It is one of the most over looked items and one of the most crucial ones to check!

@michaelrieser9928 we ended up swapping the motor out. The damage was so extensive, we would have to have rebuilt every piece almost. There was a handful of parts reusable from the motor but not enough to justify a rebuild. He had a warranty on the bike but the dealerships down here aren't the fastest on rebuilds / warranty claims. He knows that and told us he'd rather pay than wait months on end for the rebuild to take place through dealership. We had him in and out in less than 2 months with a new(ish) motor in the bike ripping down the street again! 🤙

@michaelrieser9928 and the issue was low oil while front end was lifting up. Oil starved the head/crank and it destroyed a lot of components in motor.
