Ok.. the fuel tanks on my old bikes was teardrop, that was comfy to lay over wen haulin ass down the hwy, these new supersport bikes have the hump type tank, i figured it'd b good if ya hit something it'd be a launch ramp of sort and u fly right over the top of the crash. anyone kno why the tanks now are like ya gotta tree under u that you are clinging to, I was about to buy my 3rd SSbike then i went n look'd at the big Kawi 14 and personally the quality of the Busa puts the idea of a zx1400 far from the list, Busa rules !

It is designed exactly for the rider. It allows you to lay on the tank comfortably and has fitted areas for your thighs to squeeze the tank during aggressive riding.

Yep... love the tank at interstate speeds! Especially when there's that pocket of air that's created just around you... like a suction zone.

Slap a custom chin pad on the triple clamp for such rides for the lazy punk in me and it's all good! /kindajoking
