The Kawasaki ZX14 that Team Kawasaki/Adams performance/Sportbike Zone is a first year production machine. This bike has taken the open class by storm, it garnered the best open class bike by Cycle World magazine. In a sea of race proven and developed bikes the ZX14 has turned into a class standout. The team has posted an impressive three race wins and two runner ups in six starts.
“The Kawasaki/Adams Performance/Sportbike Zone will bring several differently set-up bikes to Gainesville , including a bike that I heard through the rumor mill, will shock the class,” Gadson said. “I have to say the bike that we will be competing on in Gainesville will be a brand new combination, and more technically advanced than the bike we last ran at Atco”. I asked Coby, “are you crazy? “Why mess with something that was working so well? He just smiled and said scared?”
The team has a new way to make power and predict stronger performance numbers . Gadson said, “We have a one point lead over the Suzuki/Velocity turbo systems team. We have to go one round farther than Mike Slowe to win the championship. We want to make more history for the ZX14.” The feat that this team has accomplished thus far is amazing. The bike is a strong platform from the factory. The challenge to this team is that they have to develop almost every performance part and still concentrate on winning the races. No small task. The Kawasaki /Adams Performance/Sportbike Zone are more focused than ever. Our team is hard at work. We will have a large operation at the AMA/Prostar National Finals. We will be
prepared. We are definitely ready for a challenge.”
