Not sure what the difference between turbocharging and supercharging. I guess I am not current on boost terminalogy. The jet ski is where I got the the idea from. That is the type of boost I think they will be adding to the 1.4 litre motorcycle engine. The jet ski uses an Eaton intercooled Roots type supercharger with a claimed continous boost. Depending on the boost pressure they get horsepower measurements of 260 or 300 out of their approximate 1.5 litre straight 4 jetski engine.
Looks like the ad has gone private and is not currently available.

Turbochargers are a type of Super charger. They are driven by the exhaust gases exiting the engine. When most people use the term Supercharger, they are referring to a mechanically driven one like a roots type or centrifugal blower.

Kawasaki introduced the Ninja ZX-14 at the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show as the replacement for the ZX-12R and the company’s new flagship and most powerful motorcycle. Rumors of an update have been circulating in recent months, with MCN reporting Kawasaki has patented a supercharger for the ZX-14.
I came across the above paragraph on Motorcycle.com website. They are also showing the action 14 news ad on there website.

Stupid ad. Probably the same idiots (or their kids) that did the original Infiniti ads.

There will never be a production bike fast enough. Fortunately there is competition so bikes get faster every year

Actually its the dealers show where the "new" 2012 products will be revealed. This happened to me in '05, and the all new 2006 ZX14 was announced in October and I had to wait till April '06 to get the 2nd one delivered to Tampa.
Lets watch on the 10-11th Oct., stevewfl may have to tap some savings once again

84 x 65mm!! I'm assuming that means they added 4mm to the stroke which means the new engine should displace 1441cc instead of the 1352 it currently has.

I wonder if it is getting the electronic treatment like the ZX10R did.

My understanding is getting a combo of the electronics from the Concours and zx10.
