By the way, spell check says centre bad, center good.
Gentlemen, this is a motorcycle forum, NOT a University course.
Funny thing though about language- I (an American) tend to view English as your (UK) language so any differences are our deviations from the original. But in reality, both versions of the language have been in continuous development right along
Its just that American English fixes British English by getting rid of all those unnecessary extra vowels and by actually using the letter "z"So on the island a zx14 is only an x14?

The English (affectionately known as 'Limeys') call the letter 'Z' zed. It really sounds odd the first several thousand times I heard it. Well actually it still sounds odd to me but there ya' have it.
So I have to assume they would verbally call that bike a Zed X 14. ??
It also makes me wonder how they use the two- word specification for letters... you know, A is alpha, B is beta and Z is zebra. What do they call it, zedbra?
Have you ever watched a Limey eat? They hold the utensils all wrong and use the wrong device to pick up the food (often the knife), and often use a fork upside down. Worse than watching a left handed person write I tells ya'.
"I eat my peas with honey, I've done it all my life.
It makes them taste kinda' funny but it holds them on the knife."

Correct.. ,Zed Ex14 ... Zed Zed R 1200 etc...That's......awkward.
Sometimes we don't speak the same language
That's......awkward.Why?
Where do they keep the animals? In a zedoo?
"Mummy, can we go to the zedoo today and see the zedebras?"
