I've been riding for years and what you've described is little more than pipe dream fantasy or a rider who is afraid of his machine.
Yeah even a little 600... If you had said 5th gear Roll on from about 80-90, maybe... Possibly, but what you described bro is pure fiction, or a rider without a clue. I have a Suzuki GSX1300R, it's plenty fast and there isn't a car made that can touch one until about 150MPH for under about $500K. It's not fiction, it's not bragging, it's just the nature of the machines. Sport Bikes and especially the Open Class hyper bikes are in an entirely different realm of performance even bone stock, on the bike you just don't even know someone in a cage is trying to race you. Cars are just that much slower... It's all about power to weight until drag takes over... This one is bone stock accept for the pipes. With a good rider they can run High 9's stock, modified they get into the 8 second range with a good rider. I've taken this machine to 185+MPH Between Tampa and St. Pete many times.

I know man, I know. . . we've established that by now. We're just filming this to see what the bike rider is doing wrong and blah blah. (said sincerely). And yes, I as well as others, know that 1000cc+ bikes are untouchable, but we're talking about 600's, and yes yes I know. . . even 600's are fast.

Not really fair for cars when you have the fastest production bike ever made

And I apologize Boost for having not read the thread more carefully... It's all fair on the road though... In Tampa you've got folks in the 911 Turbos, Z06 Vettes etc, and they cannot hang until 150-160 when their huge HP numbers and superior aero package takes over. That's when the bike with 180HP is just rolling mass with 180HP vs the car with 500HP. Then of course you've got the insane folks with turbo busa's pushing 300HP Running the standing mile at 250MPH...

So I got a HD camcorder that shoots onto mini DVD's instead. That'll be easier to load and in the mean time while I wait for it to arrive, I'll try to get the software. But trust that I'll provide you with these videos folks.

the runs were done from 10-20 mph rolls. . . . haha, in 1st gear (yea, right. . . no one stands a chance) to about 120 or so. I guess that day we ran he was in second gear, either way, here is the outcome that I, as well as others, totally expected. No chance haha!
