But can you hold on to the bike at that level of accelleration? I think your legs would be flapping in the breeze behind the bike (lol). A Buell is no competition for an R1 but I could never flat out drag race the bike because I had trouble keeping the wheel down without losing stability but then again Buell's do tend to wheelie too easily.

Someone else wanted to race me today in a silver VW Gti Vr6 i saw it pulling out of a shoping center and the guy inside pointed to my car he made it real obvious, well when it was clear he pulled out and caught up to me very fast and stayed right on my *** the whole time he was so close that i dont even think if we were stopped i would be able to walk in between. i turned at a green light and he came up next to me and stayed next to me (he was getting pretty annying because i did not feel like racing) then he cuts in front of me and i pull in to a shopping center and as i turned i see he kept going straight and put his flashers on i was just very annoyed because i did not want to race and he was getting dangeroulsly close to me. All i can say is that some people are really stuipid. :o

Ever considered a C32 or a Barbus 6.1 motor swap???
The stock motor cannot compete with the SS in any way, shape or form. The above mentioned can.

i would never waste my money to do that to the coupe i would just get a C32 and not worry about problems.

Even though it would be lots of fun to have a 6.1 litere brabus engine in this car its just not worth it to me.
