my buddy's bike walkin a 700+rwhp vette
due to the onslaught(mostly newbies) posting bike kills/races in the various forums here I wanted to re-post this vid of my friend with his 40,000mile '04 ZX-10R racing a highly modded supercharged vette putting down 700hp to the wheels.Thats about 300 more hp then your average C6 Vette.....
The bike has a full Akropovic Titanium exhaust,and has been remapped with a Power Commander.Thats it.It makes 169rwhp,stock is 155hp......It's gone 9.1x@155mph at recent private Englishtown track rentals.Bike&rider weigh 615lbs....
This is what happens when a skilled rider on a 1000cc bike races a highly modded car:

He's doing that on purpose to add insult to injury...at those speeds the front end is pretty well planted to the pavement.A lil throttle manipulation will lift it off the ground relatively easily

ok first video is incorrect. the bike in the video is a 600, not a 1000. the 1000's were not available in that color scheme.
second race is a tt viper against a 600 again, come on now.
third video is a horrible rider, and looks set up to me.
sorry, horrible posts as to what a modded car can do to a bike.

You can go on and on about modifications to each and get in a pissing match about mods but that doesn't solve anything. There are fast bikes and there are fast cars. There are cars that can beat the liter bikes and liter bikes that can beat fast cars. It kind of goes along the lines of there is always something faster argument. But, yes, I agree with you - bikes are very hard to beat when driven properly.

If that VET really has 700+ rwhp, and the driver REALLY knows how to drive, that 170 whp bike would be TOAST from anything above or equal to a 70 punch. From a low roll (0-50), it will take A LOT to beat a 1000. From a high roll (80+), my 520 rwhp Z06 gets the job done..

When your 520hp Z06 runs 9.15@155mph&130mph in the 1/8mi then,then just MAYBE you have a car that would give that bike a run for its money...you have a 10sec car at best,go away
Ask Bobby how bad he was trounced when he ran a 1000 last week w his Z06

9.1 @ 155mph is definitely moving out...it would take another 150rwhp for that vette to trap that high in a 1/4 run...then on the street it would be more difficult for him to get traction...nice runs

Look,I don't just post stuff to waste people time.I've been dragracing bikes since 1987,Ive had so many streetraces I've lost count over the last 21years.You need ALOT of hp in a car to walk a big-bore bike.Are there cars that are faster then bikes;of course.Is an 8sec all-motor car as streetable as an 8sec all-motor streetbike?No.....
That being said,there are alot more liter+bikes on the road that run 9's bonestock then there are 9sec cars(which none are bonestock).So my point is that 90% of the fast&highly modded(700+rwhp) streetcars will get walked by a stock or slightly modded GSXR-1000 or 1300cc Hayabusa witha skilled rider on board.
And,99.999% of the super-fast(900+rwhp)streetcars will get owned by a highly modded,turbo Busa weighing 400lbs&putting down 600hp to the wheels.
The standing start 1-mile world record for a streetbike is 260.28863mph,which happens to be a 475rwhp Suzuki Hayabusa.Keyword being streetbike....are there faster cars?Yeah,can you drive them everyday back&forth to work w/out melting a $50,000engine?

Because I have more friends with bikes than cars and I have yet to get beat by a stock 1000 from a 85 roll to ~160. They usualy get a 2 bike jump on me and by 160, I am ahead. But, your response was typical of someone that hasn't been in that kind of race.
and It doesn't matter if the bike ran 8.0@200 mph, from an 85 roll and higher, ET and trap speeds on a bike doesn't matter given that it is mostly aerodynamics, which the bike DOESN'T have and hence, sees my taillights @ around 160.. If you know of ANY stock 1000 in MI or want to see some video's (I'd have to make one), just say so..

Bobby might not beat a 1000 even from an 80 roll becuase he is not modded enough. I am probably making 40 more wheel HP than he is. But, what I will tell you is that he will beat any kind of 900 (929, 954 which are a little slower than liter bikes, at least from my experience) bike from a high roll (like an 85 punch). If you don't believe me, have him set up a race and come back here to let us all know what happend. I am even willing to put a little wager on it AS LONG AS the bike is bone stock...

How much do you want to wager??How will I know I'll get my money from you??:The bike has a PC2&full Akro pipe,that about as stock as you will find here in NY
None of my bikes are stock so racing him will be ridiculous,theres no point

If you know of ANY stock 1000 in MI or want to see some video's (I'd have to make one), just say so..Bike aerodynamics don't come into play until you approach speeds above 175mph,then a car(like your Z06)has a better Cd.However,power to weight ratio is still much better on the bike at those speeds&the bike wont hit a brick wall aerodynamically until 180(where it takes alot of power to go slightly faster).I will dig up a vid of my buddy running a super highly boosted turbo Supra where they do indeed race from a 75+mph roll...the bike walks it until he runs out of gearing(about 180mph)where the Supra passes him.Can you sit there&tell me your 520rwhp Vette will slay a 900HP turbo Supra from a roll???
I have much respect&love for the Z06;but 520hp will not walk that 170hp ZX-10...we dont even bother filming those types of races because it's a given the bike will win.....

you've talked about how the z06 is so driver dependant but don't seem to understand bikes are even more so. a properly ridden 600 will keep you in your place this side of 150mph, and a 1000 will kill you. i wish i was in your area to make a little cash!
