my friend use to have a gsx600 till it was totaled. it had a power commander and slip on exhuast... i could slightly hold with the bike in 2nd gear but he just takes off when i hit 3rd. he was a big kid too.. i ran another friend that has a cbr 600 with intake and exhuast... he completely dusted me.

you could always go to Nasa and get a rocket and strap it to the top of the car then you might get him off the line

Bikes are simply in a different category than cars. I would never even try racing a bike even with nitrous.

ORIGINAL: hammeron

the only way to beat a motorcycle is at top speed cause
most riders don't want to die and will slow down when the
front end starts shakin around 120ish
Funny, I had mine pegged at 186mph Saturday night, and I didn't have any headshake w/my Gixxer 1000. I'm curious...can you show me your Mustang having a top speed reading anywhere near that, because mine sure doesn't.

Check my sig I got somethin for ya!!!

As for shaking a 120??? The heck is that, I havent seen it yet. Anyways, Sorry to bust some of your bubbles, but to beat even a 600cc in a drag you will need to dump a bit of coin. As for the rider, if he can launch averagely well your gonna get eaten either way. It may be close with a 600 but a 1k or 1300cc= bye bye. As said earlier bikes are in a different class, there are minimal cars on the road that can beat bikes from a roll, such as fox bodied turboes and supras. But it is not everyday that you run into one of those... "knock on wood"
