Default 2003 GSXR 750

Tried searchin around online, but didn't find what I was looking for exactly.
Anyone know what they trap at in the 1/4?
Hell an ET would be nice too, just looking for magazine times, friends rides, anything.
Curious as to my friend just bought one.
I do know the thing says it weighs in around 840...
So says the plate on the side of it.

Maybe it meant w/ four passengers[&:]
But people are now going to stick to that topic if they respond to this more than likely...
So the things I'm curious of is 1/4 mile and trap speeds.

Most of the ones at my track runs low 11's with a bad driver and mid to high 10's with a good one at 125 to 130 mph. . My buddys Busa broke 9.8 a while back with just an extended swing arm.

Yes, but it's not a hayabusa.
It's a 750...
Was watchin some guy on a 600 run 12's trapping at around 110...
Unsure as to what the hell it was, looked new though.
Color was yellow and it did have that uncomfy lookin sport bike look to it.

I wasnt referring to the Busa in the times... just the 9.8. A 750 should do mid to high 10's.

jdanial is right on it should go 10.3-5 @ about 130mph depending on the rider.

Well, unless the bike is older than 10 years, that "some guy" was a dumbass.

We can get into all sorts of arguments about the E.T., but 110 mph is dead slow for a modern 600cc sportsbike (I'm assuming it's not a standard bike).

hey chris, just thought i'd bold that for ya.

as far as the new rider w/ a 600, be careful man, i think w/ some decent practice on your launch, you can get some mid-low 11's, but w/ no practice on a bike, dont get down if your first run is in the 13's. dont laugh, i've seen it. it just takes practice.
