Racing bikes? What sort of rwhp #'s or mph would a C5 Z06 need to run with a newer 600cc bike from a roll? I just don't have a clue as to what most bikes run now.

^ most NEW 600cc bikes are low-mid 10 seconds stock with a prorider.
hayabusa's are high 9's with a prorider, but the best i've seen at the local track is high 10's for a busa.
with bikes, its mostly the rider. i've beat a R6 with a midly modded T/A from 70-140mph. so with bikes you never know.

You should be fine with what I put down. I put down 489rwhp/474rwtq. This is racing a few bikes. The first vid is against a 04GSX-R 600 with a slip on and the next vids is me vs a 04 or 05 GSX-R 750. The other bike that is just playing with me is a modded GSX-R 1000! Enjoy.

With 450rwhp you shouldn't have a problem with the 600's as long as you do freeway pulls. So the spray will put you ahead and really leave those bike guys scratching there heads.
I had a bone stock 00' C5 6 speed with a 150 wet shot on it. Raced an 02 R6 from 60. I started in third, I walked all over his **** twice in a row from 60-160. Past 120 it got REALLY ugly. I immediately hung with him and started walking past. At the time I put down 442/550

I had ten years of sports bike ending with a Busa and that is an insane machine. Bikes are fast!
I just got this Vette and some fool on a Triumph sprint 900 trys to race with me on a we road the other day. I know you can only sqirt the bike when it staright so first corner I catch him go round the outside and I'm gone.
I had a Triumph speed triple the older verion and the newer alloy frame one with the 955 motor. The old speed triple was crap heavy and slow same engine and frame as a Triumph Sprint 900 I raced a CBR 600 with it and got pissed off I couldn't shake him, So i sold it. it sounded nice though
I had some insane bikes two R1's two Fireblades GSXR 750 and the Busa 90mph in first gear!
I took the Busa to the drag strip and taking things easy cause it had just had a new clutch fitted 11.20@130 mph there was Plenty of Busas in the tens that day and some burnt out clutches.
Yep, it takes 450 rwhp to beat a 600....
550 to 650rwhp to beat a 1000
700-800+rwhp to beat a busa...that could go for modded busa's as well. Yes, even forced induction busa's are included.
This is mostly a list for Y-bodies but, in a well thought out mustang or F-body, beating bikes is also achievable with similar, if not, the same rwhp numbers(given proper weight/gearing measures). From what we've seen on the streets of South Florida anyways. All these examples are from a highway roll, starting between 40mph and 100mph, and in excess of 180mph.
In most but, not all cases, the bike will take the initial JUMP,...but the car(s)...simply mow them down. I have seen a few Y-bodies put the bikes on the bumper right away, and keep them there. Crazy fast.

From a roll you shouldn't have a problem pulling on a 600cc in pretty stock form.
But from a dig if the rider is decent it will be hard to catch him for a while.
After 135mph 600cc bikes quit pulling....and then they only top out around 165-170.
For a 750 or 1000 a 75-100shot on top of a stock Z06 should do the trick!

I have an 03 honda VFR 800cc (w/Vtec) I have raced a few Vettes and other bikes on the high way. I will say the 600cc ranged bikes are quick but not fast. 0 to 110 range they will most likely beat a Z unless you have some power adders. Anything over that you shouldnt have a problem running them down. The car will keep pulling harder than the bike at that point. My bike with a pro rider is a 10.80s bike due to its weight (520lbs) From a Dead stop I will be tied up to 100ish with them then i pull away. But from a roll I walk about 95% of most 600cc bikes cause of power bands and gearing..

which the majority (not all) are gomers and can't ride on a real track with triples and gnarly whoop sections. 
Z O Sick, nice vids
Heres one where i tried to pick on a 2005 GSXR1000
40-130 rolls

Power output I really don't know. As I was trapping 129 earlier at the track (heads/cam/100 shot).
