Default Bike VS ME

I'm about to get a race on video with a bike to see how fast/slow my car is. The bike is a 11.00sec@130mph bike, dont know the year or brand for now. On ly know the time he ran at the track. It sound like a 750 or so. I'll be on the 150 of course. I'm at 540rwhp and 560rwtq.

What you guys think?

You have track times? N/A times, or on the bottle? Set up? All I know is you have a H/C set up. For the sake of arguement...you run mid 11's, 120 mph. 150 shot might yeild 10 mph...not sure. If you can hook on the shot, you will get him 1/4. He might out trap you though.

My quarter time are a pity cause I went with bald tires...I'm far from having a good 1/4 setup.

I think I have a chance but I must hook like you said. I've beat some cars that traps 118-121 N/A before my ported FAST. But I feel that my car lost some power since those years...maybe my valvetrain need a refresh.

I'm confident that my car should be as fast as a car/bike that traps 128-130 in the 1/4 on the jug.

I say I lose by 2-3 bike lenghts up top.

Tough to say. A 600 can run 11.00's let alone a 750. What kind of runs will you guys be making(from a dig or a roll)?

the most important thing in racing a bike is a rider because launching a bike is alot harder then launching a car so 11.0 for a novice rider on a stock 750 is a respectable time IMO.

if i was you i would go from a dig because your advantage is going to be the start. if you car is an 11.0 car and the bike is an 11.0 bike you would leave them off the line and he would track you down up top with alot of mph. from a roll when your in second he could till be if 1st since a 750 can turn 10krpm.

Basically by going from a roll your eliminating the hard part for him and your biggest advantage. so dont be surprised if he smokes you from a roll.

all that being said you havent disclosed what your running in the 1/4 so if your a high 9/ low 10 car you might not have to worry about it

if he is a half *** rider.. and is on a liter bike....

going by this... your going to get murdered, period.

if he is on a 600.. you might stand a chance..

have you ever seen a liter bike at 40mph in 1st gear? i dont know too many street legal cars that will give that a run..

1st/2nd gear from a roll is where bikes REALLY scream.. thats the worst spot to go from... a dig or higher roll is more ideal IMO..

if you are at only 550rwhp on the juice... and its anything bigger than a 600 with a half *** rider, your in trouble.

FWIW.. i have owned an F4i and now own a 954RR.. raced plenty of other cars/bikes..
i raced tons of bikes in my white trans am... only raced one with my pewter one (only had one chance).. it was a 600RR.. we went from a 40 roll.. had my dad in car with me and my cutout was closed on street tires.. he jumped out about 1-1 1/2 lengths on me and by about 100 or so i started reeling him back in REALLY slow, we let off at about 125 and his rear tire was at my bumper..

from 40 i would still be in first on my 954RR.. which would put you in a not so happy state through 1st/2nd..

i raced my buddies cobra... he traps 90mph or so in the 1/8 (from i roll i pulled away slowly from him in my white trans am that trapped 95mph in the 1/8)..
me and him raced from a 40 roll with me on my 954.. well, i guess you call it a race.. with me short shifting 1st and hit rev limiter in 2nd i pulled give or take 12-14 lengths and was still pulling HARD..
i hit 145-150, i dont know what he was up to.. but it wasnt that..
he makes 435rwhp FWIW..

+1 i totally agree i just got rid of my cbr 954 so i know what you mean about a liter bike from a 40mph roll. Personally i wouldnt race any bike from a roll if i had a choice. when i had my bike i used to get guys in mustangs throwing revs at me on the highway and i used to lose them super easy being that i could go from 65 to 120 in a couple seconds.

I rode my fathers zx14 and got on it one time and the acceleration was scary. I've never experienced anything like that before.

Point being unless your car is totally badass from a roll probably wont be good for you.

if its anything bigger than a 600 you better have a SICK highway puller.. you would need 140+ traps.

i just embarrass 600s from a 40 roll..

have not got to race a 1000RR yet..

the 07s are the faster years and not a lot of them around..

i have raced an 07? (its a brand new bike) GSXR 1000.. buddy has it..

we went from a 35 roll... i jumped out about 1 car length and held it there to 140 or so when i let out.. neither one of us were gaining or losing any ground..

i have sprocket change, full exhaust, filter, and can shift pretty good..
his mods were full exhaust..

if i end up running one though ill keep you in mind and let you know!
id say from a low roll itd be a hell of a race.. id probably jump out front and you would start coming back up on me around 120 or so.. but who knows?

Very True, it is tough to launch a bike. However, if you know what you are doing that is a different story. Many folks don't realize they need RPMs and clutch management when launching.

However a rider that knows what they are doing on a 600 and a 750 can run 10's easily. I would expect the 750 to be mid 10's at least if they can ride.

The new '09s are ******* animals. I got my **** pushed in by one with a couple bolt-ons and I consider myself a decent rider, not a pro but decent.

I roll raced a guy with a 04 R1 and i stuck with him to about 130, the mods to my bike were 2bros slip on and lowered. his biggest advantage is that I'm a fat *** tipping the scales at about 285 and he was around 215 w/ a newer bike. with a lighter rider stock to stock i think the 954 could hang down low but up top the newer 1000 would pull it.

The new cross-plane crank R1 is quite a bit stronger than the older ones from what I've read.
