Default What do I need to beat this bike?

He says it's only a 250cc. I'm not sure I believe him. I think he has one of those tornado intakes though because I hear a sort of whistle or something. He says it's just a leak in his exhaust though I think it only runs 13's in the 1/4 mile. Anyway, I wanna be able to beat him, what do I need to do? Thanks guys.

Here's the bike

What kind of bike is it. If it is only a 250 ninja or something you could mop his *** bone stock. A 250 ninja is good for about a mid 15 second quarter mile. Most other 250s are probably not far from that.

Yeah, R1s are fast as hell stock. That thing is just rediculous.

1000+rwhp. And at a very high RPM.

Basically, you need an 8500RPM capable 2JZ-GTE Single Turbo'd Supra.

So I need to make insane amounts of horsepower at an extremely late, narrow, and and barely useable power band

It's called power to weight ratio. The bike has it. You don't

if that is the bike on the 1st page,i think it is very misleading. look at the mph when he is just keeping up with traffic,it is way off.and wheelies aren't that hard to pull on a 1000 if you are actually just trying to pull one.

The speedometer was set to KPH. He was hitting speeds of over 120mph just playing around.
For the guy that didn't notice, an R1 is a 1000cc bike and with a turbo he's likely to have 200hp.

To beat that bike you do not need equal power to weight ratio. He can only use as much HP as the bike will allow before rising up the front tire. I'd guess that bike could run 10 in the quarter without a wheelie bar.
So your F-body just needs about 600hp and good traction to give the bike a challenge.

i always carry one of these in my car in case i come across a bike.



Isn't there a movie about people racing on 10spds and one group had these canes and they would shove em in peoples spokes and make em crash. I have no idea what it's called...

I'm having a hard time believing you just said that. Both of these are my older brother's bikes. I've ran them both, a lot. That's me on it. If you don't run high 8's @ over 160 you will NOT beat the white 'busa. If you don't run high 9's @ 150 you won't beat the R1.
No, they're not stock, but they ARE street legal and driven. Street tires no wheelie bars. They will (and have) hit 200mph only limited by gears and *****, not power.





I know the OP was joking, when the turbo hits on that beast she doesn't want to stay down. The white 'busa above has a 60hp nitrous kit that only burns the tire off and slows the bike down, best runs were all motor. Turbos on these bikes are just sick.

That's what he said. I don't get it either. Sounds like he's a for the Fast & the Furious car.
