My bike made 160 to the tire stock. The new ones with a pipe and sorted out PC are making a tad over 170 to the tire.

Sorry son, that was no gsxr1000...it took the car fo eva to hit 140. A real gsxr 1k would of been in the next area code in that time. My stockish 1k ran mid 9's in the 1/4 and would hit 175 on the highway in a blink of an eye....cars cant beat bikes!

Im going by the specs from the dealers. Like birdman posted, 192hp on the new zx-10R. I dont own one so I cant really go have one dynoed. So ya im going by what is being said by the dealer that manufactures the bike.
The bike in the video is an old *** liter bike. Even my bike (08 FZ1) only makes 140-145rwhp like it sits and I have destroyed every car I have raced on the interstate. Thats including a viper on the spray, and an bolt on pulleid 03 cobra.

Just like Yamaha upped its factory rated HP on the '09 R1.... Which is making consistantly LESS HP than the '08s. Just like Yamaha said the R6s were turning 17.5K RPMs, which was proven that they WERE NOT.
This whole thread we were talking numbers to the tire. Not factory brochure BS. Besides all that, the bike is only as good as the rider.
95% of the videos of bikes being beaten by cars has to do with the terrible people riding them. If you're in second gear doing roll ons at 60, you don't know what you're doing.
