Granted my bike aint a 600, but I weigh 340lbs.... and I anniliated a C6 Z06. Started out in a uphill corner where I easily had him covered (I'm good at cornering. Really good.) then I walked around him extremely easily at the corner exit. Wasn't even a race really.

FYI: my friends lightly modded but expertly ridden '05 636 ZX6 Kawi stays within a bike length of me from the same 50mph rolling start to around 100mph (I ran up to 150'ish I believe against the Z06 and had maybe 20 car lengths? hard to tell). Rider is key on a high revving small bore, obviously easier on a big bore.

I have to agree here. I can stay even with any 1000 I have come across from 30-125 with my 600 RR. It's all in the driver.

BTW, the ZX-14s are nasty (in a super fast way!).

Still a nice kill for the OP. I have seen other videos showing similar outcomes. Just beware the bikes with good drivers

I ran 11.0@129 in my 07 GSX-R 600 bone stock. I'm a pretty good rider. 60ft's are hard on stock wheelbase bikes. However, I'd imagine a 520rwhp vette would probably trap around 130-135 also, so I'd think it would be a very close race depending on the rider and if it was a 600. Liter bike would walk away till 180 then you could catch up and slowly pass him as he would be most likely gearing limited at around 180 or so. If he was pulling a wheelie it could have been a big liter bike or he could have been dropping the clutch every time. Really hard to tell. Honesty liter bike or 600 it could have been close. Good kill.

Any time a car beat a bike 600cc on up, that's major!
