Just to clarify some things for you guys.. I’m personally not a “busa” fan However, It is still the “Worlds Fastest Production Motorcycle”.. Not the Zx12, If the Zx12 was faster I think they would be marketing it as such… Anyways The Zx10 is a bad *** bike it lays down 180hp and weights about 450, where as the “busa” puts out 187 hp and weights about 500 lbs… I ride a R1 there not as fast as either bike but looks much if u ask me,

Congrats!
Very powerful car you got there!
For all bike ignorants, busa vs zx12, when you're talking about two bikes that in stock trim AND in modded trim a pro drag racer (keith dennis) could only muster up an average of 0.05 difference between the two....AT BEST....it's going to be the rider 99.95% of the time.
the 12's torque curve makes it wanna go skyward at 7500rpm in 1st when you pin it.
Busa's long stroke & smooth torque curve is easier to ride.
To ride ZX12r one has to learn to slip the clutch and keep rpm up to get good times. Busas can dump the clutch at 2500rpm and pin it outa the hole. so, it's "easier" to ride busa.

My old ZX-12 went 9.20's on motor,and into the 8's with the dry shot.Stock motor/+80hp nos.Best trap speed on this bike in the 1/4 was 168.8mph.I still have my garrett powered CBR1100XX for sale if anyone has the nutz. 
It has about 100 more hp then my 12 on the dope.

Anyway. Good kill on the 750. Bike is a serious bike. Top end isnt like that of a liter bike but they do pull hard.

ZX10R: 377lbs dry, dynos mid to low 150s
ZX12R: 463lbs dry, dynos mid to low 160s
GSXR1300: 478lbs dry, dynos mid 150s
1/4 is a riders race with the 12 and the 13, but with suspension mods the 10 will turn the same times.
curves are all 10, 12 holds it own, and the busa was made to go straight.
top speed is all busa, aerodynamics far exceed all but a few other bikes.

Mike K.If you want to see some fast streetbikes,go to velocity racing.com.They are in Florida.They have a Busa and a Blackbird that have gone low 7's in the 1/4 and a high trap speed of 200mph(not backed up),remember,these are SBS bikes with DOT tires and no wheelie bars.

JonCR96Z,check out Dragbike.com,Texas Shootout series,the 1000cc class was won by a ZX-10R,slammed stock wheelbase,geared,piped,tuned-9.0's@159mph consistantly,motor never broke open.Tuned and piped with nuetec fuel I watched one put down 181hp to the rear-corrected.The ZX-10 can rev limit 6th gear at 180-183mph depending on tire pressure,they will beat a busa or 12 from a roll on up to that speed(typically),with sportbikes,anything can happen,too many variables,you have to know how to luanch,shift,tuck out of the wind-you have to be light weight.I pulled my lowest ET's on the 12 weighing 195lbs,my 135lb friend(pro rider)went 5.83@122(8th mile) all motor on my 12,it only dynoed 178hp 96tq when he made the pass.
