Raced a bike
Would you rather wreck on 2 wheels or 4?? I have a buddy that is in a coma from a bike wreck in excess of 130 mph that would probably do anything to get those few seconds back and slow the heck down.

The only significant difference between the 600, 750, and 1000 gsxr series is the color scheme. Other than that if you they took off the sticker on the rear fairing a person who knows nothing about bikes wouldn’t be able to tell at all. I can see your confusion.
frodaddy im not trying to ruffle any feathers. i compared those b/c king02ss compared a bike to a viper and i think that they are different also... i was just looking at the fact of cost vs power. i think its incredibly stupid to travel at high speed no matter what u r on.. (2 or 4 wheels) unless u do it professionally at say maxton or salt flats or something or at a dragstrip somewhere. i have a car also by the way (3 as a matter of fact) so i am perfectly able to travel in the rain, sleet, snow, etc... i have mad respect for cars... a buddy of mine has a 408 with 350 shot in a c3 truck he is on this site #2 in the fastest truck list under parish. im not smashing cars im just looking at reality. Its kind of like these guys that go out buy a honda civic, put an intake and exhaust tip on there car and think that they can out run camaros, vettes, and mustangs. NOT TO OFFEND ANYONE WITH A FAST IMPORT OUT THERE!!! I know that there are some that are fast 2. If you gonna post about a bike atleast know what kind of bike it is and dont post or compare unless u know what u r talking about. This CAR vs BIKE thing is getting kinda old. On the bike websites i dont see anyone talking about how they beat some car because its not that big of a deal... like i said just stating what i think not trying to stir anything up. peace
I can't understand how anyone can say bikes are overrated... I have three sitting downstairs and check the weather report every chance I get in these wintery months just for an opportunity to go out a ride (today is supposed to be 60, in pa). I chaulk bike ownership the same as a really expensive sportscar that you wouldn't ever want to take out in the rain, just w/o the cost.
Beating a car in a bike is unimpressive, but I think the opposite is true for cars. Even 50hp in a 300ish pound bike is quick by car standards...not fast but quick.
Good kill. regardless if it was the 500f!
