05 750 Gixxer runs 10.3 stock.......
Really its were you get into high speeds bikes strat to hit the wall faster than a car would. There not as slippery and have a ton of drag, it will be easyer to take down 600s but once you start getting into Liter bikes its a whole different ball game.
You want proof? We all know the TRMIN8R look at his vids of him racing bikes etc

As for a 750 or 1000, I'd like to say it'd be easier to just buy the bike and race the bike around. I don't think I've found many people on the road that have cars that'll keep with my bike....but I will admit my only loss on it came to a Hennessy (sp?) Viper. Not only beat, but beat well...BTW-my bike a 2004 GSXR-1000.
hmm must have been a late model 600 Hennessey, because I have a ZX-10 and when I play around with my wife on the freeway (her in the viper, me on the bike) I destroy her, and she can flat out drive (2:15 around thunderhill raceway, nor cal)....so In conclusion....either hes making 1000hp or so, or you need to brush up and ride harder :-) jk

I was just showing vid where a car broke the tires loose @ 60, I wasnt comparing anything.
