Default Vs Gsxr750 *vid*

This was a race between friends. *NOTE* The rider in this video does NOT own the bike. The owner was at work and let him ride it. The rider has the exact same bike but slammed, strapped and stretched. He had almost no time to get used to the bike so that is whats with the wheelies. The bike has a powercommander and full exhaust. Enjoy.



The video might be optimizing for a few minutes I just uploaded it.

Experienced rider? I never seen a "experienced" rider lean back when he goes up in a wheelie, unless hes tring to to a wheelie. He looked like a squid to me.... youbeatheriderandnotthebike

If you listen he was clutching up at the rolls to get a jump.


But your right, how could a 500rwhp car that weighs 3200lbs with the converter I have keep up with a high 10 second bike? Oh nevermind, I see you own(ed) one. Typical bike guy, a car can't beat a bike. The kid can ride, especially for it not being his bike and he didn't have more than 5 minutes to get adjusted from his to that one. Would you like another video with a different rider for the same outcome?

God the bike vs car **** is soooo annoying. Bike guys wouldnt believe it if a pro drag rider was beat with video proof. I hate even hate to see threads about it because i know where its going.

Most of us experienced (10+ years) riders know the truth. They are nowhere near "unbeatable". Bikes have a lot of advantages, but they have a serious disadvantage: Aerodynamics. Bikes are aerodynamic nightmares compared to the average sports car. The faster the start of the race the better for the car (typically). Its the same reason the 200mph mark is so hard to attain. Unles you are on a Busa (by far the most aerodynamic bike) you are looking at 230+ hp and gearing magic to hit it at the very least least typically. My favorite line about that is, "I've got a gixxer 1000, its a 200 mph bike". LMAO There are many other reasons too, considering they (most sportbikes) are designed to turn fast. Regardless, any car that can run close to a superbike is a badass car imo.

As for the rider, he wasn't that experienced. There was so much wrong with his riding and I dont want to rant. His gear (or lack of) screams either squid or rider that hasn't fallen yet. His positioning did absolutely nothing to help. First impressions, deffinately a rider that hasn't been riding long (1 to 2 years would be my guess) and has a slammed & stretched sportbike he probably only cruises around town on. Or possibly he started on a larger cc bike, which keeps them from actually learning to ride, only learning to control the bike. In his defense though, it is hard to drag race any unmodded 600,750, or 1000cc "race ready" sportbike without wheelieing, especially on the start. Nothing wrong with that (riding experience), just stating truth.

I don't understand the ones that take a superbike, ruin it (stretch and slam), then just cruise from light to light. He should buy a cruiser and be comfortable. Thats what I love about bikers, a short ride and actions speak much louder than words. He should get some gear before he loses a few pounds. Oh look, I did rant. sorry

Great runs and nice car btw

Its was an old 750, that is why the camaro did so well. A 05+ 750 with those mods would pull hard as hell on that car. (For those who don't know bikes. Not that it matters at all here!)

Also IMO the rider could have been much better. No need to bring the front tire up that far.

The problem is that seemingly no one who loses on video can ride.

I love it myself. I was out on the highway last week when two bikers came flying up, weaving through three lanes. They slowed down a bit, were gesturing to each other and running beside my car, ignoring me and talking. Once they had their issue figured out they went to hit the gas to get by me. I just hit the gas, kept right beside them for oh maybe 5-10 seconds before backing off because there was traffic up ahead.

It was great because both bikers slowed down and just stared at my car like 'What the heck is that thing...."

I probably beat up some 250s or some ricer of the bike world, I have no idea about bikes but hey it was fun.

[Cars can always win against bikes, just swerve off the line. It will cost you a new bumper, but you win every time!]
