    Shows a vette versus a p800 GTR, and the same p800 gtr against the ZX14.

    Lets see. Vette, hangs with gtr barely, and the GTR blows away the zx14. Does that mean the the vette can beat the zx14 as well? I am going to say yes. Being that this is on the street in a straight line.

    This of course is all from a roll, no diggs. And I am guessing above 180mph based on how long they stay in it. So from a digg, sure maybe the bike. but on the high end, the bike is not as good. Based on the videos

    Oh and a side note. It takes anyone to just mash the gas in a car, but it's anything less than a pro on a bike, it's the driver.


    Also, if you look at the rear tire in that racing video showing the 1/4 time on page 1. You can see that it extends past the rear tail light. also in this next link you can see how the bike looks similar but with a list of modifications. And color change.

    with a pro controlling both vehicles, i would put my money on a zx10r over a ZR1 on a road coarse.

    wow, little slow are you? i said the zx14 is NOT a road coarse bike, that's why i said the ZR1 would probably lose to a bike meant to run a road coarse... wait for it... here it comes be ready to facepalm yourself... like a zx10r.

    Superbike made by kawasaki in response to the suzuki hayabusa.the zx-14 is the successor to the zx-12r. it runs the 1/4 mile at 9.78 secs .24 secs faster than the hayabusa top speed however is limited to 186 miles due to an agreement between kawasaki and suzuki to limit speed on the bikes to 300k/h for fear of government regulation.


    Does this mean that at 186 MPH anything that can go faster than that stock will win? Probably.

    I read what you wrote. I didn't interpret that as such. Being that I don't ride bikes, I would never assume the zx10r was a course bike. But being that you you state you said

    This is what you actually said

    There is a difference. Being that I don't know road course bikes I would not know that the zx10r was.

    right, and neither will hit that in the 1/4, or in *most* road courses.

    hell a stock ZR1 wouldn't even hang with the ZX10R in the 1/4. my buddy ran a 10.6 on a '09 zx10r with a slip on muffler at 131.
