you need to be very good on a bike to go quick.

and not so good to drive a car in a straight line to be quick.

i have beaten many bikes. probably because of this. the memories of a dog box sure were fun!

a brand new out of the box gixa 1000 with a good friend of mine a writer for Rapid magazines on his first run ran a low-mid 10, I dont deny that some GTR's can beat bikes due to mine beating my brothers nija zx6 but you get a boosted busa or something of that insane nature and not many things will come close.

in that vid, the guy on the bike lifts the front on the front wheel something major off the line, and at the end of it the bike is catching the car.

my mate has a stock 97 gsx-r 600 and he ran a 11.2 at 120mph. a turbo busa will run 9's, and that is still foot shifting. if you put an air shifter on them they run quicker.

Bikes are great for a bit of fun, say Lakeside racetrack on a quiet afternoon but throw in some rain and overnight luggage and it's no contest. GTR every time

[Leewah]

Bikes. Pfffft. Sif a GTR could beat a bike (or Sam Newman in his Labo while carrying 3 passengers)

[snake]

I have seen a site where riders in Norway turbo thier Yamaha R1's (You can by the turbo in kit form). I have seen videos of these nuts lifting the front wheel to the sky at the 220km/hr mark in fifth.

baaa - that aint ownage.

whatever makes you think that little vid of a puss 'vs' a gtr on a public street 'straight' road, is ownage?

bwahahaahah!

the ONLY TWO cars that have ever 'overtaken' me was

a) a little turbo mazda mx3 on a real cold winters morning, down in the sthrn adelaide hills near Myponga - had icing problem with the carbs on my 1996 ZX7R (research it, common complaint with the zx7r's)..... but he was flying, I never knew a little car like that could go that fast - mist have had awesome suspension as the roads were very 'floaty'.............and....

b) a early 2000 model Porsche GT3 thru the twisites in summer headn towards Strathalybn, I was on the Fireblade prior to doing the suspension, and this driver was an absolute nutter, mad driver, all over the road, very dangerous - there was no way I was going to attempt to overtake him back, he almost had 2-3 headons. was top fun but, shaking my head watching him racing to stay ahead!

During the 70,000km Ive ridden thru the Adelaide Hills on my 750cc, 899cc & 919cc sportsbikes, all Ive ever seen in my rear vision mirror is:

meh anyway - bike is on consignment from saturday, Ive had my final ride.

[MMM]

LOL thats soo f**king dodgy

[atessa]

the eternal squabble - 4 wheels vs 2...

look at the power to weight - especially an R1, and the straight line equasion is fairly clear - in the dry.

dial in some corners, some water and some practicality, and then you have an argument.

been down to whoop-ar$e wednesday at kwinana and watched the bikes and the cars. yeah the bikes, standard, are faster. but they're bikes. different beast.

if all you want is straight line speed get a bike. you want to have a comfortable,all weather, stereo equipped, warm, girlfriend friendly transport, thats fast, fun and protects you from isiots who run stop signs, get a gtr.

btw, i also own a bike - and yes, i love it. its no more or less fun, its just different.

and a lot easier to squeeze thru traffic.

Hi,

Off the lights a highly powered gtr would beat a bike. Why? my bf says its to hard to launch a bike off the line unless you are really experienced. The average rider would not risk it in launching the bike off the line as it could overturn.

And a gtr dial in 7000rpm and he's gone...

Different story if its a rolling start on a highway or something. Im pretty sure a hayabusa and a 9sec gtr rolling along the highway the hayabusa would get it or r1 or zx12r and so on.

My father in laws hayabusa kills the powerr to weight ratio of a 900hp gtr if it was say 1300kgs.

Just my 2c , oh and my bf's.

He, he, gotta love these Bike Vs's Car threads!!

beat the odds "Get Both of them"

I got one of each,

Different Beasts, & i love em both

i've seen a skilled rider (deinately not me) run an 1100 Gixxer at Willowbank into the high 9's, no wheelie bars & didn't get the front wheel up at all. now that's talent! Love to see that up against a tried & prooven 9sec GTR..............that would be awesome!

but as for you 11.5sec & above GTR boys.................my Duke & just about any other liter bike on the road is gonna Smoke you in a straight line!!

Corners..................now that's a different story!!

[Tangles]

Corners..................now that's a different story!!

all comes down to the size of the BALLS

and experience counts.

I only ride thru the Adelaide Hills, as from tomorrow tho thats all over

the gtr would only be ahead for the first few meters. after that the bike will close the gap fast and over take it. i have a video somewhere with a race on a track between a porsche gt3 and a bike (not sure what but i think it is a r1). they are both professional drivers. overall i think they finish pretty close together. the porche is better through the corners, but down the straights the bike eats it.

lol @ comparing hugely modded car with stock bike

What's even funnier is hearing the excuses following a massively modded car getting owned by a bike that has nothing but a bolt-on turbo kit running 9psi and exhaust/airbox work... hahahaha
