All,

I recently just sold my relatively stock 1992 CBR900RR, the king of the sports bikes from 91-96 until the R1 turned up. I had it for about 5 years and only just sold. I have run the bike using a G-Tech against my 97 GTR. There was no competition in a straight line.

CBR 0-100 3.4sec. GTR 0-100 4.5sec

CBR 1/4 11.2 sec. GTR 1/4 12.2sec (With my new GTRS turbo's 11.8)

Although I’m not the best bike rider in the world, I have found the car to be quicker around the Track. Eastern Creek; CBR 1.55Min, GTR 1.52Min.

In my mind nothing rips your head off like a 100+kW/190KG vehicle.

Now for the big one!

Bike just sold it for $5k

GTR $30-$50K

Bang for buck, modified not modified, bikes are still king!

But a car will keep you alive longer!

The reason why cars are quicker around the track is because they corner better. If bikes weren't so quick to blast out of corners into the straights then the cars would be faster still.

A bike will also get you to your destination quicker, without having to break the speed limit. There's nothing quite like effortlessly dodging traffic on a bike. And you also get to legally use the transit lane :)

In my opinion, own one of each!

who cares anyway. Busas are ugly and are no longer the fastest bike in the world. I think the 1100rr is now? Well its definately not the busa.

What is the 1100rr??? If u r talking top speed I think the ZX12 is the quickest. As for 1/4 mile times I would like to see the new 1000 fireblade (coming out in a couple months). I think that will have to be the quickest of the superbikes. The GSXR1000 is probably the quickest at the moment.

    • The cam I am actually putting in (a few posts up) is actually smaller than my current one. At least duration/overlap wise. All the chop stuff I hear just sounds like an engine running badly, because it is. I then envision driving it around in 1st gear and being massively sad about it bucking to the beat of said chop. There is an idle video of someone with a similar cam floating around the internet, but mine is a custom cam (so is his) so it'll never be the same, plus the fact exhausts are entirely different. What I want to do is put some bullet mufflers/race mufflers in to replace a couple sections straight pipes that currently replace the two extra cats that I don't need. But this is even further down the line!
    • I can tell you now, when the bracket that the little hydraulic ram attaches to snaps, with a subframe, and V8 from an AMG C63 on it, it sounds like someone letting shotgun off right beside you. It leaves your ears ringing, and a huge thankfulness that you never ever put a body part under something heavy that's only supported by a hydraulic lift...
    • Still not a guarantee fix. I used a high quality butyl-mastiq (the black goo that's not really silicone nor polyurethane, same stuff they use from the factory that just spreads out like melty cheese), and I still get lots of water on both sides of the trunk when raining or washing the car. I also suspect the factory spoiler rubber gasket might not be sealing well, so I'm thinking of adding a thin layer of grey silicone around the bolt holes on both sides and see if that's where it also leaks from. The biggest issue is that these cars don't come with a drain hole on each side like other coupes and hatchbacks.
    • I hate it, but maybe he could paint it Monster jam style and call it...godzilla?
    • Would seem to me to be appropriate to go GTR style bar. There are options with and without N1 vent holes, with the GTR lower lip integral (because FG copy). https://justjap.com/search?q=r32 bumper
