[Z06] R1 Vs. Z06. What would happen?
#41
And that 250lbs rider in the video is not one of those "good riders".
I have 794rwhp and am dead even with the newer R1's stock with a 150lbs rider to ~155mph. This is from a 50 roll on. I have Z51 gearing so 50mph is my kill zone in 2nd gear and I did not pull 1 inch on him till the top of 4th. This rider has a handfull of 9 sec time slips so I knew he could ride.

Look up cms z06 on YouTube. You'll see what happens with a c6 z06 vs r1!!
I was a street bike stunt man for about 9 years. Have been riding for 16 years. They are fast but not unbeatable. Hate it when people think that they are.
Hey Garrett, let him know I'll race him!!

FACT -- An 06 and up 1L bike is very hard to drive to its potential. 9 out of 10 times you run into a 1L bike on highway the rider will not be able to beat a Z06 with +650rwhp from 60-160mph.
FACT -- A 2008 R1 has ran a 9.1@148 STOCK (135lbs rider w/suit 1/8th tank) I've seen it.

Its all about the rider. There are a lot of crappy riders on the highway. A stock C6Z will beat 90% of 600s because of that. You are right about the wind resistance thing but also note the fastest bike in the standing mile hit 278mph while the fastest car in the standing mile hit 266mph.
Here is the car:

Im late to this thread but just noticed it now. Here is a vid of my 2003 R1 (lightest R1 ever made) vs a head/cam C6 Z06. My bike is a 2003, so its slow by modern bike standards, however, given the fact that it is piped/geared and I weigh 140 lbs, it is comparable to the average 200 lb rider on a newer litre bike from a slower roll.
Recognizing that the bike has an advantage, I started in 3rd gear from a 70 kph roll (normally would be in 1st or 2nd). I put multiple lengths of him. Later, we did it off the line, and as you can see, I botched the launch big time, but still managed to catch up

I havent lost to any car making less than 750ish rwhp under 160 mph.

I compared these two videos (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fVND3-cEiE) Skip to 4:10

It looks like my 600 stays with a stock C6 Z06 from 80-150. I think it would pull on me after that tho.

You will also have to keep in mind that bike speedos are notoriously optimistic (Even before changing sprockets, mine was off 7%, which I corrected via a speedohealer). Based on the races I have seen between my friend's stock C6 Z06 and 600's, I would put my money on the car if you were running up to 150mph.

Dude its a liter bike. They trap between 135-140mph in the 1/4 compared to the 125-130 trap from a stock C6Z. You need a little supercharger or h/c/i + spray love to beat one.
I'm sorry to say it but if anyone here says they beat a liter bike or a hayabusa at the track or in mexico with less than 700whp to 160mph they beat the rider, not the bike or they are just outright lying.

Robots don't drive. A win is a win. People race because they want to see if they can beat the other person. We don't need a calculation to prove who'd win. THAT'S BORING!!!!!!
