a buddy of mine has a gixxer 600 that will out run most R1's, and gixxer 1000's. be he has an *** of money in it.Honda CBR600RR = fastest 600cc production bike
Yamaha R6s = least comfortable bike
GSX-R= Known to be a tad slower than the others but better comfort
and holy god Aprilia's are nice
all street bikes are fast...but there only as fast as the rider takes it. just cuz an R1 can do 180+ that don't mean the rider will ever take it to that level..
yeah 500cc 2 stroke GP bikes do 239mph and they weigh 275lbs have 200+ hp rev to 15k and are just ****ing beasts...sad dude died at bonneville but shit happens real quick at 240...http://sports.yahoo.com/top/news?slug=afp-usaccidentmoto090408&prov=afp&type=lgns
wow, a 500cc bike can do 239mph???
why?? everybody recommends lighter bikes or ones with smaller engines. is there a difference?Its not just the speed its the being able to have proper throttle control...liter bikes have to be finessed to be ridden correctly and that takes allot of experiance...if you start out on a liter bike you will most likely end up dead or ****ed up forever...Bikes are no joke...
