First off I don't see too many 600's running 11's stock, I know of one that couldn't out run a low 13 sec mustang on the freeway.
Second why is it that everyone calls bullshit on a 11.00 mustang beating a busa yet, you say your 600 can beat one. [/QB]
I have a buddy with an FZR 600 (1993) with a pipe and a jet kit that ran 11.32 @ 117 MPH
On the flip side, I rode my ZX-9R Ninja to an 11.08 @ 131 MPH..
What does this mean? I'm not a bike drag racer. I love to ride, but I'm no Rickey Gadson. A 600 can be a seriously fast machine if ridden properly. Said FZR was also completely smoked on the freeway by another friend with a bone stock 02 GSXR600. New 600 technology allows these things to make ~100 rwhp and weigh 350-375 pounds... You do the math. No, they don't have the power and torque of a literbike, but unless you ride like a moron, who'll miss it? I bought mine because a 600cc bike that runs well with a 150lb rider doesn't work nearly as well with a 300lb rider.
