We should ask one of the cocky new guys to tell us what the 0-60 time is for a 600, then ask him again whether a 600 is a slower bike.

In the same article, the GSX-R 750 came in 4th place (behind the Yamaha R1 and the Kawa ZR-10), and had a 0-60 time of about 3.4 seconds.

One interesting point was the comparison between "factory specifications" and what was measured on the test bikes - the Kawa had slightly lower factory specs, but showed about 3 hp more than the GSX-R when they compared them on a dyno.

i cant believe this thread hasnt been locked yet...Vehement is obviously not looking for good advice but looking for someone to agree with him. He needs to go find a racing website and they will all welcome hiim into the fold (hopefully that doesnt mean what his bike will look like within 6 months).
