Cycle World Turn and Burn

Just picked up a copy today and you don't have a copy GET ONE !!

The 08 zx10 took top pick as the king of quick from 0 to 180 MPH .. It was a full second quicker than the 08 busa 0 to 180 MPH .The zx10 clocked that 180 in just over a half mile or 880 yards !!! .Top speed clocked in at 184 and change.... ...The zx14 took top MPH at 187 and change with the Busa at 185 ...

The zx10 was behind in the 1/4 mile numbers at a 10.01 @ 150.05 the 150.05 MPH trap speed was the highest MPH of all the bikes tested ...The busa was 9.90 @ 147.94 and the zx14 came it at 9.97 @ 146.19 ..Where the zx10 shined was from the 1/4 mile to the 180 MPH mark leaving the other bikes for dead ...

Cycle World stated >There is no better performance -per-dollar vehicle, two wheels or four than the zx10.. For top end madness go green !!!!

A liter bike on top of the pile from 100 to 180 mph??!! ....you bet....

My question is : Wasn't the Hayabusa a ringer when it came to aerodynamics and top speed pulls??

what happened??

Awesome performance on the ZX-10R...

Guys I'm tellin ya my 05 10R eats everything in thaT SAME RANGE.It's NOT by any means faster that every bike out there but from 0 to 180 it's a freekin ROCKET !! 3 and 4 seconds aheard at that point constitutes a RACE WIN in any book.... We are talking 1/2 mile not 1/4 so when I say my 10R beats the shit out of all these Busas and other big bore bikes and ALL I HEAR IS NO WAY ! Yes way someone finally designed a test and explained what I've been trying to say for a long time. BY THE WAY FISH ............. I just handed a NEW 08 BUSA it's ass in a big fashion this past weekend EXACTLY like this... AT 180 MPH being 4 seconds ahead is a freekin Football field... It's RACE OVER AND GAME DONE !!!

THANK YOU WHOM EVER POSTED THIS....... Some people only believe what they read right up to the point they get to feel it for their self..

I have had several encounters with Busas and each time the 10 handed them their ass easily.
I read the article and the new 10 did as they say "Ruled the runway".

i watched a stock 08 zx10r stay with a worked 06 busa from a roll to top of gearing on the busa and never left its side, and this busa runs 8:80s at the track on nitrous but wasnt spraying then. I also tried to run the new 10 from a roll on my extended and every bolt on 05 zx10r and he leaves me in the dust , and my 10r in the quarter has been 9:12 at 150, the new ten is fast !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
