Predictions...? ZX-10R vs RC8R
I'm riding a KTM 1190 RC8R...last time bone stock it went 176.5 on the limiter. Now its been tuned, Akra ti exhaust and -1 on the back, should be about 180 hopefully on GPS.
Buddy is on an 06 10R, about my size. Gutted exhaust, BMC, stacks, no tune.
8.5/10ths roll from 3000 rpms.
I have a sinking feeling he might get me at the 7-8/10ths but we'll see how it goes.

I feel like I will, right at the end too. But I'm game.
You feel like bringing the 1427, 1287 or 1352 out?

WIth no tune in the ZX10, and your skills, it's a toss up IMO.

My only chance is to get him down low. I know he'll wanto rematch somewhere like 1 million RPMs in 1st gear too. Up to the 7/10ths it would be close but damn if that last little bit with the ram air on the 10 might get me.
He goes low 180s on the same year R1 with more stuff done to it.

Wish I could, but I have plans. I hope that KTM is still around when I do come out.

I predict you will hit the limiter at about 176.5 mph, again.
