A buddy of mine has a lightly modified 1125R that would absolutely blow a 600's doors off. The thing is pretty ridiculous. 1098 territory.

Build the engine reliable enough and the rider can push almost as hard as they want. It's all in the hands of the engineers.

Dont get me wrong, I love my Buell. A much better canyon bike than my 6R. Torquy, powerful, responsive, but at a 10/10 ths pace when the gloves come off it gets outclassed. The in line jap bikes go faster more efficiently and with less work.

I was talking about against GSXR750s anyway...Here we go again but telling me that your friend's modified 1125cc bike will "blow the doors off 600s" is hardly impressive imho.

I agree that the Buell has it's strengths and place in the sport bike hierarchy...

That doesn't exactly support the idea that they can run in Sportbike and compete on an even playing field.
