Are you being very technical about the "enter" phrase? If so then technically the Hyabusa could enter a corner faster than any stock bike out there. Not saying the outcome would be good.

I'm no expert by any means but I'd guess if you put Rossi on a GSXR600 and a GSXR1000 (Of the same year) and he was up at Deal's Gap (and supposing fear of crashing was about the same as a track). I feel that he'd be faster on the GSXR600 since I believe they have a shorter wheelbase, lighter weight, etc.

But I'm also sure that Rossi and a handful of people in the world would be able to exploit those differences.
