I don't know about all that. I'd have to see them line up with simillar mods, simillar weight riders, etc. I still think in a straight line the Busa or ZX-14 will own most liter bikes.

gixxer1k's k5 handles itself quite well against the 500lb crowd. Im sure current gen litres are similarly nasty with it

the new liters are alil quicker than the busa/zx14 in the 1/4

til u start moddin em. the bigger bikes handle a extra 60 70 hp alot better than the liters, easier to ride with the extra weight and length.

Until the first curve when the best rider of the two would pull away...Come on the world is not made up of Dyno hp analysis. The rider, weight, environment, all too subjective to say one is king of the other. The are different bikes and you can't make up an expirement in order to get the results you want...

Lets say 4th gear roll on from 45 mph to terminal velocity on a straight hiway? OK Busa wins, everyone happy?

Im glad Someone agrees with me.

I'm not using HP Data Sheets Im using Logic....a ZX 10 is Lighter than a Busa and makes About if nto More power...I just dont see the 10 not holding up nicely if not pulling away from a Busa...and when it hits the corners....zx 10 weighs roughly 400lbs and is lighter than the busa and smaller and easier to flick through the twisties.
