The old R6 ran quarter mile times in 10.8 and thats with only 105 hp. The new one is faster but offical times haven't been posted for it. So if there are dsms that do that on the street man more power to you.
If you raced the bike on university, then the guy dosn't know how to ride or the bike is a p.o.s., frankly anyone that takes there bike down there isn't to bright. Street racing cars through stop lights is brilliant. Not to bright on the drivers part either you could run the idiot over when he hits the sidewalk or another car. Try a interstate with minimum traffic
I can beat vipers off the line with my bike with out pulling the front tire off the ground. If I do end up getting the R6 this year too I will garentee it will smoke a Viper or Zo6 as well.
Trying not to preach, but sport bikes are the fastest street driven transportation you can get. Just fact the power to wieght ratio is crazy the new litter bikes, zx10r and R1, coming out next year are rumored to make 190-200 horse power and wiegh just over 400 pounds wet wieght. Now thats some POWER!
