So the bike with you on it is around 284kg and the bike makes 100bhp That gives a bhp per tonne figure of..... 352.11bhp/tonne= not enough to worry the busa over a ¼mile drag race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 352bhp per tonne your giving away just over 200bhp/ton to me so I don't think it would be quite as close as you'd hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are just saying things, get out there and lets see you're timing slip if you can consistently run under 11 seconds quarter mile then you'd be able to see me on the busa but until you do you're just talking shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catteeclan Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago Talking to the chap in Colchester Diesels today. When I went in Monday he asked what bike I was riding and I never asked him. Turns out he has GSXR1000, turned and banging out around 210bhp. That should get down the strip fairly well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s around 205 BHP per tonne, not in the same field as a Busa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
