'05 Busa vs. '98 R1

[sleepless_red]

FI was introduced in '02. I had a'01 and it wasn't FI.

What would the outcome be, if it were like an 06 R-1 ? I know a guy that I ride with, and he "tells me" how fast his 06 is, But everytime we get on it he backs off around 100, or so ?

I have an 06 LE with full system, and map ?



OH YEAH, eat his a$$ up !!!!!

He said he never lost to a Busa ,, Maybe he never raced one!!!!!

Just your luck and you'll come to find that your lawn guy is some vetran racer and his version of a "stock" bike is very loosely used.

More than likely it's a stock 98'R1 that is the fastest thing on the planet to that guy.

Or the Busa's didn't know they were racing. I had a 636 one time in a lane next to me, at a red light, he tore off, and at the next light he said "you weren't expecting that from a little Kawi, did yah" ? LOL !!!!!

You should make a bet with him....

race him:

you win-he cuts your lawn for free for an entire year.

he wins-you pay him double what you're paying him now.

My prediction:



YOU'RE GETTING YOUR LAWN MOWED FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR!!

I think I would use a bit of caution... has not said crap about the R1 yet... he could show up on this:

It might be a 98-R1 with a Genesis Fz1 motor with a 1125 BigBore Kit. They are quick as hell. Dont take him lighty. Make sure race is 1/4 mile not 1/8mile.

 

[99'busa]

def. have a look at it first. he got to see yours

 

[craigntx]

i smoked the crap outta the only r1 ever tried me

A buddy had a 98 r1 that would run circles around my Busa! But he was slammed on the ground and 6" over!

A well ridden R1 will run 6.70's in the eighth, usually. A poorly ridden one will be wel into the sevens.

You have nothing to worry about, besides, I sold you the rear sprocket!
