anybody race the new bmw??

[squale147]

who is the fastest.... This will always be a competition. Someone said it in a different post but i will believe it when it is in guinness, every mag, show and company have there own opinion and can make there own results if they want. It doesn’t bother me one bit if some one can push harder in the turns then me or get a better 1/4 mile time, its about having the bike you want and enjoying it, the busa is an amazing machine and i couldn’t be happier with it, if a bike takes the official title from the busa you know there will be a gen3 out before we can blink heck they probably have one in the works already, and it will go back and forth like that. I guess what it comes down to is are you riding to enjoy the freedom of being on 2 wheels or are you just trying to always one up some one? Enjoy what you got and don’t stress if you get beat

heres to you bmw with your qs,tc,abs, nice try but no cigar.....

You might can spell but can you READ? He already mentioned his busa is NOT STOCK...AND he has aready run a BMW w/ pipe and tune said to make 195 to the wheel and HE WALKED IT with his Busa. Sheesh

Yeah, you mean THIS?:

I ran a S1000RR w a full Akra&tune from a roll about a half dozen times..he said he made 195rwhp. My Gen2 is not stock,I pulled him each time. If I was stock he woulda killed me

That's EXACTLY what I mean by denial. A lighter bike with 195hp at the rear wheel and he walked it? With no nitrous or turbo? Okay, I'll buy that...as long as the Beemer rider was lying about his bike, had never ridden a bike fast in a straight line before, was blind, and had lost the use of his arms!

There are a couple of new kids in town, and there's more to follow. The day of the busa being the fastest or most powerful are done. It's a great bike and I didn't buy it because of it's reputation anyway, but for those of you that did, well, I have some rather bad news.

Assuming again...for the record my bike is a Carpenter 1441 that traps in the mid 160's in the 1/4...now what smartass???
Now lets hear some more bashing on my bike,how its still not gonna beat a modded S1000RR and whatever other nonsensical drivel you can muster
Class act you are....

Wowee...100 more cc's? Mid 160's in the 1/4? You are a god to me. I am not worthy

 

[bigreef]

The Suzuki Hayabusa is the fastest production bike on the planet!! Do your research people...

Exactly what was expected from you....is that all you have to say? No more assumptions on your part? Wanna flame me some more? Go for it..I'll sit here and watch you get pissed&throw some more insults towards me..shows your maturity level

1441! I see BSTs and a full Akrapovic too, I almost missed them because I was distracted by that mudflap. Mudflap=stock bike...wrong, sneaky bastid!

i was thinking the samething as you that it may be the end of the busa being king but after running that one last night busa still holds the title.. honestly it wasent even close..

Rear fender,reflectors,warning stickers;everything is there to make it look like its nothing special..alot of people dont notice the BST's for the very same reason you mentioned lol..I like it better that way

The Suzuki Hayabusa is the fastest production bike on the planet!! Do your research people...

Only because the 99 and 00 models went around 194mph, before the 01 Japanese 186mph/300km restriction was in place...also mainly in part due to the Busa. Japanese big four had a standing agreement on the 300km restriction, supposedly they figured that they'de limit themselves before governments got involved and imposed a restriction.
The Busa is in the Guiness world records for that, and will continue to be...for a only little while longer. As far as I know the Germans and Italians don't conform to the Japanese's honor system, so their bikes aren't restricted.
The Busa has better aerodynamics, but all the newer 1000s continue to make more power and lose weight.
Once BMW gets a few more mph out of their stock 1000RR, the Busa will fall as the recorded king, as I belive the BMW supposedly does over 190mph stock. Granted it takes Alot of power to continue to go fast, especially with emission restrictions, and aerodynamics that can't compete with the Busa's.
It's all a pretty pointless arguement anyway. The record is for Stock bikes, and who is the fastest, as in top speed...not the quickest, as in who can get to a certain speed first.
Turn off the restrictions on a stock Busa(gear limiters and top speed, BMW doesn't have it, remember?)you'll find a higher top speed. I've heard 196/197mph on an otherwise stock unrestricted Busa.
So little seperates all the new liter bikes, Busa, ZX14 that it makes it easy to see what always holds true... it's all in the rider.

BMW needs to build a bigger bike to be in the same class as the busa. Until then, 2 totally different monsters. Busa will and always be king.

couldn't have said it better. remove the limiters, get rid of the secondaries and the bike is a true monster.

Like the K1300S? It's not a Busa beater, but it's basically the same type of bike.

i think if you slammed the BMW,strap it and could ride it down 1/4 think it would be a harder bike to drive in that case. busa's are heavy mine (08) at the track with 1/4 tank of gas weight was 510lbs which who knows how close a scale at the track is got to be pretty close but again might weight 515 else where point being not a light bike. if the BMW is faster or not i'd have to race to to see it for myself and would love to BUT even if it is faster....still ugly

i sat on one and it didn't feel bad but still our bikes are sexier even for a fatty lol.
