There's alot of poop talkin goin on over at the R1 board. They talkin bout how the new R1 will smoke the Busa. I hope the hell not. I'm pretty good at drag racing and If I get beat by an R1, I'll flip out!!!
Good call.The new R1 is going to be an awesome bike. And yes, there is talk on an R1 board of being faster than the Busa. But most of the guys insisting that the R1 with smoke the Busa aren't getting as much respect as the guys who are saying that the Busa will still own the 1/4 mile and top speed.
Even though they are R1 enthusiasts, some of those guys really know bikes.And of those guys, most will admit that the Busa has a very real advantage in torque. And that the weight and length of the Busa really do help it win acceleration races.
There will be some trash talking guys who favor a particular liter bike over the Busa. But much of that talk will die down by the Summer when they have learned the truth.
Of course, a liter bike could make a fairly decent 1/4 mile bike with some choice mods like an extended swingarm, NOS, etc. But then so too does the Busa...
Uh.....what exactly do you mean?Anyone can go fast in the straight line
