I generally dont give cagers the satisfaction. Gas is too expensive to waste it on a sure thing. That's like racing a stock Civic while you're in a modded RX7.

 

I have never seen a car that was stock other then like a Z06/ZR1, Bugatti, hi end pasta rocket, Beat a motorcycle ( 600 and up ) in the 1/4 mile. I can't see an ( un-molested ) street car beating are bikes.

 

v-6 350z's cannot take a superchicken. Proved it multiple, multiple times.

The superchicken can beat a 2007 stock Mustang GT. From 60mph and up, the superchicken blows the mustang out of the water. Like really, really bad. They are also limited to ~140mph.

Stock WRX's are also not a problem.

 

an older Lambo. followed by a newer Ferrari passed me on the freeway.....so i got on it and caught up. they noticed and dropped the hammer. so i followed suite. after a 1/4 mile i remembered in a noob, so i cut it out. it was fun. but uneventful.

 

I can't be bothered beating up on cars with a modern bike, as it's just too easy.

But a couple of years ago I snotted a Mitsi Evo VII with my old '82 CB1100F, and that was quite a grin. Did it repeatedly at a series of lights, then out of town he caught me up as I was cruising on a twisty road, so I left him miles behind there, too.

PS in 40 years' riding on the street, I do not think anything has ever passed me on a corner.

 

My first bike was a 89 CBR 600 the Hurricane. I put her together with the help of a friend. She didn't look like much, but she ran strong.

I was at a stoplight and a 1993 Impalla SS (four door vette) pulled up next to me. He reved his engine a time or two, so we took off. I smoked him.

I let off before the next light and let him run beside me for a min. or two. He was just shaking his head. Silly car drivers.

 

I followed a Volvo up pretty fast on the interstate one time. I thought it was hysterical that a Volvo was doing a bucktwenty plus!

I do get a kick out of dropping the hammer on some of these clueless women that drive imports. I think some of them actually believe they have something for me (or they are just lost in their own little perfect world and I'm just imagining it, lol). Just a little silly fun as they disappear in my mirrors.

 

In Orlando, southbound on SOBT @ 3AM and a Saleen is roaring and snorting next to me at each traffic light for about a mile. After he gets my eye and a nod for a launch at the next light I set a plan because I know he has a clutch.

On the green we go and I snick smooth 1st to 2nd and throttle wrist it to hold my front wheel even with his. I feather into 3rd and wait in the meat of my torque curve while I listen to the open pony exhaust roar.

Left fist on my hip, I watch his fender out of the corner of my eye. Sure enough, the front of the saleen dropped as the driver lifted off the gas and stabbed his clutch for the upshift. THAT was my signal. Without removing my fist from my hip, I rolled the throttle to WFO, canted myself in the bike's saddle and watched eye candy struggle to keep up with my S'hawk as I strolled causally away into the night air.

Two clutchless shifts for me and I was cruisin' when he finally caught up at Taft-Vineland to receive my left handed scout salute.

 

According to a cycleworld article I read, the VTR will do 0-60 in 2.5 seconds... not much will take that. Top speed, sure, the VTR doesn't have a super high top speed.

 

Every once in a while I'll split lanes at a red light and the vehicle next to me takes exception. They will floor it when it goes green, and I just take it up through 1st then level out, having left them in the dust.

The funny thing is that more often than not the offended driver is a woman in a minivan or a guy in a Nissan Xterra. If they repeat at the next light, I just let them go and give the side of my helmet a slap...Dooh!

 

I have raced numerous friends bikes in the past few years. A short list would be a F4i which the hawk was just as fast if not a little faster than. A 05 gsxr 600 which we were about dead even, an 02 R1 that smoked me all day long , a geared 02 r6 which we were dead even, and xb12r which i made look like a 50cc dirtbike, So my conclusion is that the superhawk is just as fast as most 600's and slower than any sports bike above that. But my favorite street racing stories were on my 03' modded busa. I put down 175hp at the wheel. I had a gsxr 1000 pull by me while i was cruising at around 100. He had about 100 feet on me when i rolled on. I watched the speedo hit 150 as i was passing him and could of pulled forever on him. But i let off at 175 and watched him rip by. Pretty sure he thought hed just smoked me. I didnt want to go much faster than that. I also ran a 05+ supercharged mustang from about 70MPH on. No idea what he had done to the car but must of had AT least 500+ to the wheels. The guys kept on me like a fly on ****. Came up on traffic really fast and laid on the brakes. Even with shitty busa brakes i got the thing to slow down. Im not 100% sure but i think the mustangs brakes melted.

 

I realized how stupid I was at 150 mph.

 

I had a SL55 or 65 try to run with me, I had him on top end, he beat me in accel (I rolled on in 6th) we were running 155 through a section of highway that required me to lean pretty damn far to keep it on the road.
