Yea - supposedly the bike was "racing" w/ him... and was his buddy... but iono man... bikes can be awfully fast and a 12.5 second G isnt as fast as most bikes... a stock R6 does what a high 10 second quarter - and thats a standing quarter - if he is on a roll already - forget it man...

well the brightt side of all of this is that that car def has much more potential and once he gets more practice he should be in 11's in no time

Again, wow...you guys are a bunch of n00bs. Explain to me how quarter-mile E.T.s come into play here. Is there a part of the video that I missed where they went at it from a dig?

Bikes are nowhere near as fast as they are at high speeds relative to their 0-60 and 1/4-mile acceleration figures. They are as aerodynamic as an office-chair and lack the sheer power to overcome that. It doesn't matter what a car runs in the 1/4-mile, if it traps above 120 MPH, it will likely walk away from a 600cc sport-bike when speeds get into the triple-digits. Sure a stock R6 even with an average rider runs a high-10 @ 130+ MPH, but only the later is what counts when you are talking about high-speed acceleration. Even then, a 1/4-mile trap-speed naturally has low-end acceleration factored in. A car wont even have to trap the same as a bike to walk away from it at speed, say a 60-150 MPH roll.
