Bike performance/ spec database or resource?
Has anyone got a link to a site which compares 0-60, BHP, weight etc etc?

Re: Bike performance/ spec database or resource?
Manufacturers figures for optimism? Magazine tests?

Re: Bike performance/ spec database or resource?
Kinda suggestions.
Autotrader does give you a clue, but gives no credit for where that information is from. And to be fair it doesn't really make that much difference... it's not like buying the latest GSYZR1000mentalba$tardRRR that it matters whether it's 180 or 180.1bhp... 0-60 is fairly academic above about 90bhp.

Re: Bike performance/ spec database or resource?
Well OK I think I made the point badly there, but I'd say you don't really need to look at a spec sheet, if you're looking for a sports 6 you know it'll probably have about 100bhp, do about 150mph, and 0-60 in what 3.5?
You know roughly what a bikes going to behave like, unless you just want direct comparison for pub ammo?
