The times are a bit of a lottery. All depends on the rider, weather. wind, temperature and so on. So two riders can have wildly different times on the same bike. Dani Pedrosa would do a great time...me not so good.

Read that a stock ZX-12 got under ten seconds...cor that is fast!

fuel apparently, personally i haven't taken the time to weigh it:p

perhaps they've stopped using pound sterling because having to multiply it by such a huge number as "2" to get the equivalent in dollars was getting tough for ol' dubya to get his head round?:smt102

as for independence, didn't john cleese do something about that recently?:confused:

[quote=PAPPACLART;1202119]Good sv650 with pro drag racer of jockey stature will ave!

0.60 3.6
0-80 5.8
0-100 9.00
0-110 12.00
0-120 22.00
12.20 113mph

SV650's would be quicker then the vast majority of cars on the road from 0-60mph or 0-100mph but from 100mph and above an SV650 would get stuffed by a sportscar if side by side.

I can personally vouch that a fairly standard SVS is quicker than a Ferrari
355 Spyder. :riding:

But where are you likely to need that? On one of those motor'yawn'ways, massively over the speeding limit?
Believe me, I realised yesterday that the SV is fast enough for me. ;)
