I don't know if the CBR would do 155 or not, but isn't the power/top speed curve an exponential one? All that jazz about top speed, and power squared, etc, etc (I forget, I could look it up but I cba ). Basically just saying, is a 26% higher top speed achievable with 56% more power? I know they're different aerodynamically too, which will affect things!
