I'd stab in the dark and say around 13 seconds?

Maybe slower, I dunno. I dont think much faster certainly.

perhaps in yankeeland...

over here before you get to the quarter mile point you experience a phenomenon alien to most americans, the "corner"

Mid to low 12s for the 650. My best is a 12.4 but could have improved the 60' times a lot. Seen stock Gixxer thou do a mid 10 that night! SVthou about a sec quicker than the 650.

still faster than 95% of cars out there, the only way a car can beat abike on 1/4 mile is to have NOS etc etc
