The CBR1000RR has 180hp to the rear wheel. The Ducati has 145hp to the rear wheel. The CBR rider is 150lbs. The Ducati Rider is 215lbs. He gave the Ducati rider a 7-8 bike length lead and they did a rolling start to make up for the acceleration disadvantage due to the weight. Considering what the Duc rider was up against, the duc didn't do bad at all. When CBR rider passes the duc rider in the vid, they were at 170mph. That's how fast these bikes are. From 24 seconds in the vid to 32seconds the bikes went from 120mph to 170mph. The average bike takes about 20-25 seconds. These bikes only took 8 seconds. The ducati rider is 3 teeth up on the rear sprocket too, so he lost about 10mph on top end. ENJOY

The race isn't as bad as it looks, once the duc rider dissappears from the vid, he's actually right next to the CBR rider for a couple of seconds, then once the CBR rider goes past, the duc rider gets in the draft and stays within 4 bike lengths until the end. Good run for the Duc.

I won't mention any names in this vid since we have unwanted guests here. :D

Dude he crushed you,..... um,, I mean the red Duc :oops:

Dude he crushed you,..... um,, I mean the red Duc :oops:

The bike is a monster. And it's not a true CBR1000RR. He bored it out. It's like a friggin Busa.

I wonder what would have happened if the Duc rider left the 37 tooth sprocket on?? :roll:

His camera was in a bad spot. You can't see the duc rider the whole time he's behind the CBR rider to see how close he was.

With the numbers his bike is putting out, I would certainly hope his bike is faster in a straight line.

he was shifting when he passed.......i think he took it easy on you.

and tell MS to at least wear a freakin jacket :roll:

He did take it easy on the Duc rider, kind of.

The Duc rider is just too heavy. 70lbs is like 10 horsepower. NYCs1000 should ride the Duc so the comparison would be a little better.


Also, When they passed the White SUV, the Duc rider caught a lot of headshake and had to let off of the gas and that kind of messed up the run. You can't really see the headshake in the vid.

When he passed he just shifted into 6th gear. He still had a whole gear left.

Turbo, you are full of so many excuses it's not even funny!!!!!!

I thought you guys switched bikes and the result was the same :roll:

MS will tell you the same thing. He saw the headshake and started laughing.

Who's making excuses??? Nobody's making any excuse. Everyone knows that the CBR is faster. The run was not done to beat the CBR. The run was done to gauge how much of an improvement the Duc was over a stock one.

And what the Duc lacks in very top end, it more than makes up for it in handling and braking. It's made for the track only. Not drag racing.

But it's all good ByTor. I'll just take it out on you at the track tomorrow. 8)

Then let me start practicing my excuses.............

1) "It was my first time at that track........"

2) "I was getting used to my new 180 rear..........."

3) "The sun got in my eyes............."

4) "My bike is stock.............."

5) "I needed to take a piss..........."

The "take a piss" one is good. :lol:

god damn that thing is fast! the duc did surprisingly well though. good job on the motor build.

Why doesn't Metalscorpio come on here at all?

you ring?

Damn that was fast :eek:

Glad you could make it here 8)

So what did you think of Turbo's Duc. He called me right away to tell me how sweet your RR is. I think he is in love :lol:

LOL. His machine is sweet man. I told him that if i had something like that I would only use it to park in front of all the Univerisities around the area and pick up Italian chicks with it, nothing else. I very strong and pulls like hell; like he posted before, his front end just kept jumping on every shift (can realy see it that good on the video due to camera possition) but i was keeping an eye on him the whole time.

About him been in Love...I think so too. I let him out on my bike before his bike was finished and he came back with a mouth full of teeth that he could not close :D

He offered to let me take the Duc around Pocono East tomorrow for a few laps but I run GP shift and I'm scared that I would have a brain fart and down shift an up shift :eek:

I can't wait to try it out on the street though.

You should have signed up for tomorrows track day at Pocono.

What amazes me about MetalScorpio's bike is that there is power everywhere. There are no dips whatsoever.

I honestly don't think that the ZX-10R, R1, or the new Gixxer can get a power curve that smooth. That is pure fuckin Honda.

would love to be there but I Work for a City agency and in charge of Budget, July 1 is the end of my budget and i have to get everything done before that time. Maybe next time of we just take a trip up to CT. (i use to do that every sunday morning to Davery anyway).

i believe there was a guy that once told me that a duc with 140 RWHP could beat up on just about everything on the road beacuse V-twin power was delivered differently and that it was the equivalent to 170-180 hp in inline 4's?? :roll:

i'll do some looking :wink:

Come on up to my place (its 15 minutes from the NY border) and we'll take a nice rip to Bear Mtn and you guys can split off from there to head back to Queens.

LOL, yeah, and if you find one call me..LOL.

Yeah By-troy, sounds like a great idea. this weekend is not a good one but let's get something going for the next weekend.

I said 140hp on a twin is equivelent to 160 on an inline four. I'll try to find the thread.

I still stand by that statement. I think I would put a woopin on a stock Honda.

What do you think Metal?

160 ?

my bad :roll:

Yeah By-troy, sounds like a great idea. this weekend is not a good one but let's get something going for the next weekend.

You bet. We'll get this done. Be prepaired to leave Queens bright and early if we want some clear roads to horse around on. I hate traffic!!!!!
Should only take you 30-35 min to get to my place or a coffee shop right off the Merrit Parkway (Hutch turns into the Merrit when you get over the CT border).

I know the Merrit parkway very well (or use to). i dated a girl up there on rout 7 and i use to drive there every night (fun highway too.)

Bad ass!!!!!! I'm off exit 34 in Stamford.

The Merrit is real fun. Hit that shit real early in the morning and you're havin some fun for sure!!!!!!!

Now now Tor, speeding on public roads is against the law and just plain dangerous.

Take it to the track. FTP!

Gonna have to do this run on Sunday July 10th. I'll be out of town the weekend of the 2nd :x

Mark your calendar for July 10th.

Turbo, you in on this?

Yeah Ding Dong, you up for this Turbo?

I'll get back to you guys on the date.

ByTor, I just spoke to Mike. Answer your phone.

Turbo, you got smoked, plain and simple. That CBR has got some guts. Then again, you gotta love the inline 4 versus a v-twin.

lol. lol. lol :lol: so what you're telling me is that i already killed the chosen one to destroy the 4 cylinders? damn...or should i say...ooppss i did it again. LOL

:lol: from now oh, Turbo's new name is going to be MR ANDERSON and i will be AGENT SMITH. you know the deal Turbo...it's Inhabitable. 8)

on that note.......i'm guessing Turbo took the WRONG colored pill a LOOOONNG time ago. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Maybe he was talking about Jap 600's, since he had nothing for my stock bike with factory pipe. :eek:

I will say this much about Turbo........ He's a good sport 8)

not even....if i had the 600RR he still had a hand full. I was actually better at out of the hole on the 6 then the 1000, i use to do the same run when i had it with other bikes (gsxr1000 and busas) and i would be out front all the way to 3rd gear into 4th. I'm trying to get me another one for the track only

I will say this much about Turbo........ He's a good sport 8)

that he is...oh wait...this is not bashing turbo post. Damn. wrong post, sorry.

both of you were haulin serious ass......and the DUC is a beautiful machine, handsdown.

:lol: from now oh, Turbo's new name is going to be MR ANDERSON and i will be AGENT SMITH. you know the deal Turbo...it's Inhabitable. 8)

I think you mean, inevitable. :oops: :lol:
