That Chubby spanked him! I'd like to know what bike he was on.........somewhat an embarrassment to the race. :D

This bike is set up very close to mine (no internal motor mods)........that's about all the little 990 cc v-twin's got to move the 400 lbs + rider.

I just love it when a car beats a bike. OR in this case.. SMOKES IT!!:waveflag:

Looks like a SV650, all 65hp of glory. No surprises there :secret:

Superduke FTW!

Reminds me of when SW and I were headed to the restaurant --- in his twin turbo Ferrari -- he jumps on it not knowing there was a bike along side… next thing you know the bike is jumping on it and just gets SMOKED… WE got a good laugh out of that 'cause we weren't even aware of the bike!

The '57 was pretty fast regardless of what bike that was.


I sold my '56 to a buddy who is going to run it at BJ in January -- I was texting with him on Sunday 'cause he was under it cleaning with a Q-tip… and I asked if he'd driven it much… and he's saying -- yeah -- and that it was powerful as hell and launches straight as an arrow… (which I already knew of course)… And about how some new SRT challenged him and he wasted the guy (they're not quick or fast - in fact having owned one - they suck).

For whatever reason -- guys always think the "old cars" are still running around with 283's in them. HA!

Man that 57 can move. It's not easy to beat a bike from a dig like that even if it is just an SV650. I sure hope it's a 650 anyway. It could have been a 1000 but those aren't slow. Just don't wheelie either one.

Yep ^^^^, that fitty7 hooked up. He was just gone. Love to see that up against the Katoomer (KTM super duke 990). A lot of people think bikes are all that and a box of crackers, but power and puttin it down are two different animals. Like to see them try that against a modded 'busa as well...(Suzuki Hayabusa, build for goin straigt)

That was my thought, any respectable 750/1000 cc wouldn't have been that embarrassing.

From legit tests and other sources a bike modded like my SDR should run 10.3ish in the 1/4 with a 180 lb rider.

Showing my retentiveness here, but note the absence of a clutch master cylinder = 650. Thou's are hydraulic clutch :cheers:

Against a 'real' bike...





....one thing I know from experience, it'll hurt less in the Civic or McLaren :thumbsup:
