the prob is that UK is not a bike country, because of weather i imagine, so you are imagining lots of things... but ask an Italian, a French, a Spanish, or anyone that really drives bikes all year long, and know them, and they would die laughing reading this !!!

it would take over 1000 bhp to have a little hope in catching a bike (and i mean a 600, not a 1000, would be even worse ) , especially if it's in straight line


quickly summing up : Ducati 996 -> 140 bhp (at WHEEL), 190 kilograms
Cossie -> 400 bhp (not at wheels ), 1390 kilograms.

How come you HOPE catching it ?

Don't get me wrong, i love my stage 3 Escort Cosworth, fookin LOVE it, but this does not allow to have such irrealistic dreams
