as already said bikes will always be faster than a car due to the weight, bit different on track as they have less grip in the corners but make up for it on the straight
clarkson done a test like that once with a r1 ridden by a british superbike champ against a porche 911 carrera 4 driven by jason plato, the car won round the track

so??? that doesnt deny the fact those accidents happen!! So what if it was you loosing it on a corner, hitting diesel or a car pulling out. Your still dead or seriously injured so the figures still hold true.

Obviously there are tuned Fords that can beat bikes in a straight line, but the difference with a bike is that for Ł6k you can put Ł300k cars to shame.
They are good fun.
i know bikes have come along since then and so have cars but the fact is that at the time the vid was made the r1 was the fastest bike around and being ridden by a british champ against a porche 911 carrera 4 which was not the fastest car at the time and was driven by a touring car driver who was not a british champ at the time
cars will never beat bikes in the least money for max speed stakes

i know how much fun they can be and how dangerous too as i have the scars to prove it, rode moto x from the age of 3 and have a nice 5inch wide round exhaust pipe burn on my leg + many other smaller scars, id hate to ride a bike and have a off on the road, its happened to a few mates and 2 of them were lucky they were not killed

.He was mainly a moto x guy but started riding road bikes when I was young. Him and a few local guys(quite a small community so everyone knows each other) used to go for blasts on a Sunday afternoon etc. One day 3 of them were out and the two at the front noticed the one at the back wasn't with them anymore. Turns out he had been killed a few miles back when overtaking a car that was turning right. Totally destroyed my neighbor and he's not been interested in road bikes since. The guy that died was only in his late 20s.
Offroad bikes defo the way to go for fun. I mean you can break bones etc, but the chances of being killed are much slimmer. usually on the road it's the cars that cause accidents. Saying that, a car driver could look in their mirror and see nothing, and then the next second there's a bike flying by! Lol
Surely if the bikers know about "idiotic" drivers (Which you hear no end of bikers banging on about) the would take into account the hazard and not ride at triple the speed limit everywhere?
like a friend of mine that nearly got knocked off when "i was doing 140 down the m1 when some stupid c*nt decided to change lanes!"....whos really at fault there?

It is all relative, a car is a LOT easier to drive fast than it is to ride a bike fast.... Just get both, and enjoy each for what it is, I love my Cossies and I love my Ducati, both just fucking great FUN!!
