Just to put it in perspective, my K5 GSXR600 will do 11.2 quarters. The thou's will do it in about 10.5 seconds.
So what power cossie would you need to get quarters like that then?

the bloke on the tannoy said 600 bhp..i recon he was exaggerating..maybe be 400bhp
that was a fun day with the bikes....first victim of the day was someone on some 600 thing .. i thought his chain had snapped
LOL@ 1 wheel drive
was all good fun back then

Have raced quite a few other bikes and tbh 600's not really bothered by..
1k's on the other hand
And going back to the GSXR 1K my mate had 06 plate OMFG With out a doubt the quickest thing i have or ever will go on in my entire life i recon.
Just wants to wheelie in any gear

estimates were from 600 to 675bhp calculated from the weight of the lardy fecker and the times/terminals it was doing
0-60 was 2.94 sec with a 500 touring car spec motor with little nos jets which were supposed to give 25bhp so prob around 550bhp it did 10.8@136mph at brunters with that setup

which R1 you looking for?
i rode my friends 99 R1 which i think is the best looking bike, and have to admit i was scared a little coz i felt the back was a bit scittish was very scared as i only ridden 600's prior to that.

Id go for a 600 first. get used to that, then have a go on a few thou's or maybe a gixer 750 and see what you think.

Happily retired
Can a Cossie outrun an R1- not unless you have massive bhp
Lots of talk on this Topic so now lets quote a few facts.
Got the R1 times from the web.
R1 ---------------------------------800bhp Cosworth
0-60 3.0 ------------------------------------ 0-60 4.1
0-100 6.0 ---------------------------------- 0-100 6.9
0-150 11.6 ---------------------------------- 0-150 12.7
60-100 3.0 ---------------------------------- 60-100 2.8
100-150 5.6 --------------------------------- 100-150 5.8
60-150 8.6 ----------------------------------- 60-150 8.6
Must have a go in a Stage 3 Cossie that can out acclerate that, mine does well evens from 60-150. So you will need 800bhp in a rwd Cossie to run with the R1 , mind you my 0-180 is many seconds quicker than the R1 & I cant find its 0-200 anywhere .
ps. Modify the R1 & it will piss over mine as well, they are fast lads.

I once saw a short and skinny chap jump on an r6 (100bhp) and run a 9.9 second quarter.
Thats only on a six. Not that many cossies that can do that time.... even with a midget driving!

accelerations is unreal, withing seconds we were at 150mph on the r1. i was on the back of the bike and even 2up the bikes front wheel was lifting in 2nd gear!
i definently would suggest not going for an r1 as a first bike.
look at something like an r6 or a ninja!

Go for a one year old R6 first (Gone through it's worst depreciation) and get used to it......sell it after a year without loosing too much dosh, then check out the 1000's.

There's a reason why you dont give a 17yr old who has just passed their driving test a rwd 500bhp cossie
I think that most people who dont ride also dont have a CLUE how fast bikes really are and the rush from riding them! At times cracking the throttle can feel well scary and make the adrenaline flow
I've ridden for 4 years and have a gixxer 750 and all i know is that i dont think i could handle an R1 properly to use to itf full potential. Now no offence but if i cant do it then a new rider certainly cant
Call me if you like but these are facts from someone who has both car and bike

I think too many people under estimate how fast an R1 or any sports litre bike really is. My first bike was an R1 and believe me it is fcuking FAST. The sensation you get over 9000rpm with the wheel up off the ground with your helmet pinning against your nose is UNREAL!
Currently talking to someone regarding turbo-charging it now, should be lots of fun!
