You wanna have a look on you tube mate, many really hot bikes being done by cars!
One vid of a skyline destroying a veyron too.
Another of a supra beating an r1 on the 1/4 mile.
Bikes are good out of the box performance, but won't beat a heavily modded car, unless modded too.

In a straight line cars have 4 wheels bigger engines and engineering so thats obvious.But bikes on any normal road and it's a non contest bikes can break later go round corners faster and accelerate quicker also its so much easier to nip in and out traffic.I've seen many vids on youtube and 9/10 times the cars are nitro chipped and superchrged to hell,I've never seen any of thoses cars on the roads.
also Aprilia 125's are great bikes they handle just like a 6-700's do

There s a lot of cars on the road like that, a mate of mine had a skyline r32 gtr that he put an rb30 lump in, uprated turbos all the good stuff, was running 490 at the wheels on a safe map, full power there's not a lot on the road that keeps up.
Hell I raced an older 600 in my white scooby, he pulled on me for a bit, but couldn't lose me, and my car was only running 310 bhp.
A modded car will beat a standard bike, mods dependant tho.
I know my car won't beat an r6 or a zx6 now.

Nothing wrong with it at all mate. In the 70's!
I must admit though, brown isn't really a good car color, bit like the old puke green ones too.

black cars do it for me, i think i might be making a mistake tho as just up the road from me is a pretty much abandoned 300zx twin turbo thats been sat for 6 months, owner cant afford to pay insurance etc as its import too so im deciding if its a good idea to get it as project..... its running 342 bhp!!!!!

I currently drive a black Pashley Princess Sovereign:

One of my favourite things about living in this country is that I am not required to drive because I live in a city. I love driving, but am overly susceptible to road rage , so I'm a lot less stressed out since relocating from the States

OOOHHH Mike, your drive looks like ours! We've got between us: A red MR2 T bar turbo with horribly hard suspension(sound familiar?), a Celica GT4, a modified MX5 (Eunos) S Spec all Japenese imports,(mine's the hairdresser's car). For our day jobs Danny's got a Mitsubishi L200 Animal and (don't laugh) I've got a cute little Aygo.

All apart from from my cars (MX5 and Aygo) are going up for sale within the next month as the OH is starting his own business and can't afford to keep them all. Although he is insistent on replacing them with a Supra.
