A bike can only run nines when you have someone who can launch them. Your average, everyday rider will most likely pull something in the tens, like Mushi when he first took the Goat to the track and ran a 15 something. And I think roll, the magazine article I was reading didn't specify, just said that this guy's Supra was capable of it. I don't ride, so I don't know. I'd like to, but I need a new car first, then apartment, then I can start worrying about bikes.
Guy I used to work with back at the BMW dealership had an R1 with some work done to it (Exhaust, think he said headers, filter, tune) and said that he had pulled pretty good on an I/LTH/E/Tuned C5 Z06, but that a pretty well done FD put the whuping on him real good. Most likely one of the three rotor turbos we got floating around the area. Also said that a last gen Camaro Z28 raped him pretty bad once.

Yeah, but I'm sure it wouldn't be to hard to get going that much faster sans governor. The E60 M5 can do 185/190 stock once you pull the governor.
