Fastest straight line motorcyle?

I dont know anything about motorcycles, and i want to know which are the fastest motorcylcles that one can buy at dealerships, 0-60 mph and 1/4 mile.

Thanks.

Re: Fastest straight line motorcyle?

When it comes to sport bikes, the major limiting factor is the rider.

I have a 2001 GSXR 1000 with minimal mods, and I can consistantly run high 10's in the quarter mile. On the same track, there are guys on Hyabusas and ZX-12's that cant do any better than mid 11's. The big bore bikes should do better, but the riders cant make them run.

Re: Fastest straight line motorcyle?

Well the 2004 line just hit and there are some very potent bikes out now. I would have to say that busas are NO longer king of the road. The new ZX10r and the new R1 are really close in comparison. Quarter times....

ZX10r - 9.92
R1 - 9.93

As far as 0-60 im not sure, havent seen anything about that.

Re: Fastest straight line motorcyle?

0-60 are too short, most of them are 3 sec ish. All depends on rider.

its insignificant measurement in my opinion.

the fastest

all the top companys have pus a limit on top speed and even though the zx10 gsxr 10000 r 1 are fast the zx12 is the only one that they took to the limit at 187 mph and the older busas would go around 198 or even 200+ and old i mean 2000 2001 2002but they do not handel good

Re: Fastest straight line motorcyle?

1999 and 2000 are the unrestricted busas. But what you failed to mention is how easy it is to get rid of this limiter.

Re: Fastest straight line motorcyle?

if your looking for a strictly drag bike, or a straightline bike then in my opinion the busa is the best way to go (99&00) they are the most stable of anything being made currently. i've had mine up to 198 (speedo corrected) and i never felt like i was in danger at any point. if your looking for a road race bike or something on that order then the busa is not the bike for you. but as far as the 1/4 goes, if you learn how to ride it correctly and master launching/shifting it, it cant be beat.

Re: Fastest straight line motorcyle?

OK EG and Black I have to a few things Number one the ZX10 would not test against the busa it tested on other 1 liters so before KAW can boost to being the fastest please test against the fastest (all around) I agree 0-60 the ZX10 is quicker then the BUSA but a liter motor in the 600 frame is a hell sight lighter. As for the new BUSA not being fast I disagree I am riding a 2004 that is very fast (mod to take rev limiter away work wonders. I have a HD a Buell and a BUSA so I can kick back,ride the black hills dragging some knee. or ride as fast as I want and have the best of all worlds. By the way for under 10 grand the Busa is a hell of a buy.
