Modified C6 RS6 though would leave most standard bikes for dead pretty much anywhere imo.

Re: C63 vs Yamaha R1
As most have said - above about 150mph it's size of biker testicles that dictates what happens really. A b7 RS4 should have a 600 or a 750 carb'd bake up top, but litre bikes are another contest. My last bike was a K1 GSXR 750 and it felt insanely fast at the time - but what it can't do is sit at 160mph with one hand on the wheel (bars) sipping a bottle of drink whilst wondering if you need to adjust your heated seat down a bit because you're quite warm enough...

Re: C63 vs Yamaha R1
Tickets. ... Tickets. .... Anyone want tickets
Re: C63 vs Yamaha R1
A speedy lap of the M25 will certainly bring tickets!
Re: C63 vs Yamaha R1
I can't imagine the adrenaline you must get when your hitting speeds like that on a superbike, but as most of you guys have said its about how big the drivers testis are. When your doing over 150mph on one of those it must feel like a lot more, it makes sense the driver would back off a bit, still that C63 looks bloody fast! Superbikes vs fast cars is always an interesting one. At the end of the day though Its nice to be able to do 150+ in comfort while listening to Bob Marley on my Bose premium sound system

117miles. You'd need to chose the right bike for it then... My cbr6 wouldn't make that at those speeds without needing a drink...

Re: C63 vs Yamaha R1
One stop. Clackets probably. A coffee too. I'd pull in any time you lost whilst waiting in your holding pattern at anyone of the temporary car parks that is Heathrow...

Either one would do...

Re: C63 vs Yamaha R1
R1 would never make it in one trip - best I get out of one tank is 110 and that's being sensible...Shinobi675 wrote:117miles. You'd need to chose the right bike for it then... My cbr6 wouldn't make that at those speeds without needing a drink...
