Yeh does seem slower than expected, most 1 litre bikes will crack off 130mph in 9 or even sub 9 secs & even the old spec 2000Fx CBR600 with its tested 91bhp & 41Lbft is still a highly respectable 13 secs to 130mph & back in 2000 was bit lighter & more power thna CBR.

Mind you lots of wind at 130-150 but over 15 secs worth?


Edited to add-

Actualy this is a bit odd, just picked up a bike mag (Bike) & it had R6 (2000) @ 17 secs to 130 & the FX CBR600 also at 17 secs, yet its the same mag that tested it the same bike in the previous months issue at 13 secs to 130? very very windy test 2nd time around ??

Bizarre?
