ok if you listen to anyone out there listen to me. I race motocross and ride a crf 250r. The bike is super quick but in a quarter mile it wouldnt come close to my f3. My crf would top out probably are 75 mph in no time. If you were racing 0-60 it would be close but a quarter mile he wouldnt stand a chance. You would be doing 120 at the finish and he would be doing 80. I would say how about $1000. Then I would race 0-60 with my crf 250r vs his 450. And make another $1000. Go for it and dont forget to rev it to the moon and drop the clutch.

you said he has been riding for awhile what about you I would assume he is going to have to change gears a few more times then you assuming you have stock gearing you might have one or two shifts and assuming you don't need you're clutch to shift that right there should give you a big advantage assuming he has race gearing means it's probably shorter gearing wich means more shifting but if he knows how to drag and you don't hard to say I smoked a guy with a R1 last year but he couldn't drive at all

i own a CR250 and a CRF450 punched out to a 480cc which i race supermoto with...ive also ran jeff wards the US CHAMPION supermoto bike 3x, mine will smoke it in a straight line...ive got a bottle of n20 and i promise i could put a fight to ur 600RR my roomate has a 04 gsxr600 and i can smoke him for a few gears off a stoplight no prob but we've never ran longer, in a quarter mile i'd say you'll have him but only at the end....and you better stay on the hammer because hes gonna smoke you off the line if he knows what hes doing. ive been riding pro class motocross for a number of years.... if your 16 you dont have those years behind you, A...be careful ....B dont get caught doing this race! C....dont loop your bike over when u get frustrated watching him pull you off the line, cause im sure he will. It sounds like you shouldn't have made this bet.... usually someone who races supermoto has experience enough to have already done enough motox to try somethin new...the same kinda person that will make use of every single bit of power a bike has to offer....if i was you i'd back out....best of luck

If you have any skill at riding a bike desent then you will have no problem. The 450 will top out so damn fast he doesn't stand a chance. Like they said he will kick you as$ on the line but doesn't stand a chance in the quarter mile. My friend has a 450 and if is built up a little bit. He rides 250A class and I have a 600F3. I am a 125B rider. We have dragged them down the road a couple times. By the time I hit about 60mph and shifted to second I was with him. By the time I was at the end of a quarter mile he was not even close. Even if his gearing was different and he had street tires on he still would have no chance. A quarter mile is very long. To long for any motocross bike.

Dude, your 16, ON a 600RR.... You can't fold to peer pressure. This bike CAN kill you very easily if you havent had much time on it..... SO I suggest save it for another day, ITS not woth $500, Your LIFE that is... GET more time, more out of life before you get stupid on a HELL of a machine! Just some advice from an OLDER guy!
BEE safe!
