ok so i need to hear what you guys think. My friend and i both have 06 cbr 600rr's. i have power commander with proff tune and a hot bodies shorty , my friend has a two brothers. last year we raced all the time and i spanked the hell out of him. so this year he is doig a two up in rear and -1 in front. im doing a k@n filter V stacks and another proff dyno. WHO WILL WIN? I know a lot of this come s down to rider skill. both of us are pretty much same skill level. i weigh 180 he is 210- 220. so let me know what you guys think.

 

Not everything I say is always correct, but one of the reason you are always beating him(spanking as u call it) is because he is 30-40lbs heavier than you. Weight plays a BIG part in all this.

 

+1

For every 7 pounds he is over you equals 1hp lost at the wheel.

 

Everbody allways asks my buddy to run their bikes at the track because he allways gets better ets. He is a good driver but he also weights 120 pounds. Alot of the faster et comes from being lighter. Johnny

 

ive never heard this before, im already about as skinny as i can get @ 6' 165lbs, but i think im going to start throwing up my meals, and take up smoking. ill stop when i reach about 90lbs...thats OVER 10hp WOOT WOOT

 

An easy simple solution to solve if it's the driver weight, the bike or what!!! Just simple race again by EXCHANGING bikes, you drive his and he will drive your bike.

 

that way the suspension will be jacked up for each rider, possibly leading to a crash? good idea

 

the sprocket set might be his only way to beat you, it does make a difference

 

i have heard the sprocket will really give you a great amount of torque . im just hoping to catch him on the top end. we ride with a gixxer 600 08 that has the sprocket he is doing. he can beat the gixer and he only has exhaust so im thinking with my pc dyno tune and v stacks filter and exhaust i should take him

 

I mean are you guys talking racing in a straight line? or through turns?
