I would rather ride a honda than anything else. Plus if you were looking for those kind of numbers, hop on a Hayabusa. Those things shouldn't be street legal. I know my 600's fast, but nothing like a 1000rr, but the Busa is a 1300 cc BEAST. To make a long story short, if anyone wanted numbers like that and speed thats almost uncontrolable, hop on a Busa. Stuff now a days is just plain damn scary fast.

All good points. The big "power" bikes are pretty sweet...'busas, etc....but, unfortunately they have turned into such a cult ride that it seems the majority of the guys riding them now have absolutely no idea what the hell they have and further more never have thrown a leg over them.

As I said before, I am a huge Honda fan, and frankly couldn't see myself buying anything else. I guess sometimes you would just like to see the top motorcyle manufactuer in the world step up and say...hey, I am still the boss! Raw horsepower or not you have to ride the bike that feels the best to you personally.

Not saying i`m a racing god or anythin daft but i could tell the difference. The ZX-10R is wilder because of the geometry of the bike.

honestly, i love honda's. Cars n everything. I personally think that they have engineered it to produce more hp. But in order for their engines to last long, which their known to, they turn it down so there's always a leeway for the engine not to get harmed at all. I honestly think that honda holds back on the horsepower for reliability issues.
