Well i'll put it this way. I rode an 04 GSXR-600 (sadly not mine ofcourse) with some other people and two of them had busa's and at 2 am ride some people like to speed. I was able to keep up with the liter bikes and busa's up to about 130mph but after that the power difference really shows. I've talked to Busa riders that would tell me that with an all out straight line race it was like they would slowly pick off all the bikes. First you'de see the the 600's start to fall back at about 120-30 and then the 750's at about 150 and the liter bikes at about 165-70. I also realize that the rider is a huge variable but if you look at 1/4 mile times i usually see the 750's ahead of the liter bikes, and i assume that has to do with wheelie issues .
