[QUOTE="TheFleshRocket, post: 4870291, member: 48535"] One of my buddies has a Triumph Daytona 955. I had just parked my GSX-R1000 for the evening and took my Cobra to our motorcycle club meeting. Afterward, he jokingly said he wanted to race. Earlier, he had topped his bike out at 158mph indicated in fifth gear, with sixth gear still to spare. He didn't think the bike had much left in sixth, so I told him I'd walk him on the top end if we raced. This doesn't really count as a race, but as we made a left turn, with me in front of him, I nailed it in first gear and lit up the rears. I then shifted into second and waited to see what he'd do. He moved into the right lane to pass and I nailed it in second. He didn't gain any ground on me, all the way up to 2nd gear redline. When we stopped a bit later, he sounded impressed. So again, not really a race, but a decent indication of what might have happened in a true side-by-side line-up. [/QUOTE]
