The point is you got lucky. The numbers are not in your favor. Anyone who thinks they are is not the brightest bulb.turbo94gt said:Sorry if i came off a little defensive, but i am just trying to point out that anything can happen on the street.

Ride it once. It's nuts. We had a used one at the dealership and it's the most insane bike ever.DBK said:Well, anything that can turn 142 on a runway in the 1/4 is fast as balls. I read a comparo between the MV and ZX-10R and they were pretty comparable speedwise. The ZX-10 is obviously more of the wildman though...

kneedragger said:Gearing, aerodynamics, powerband. The Ninja also has Ram-Air, which accounts for more horse @ speed, which the dyno cannot record.
It's faster than the MV. The MV is not a quick bike. It's not meant to be. I gaurantee that bike makes over 124 at the wheel. Even at that, it would still have the power to weight ratio to eat you.

ZX10 = 10.04 at 144
agusta MV = 10.18 at 142
gsxr 1000 = 10.03 at 144

We both hit it and I made him look like he stood on the brakes. I have not raced anything other than a 600, but I think from the distance I put on him, I should be able to beat if not be side by side with a 750cc. ZX10/12 R1 954RR's now those are all different stories, I don't think I would win but I don't think they would run all over me. ALL bikes hit a brick wall sometime above 120+, esp for the 600cc. The higher the Litre Bike the higher the MPH before they aerodynamics effect them, but it will play a role on how fast you go. They are going to keep pulling, and fast but no where as fast as 1st to 2nd to 3rd.
Now this isnt about me, but just trying to shead some light on the fact its not hard to walk on a bike. If anyone has a 600/750 even a 1000cc I wouldn't mind running. We could tape to for a educational video. Before you even think about calling BS on my car, lets just say its more than 650RWHP.
