With both riders being good it comes down to the bike

As you can see the r1 is no slouch nearly dragging knee at first

See below

Oh I’m well aware of this factor, 'tards are lighter and more nimble with the better powerband for sub 100 speeds. They can also go much lower and be stable. In the twisties they are simply faster, but the super sports nearly take the paint off them as they pass on the straights.

Crazyz250 and I used to shit all over sportbikes in da turnz. Real talk.

They then would attempt to pass on the straights, where I then resorted to kicking and pressing their kill switches in order to keep them back. :rofl

the 400-450cc motards are just a street legal dirtbike.

Dirtbikes are made to accelerate fast out of sharp turns, straight aways etc…

now put it on a tight paved coarse with road tires and 0-80+ they will be hard to beat.

I loved my KTM 625.

from a dig I could keep next to a r6 until about 100. just kept bangin gears, and he shifted, once. lol

I rode up around the lake with a buddy with about 4 years on a bike more than I and kept having to slow down to let him catch up. It would stick to the ground, more than I had balls… I love watching sport bikes go past me the other way as i am leaned in deep and they are like WTF is that dirt bike doing! It also had a lot of grunt being a 625, to pull out of a corner just as hard as a sport bike, if not harder.

My uncle has ridden hundreds of bikes, and has been for 30 years. He sold me the KTM because he said it was going to get him in trouble. He said he could push it on that bike and it would laugh at him… that says alot for the machine.
