with a good rider on the bike, you’d need about 4-500hp to out roll a 600. If you have any less power than that, and you outrolled a 600, then something is wrong with that bike, or that rider. Based mainly on power:weight ratios: a “recent” 600 has about 110hp to the wheels, now figure a 600lb rider/bike. So that’s about 5.5 hp/lb. 1000’s close the gap to about 4 to 4.5hp/lb. Now an average car is what? 3000lb. So to get 5.5hp/lb, you would need about 550hp. Really rough baselines, but I’ve seen many cars that I wouldn’t want to run into on a 600. Less on the litre bike 🙂 Anywhoo, good story. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/whos-bike-did-i-beat-tonight/31391)._
