Let's not get carried away here. A mildly modded liter bike would by no means be raped by this Viper.

Show me a mildly modded liter bike that traps anywhere near 166mph...this car seem capable of 170+...This 9.0 @ 166mph was just its second shakedown run....It wasnt all it had...Take that wing off and its all she wrote..And its only gonna get worse for the bike after the 1/4 mile...

I am all for fast cars - but understand that the "modified litre bike" category is something such a modded Viper etc can not touch.
Witness the videos floating around the net where even a 1000hp+ Twin Turbo Viper cannot outrun a mildy modded open class bike - and when going up against a very modded open class bike, it looks like the Viper driver hits the brakes the bike pulls away so fast.
It doesn't matter what your trap speed is if the guy in the other lane got to the finish line before you...
Even a 1200hp Viper will about 3lbs for every HP to move - while the open class bike will only have about 2lbs for every HP to move.

RC45 that vid of the "850rwhp"[1000hp crank] Viper beating a stock Busa and loosing barely to a "MILDLY" modded liter bike was very telling..Notice I never mentioned highly modded bikes like those that destroyed that 850hp DLM Viper..Besides the first runs before the car got heat soaked showed it pulling the stock Busa clearly and just loosing to the "MILDLY" modded Gixxer[?] I believe..I have it on my computer have to look again to verify the type bike......
THIS Viper is totally different...It has over "1200RWHP and 1200RWTQ" Biiiiiiig difference...This Viper will give one of those heavily modded Bikes in that vid a "much better" run than that 850rwhp Viper...Ive seen some of those "highly modded" street litre bikes trap in the low 160mph to 180mph...This Viper is right in there with some of them...Will it beat all of the modded bikes? Of course not...But as you get closer to 200mph the car will gain fast on some of those highly modded bikes...Again I said "Show me a "MILDLY" modded liter bike that traps in the 160mph" let along near 170mph like this Viper can....Everyone gets so defensive when saying a car can beat a moded bike...A mildly modded liter bike aint trapping near 170mph..Fact..So my statement is accurate RC45....I await your rebuttal

You are kidding me right? Do you know what it takes to run 166mph in the "1/4"....If anything Im astounded as to how fast it is...Vipers dont have the best aero and that big ass wing is slowing it down believe me...To put it in perspective....This Viper would obliterate, destroy, emaciate, pulverize assrape any stock to mildly modded liter bike...lets not forget it trapped 9.0 flat..This is an 8 second capable full streetcar...Let it sink in and you will understand 8)
|
what do you consider lightly modded?I love it when people compare a 11,000$ bike to a car that costs +100,000$ do the same thing to the bike as you did to the car....bye bye car.
