International
For the first time you can see video evidence of how wild Kawasaki's new ZX-10R is flat out.
Watch the new Kawasaki rev out in top gear as it bounces of its speed limiter and check out how much the bars move as the bike twitches over the bumpy test track.
Then watch as it takes on Yamaha's R1, which comes out on top in a simple flat out run.
You can read the full test of all this year's 1000cc superbikes in the February 6 edition of MCN.
sure did, look at the statistical data between the two bikes, the zx10-r has more power was fastest to top end and also has the fastest standing mile. Nothing against the r1 its simply outdated compared to the new zx10r. Most sources will say the yamaha is easier to ride smoother and has better brakes, but if your talking straight line speed and radical power you are wrong. The biggest complaint with the r1 compared to the newest bikes is that it lacks the torque and hp to keep up.

By yoshkiller [Affiliate User] 1222394042 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveI am going to have to agree with roomulus. By the numbers the zx10 did 0-180mph in 17.21s where as the r1 did it 21.07. almost 4 seconds is a very significant difference. it was actually a second faster than a busa and almost 3 seconds faster than a zx-14. It's a fact that zx10 will destroy any stock bike in a straight line.
By houseoutlaw [Affiliate User] 1222393465 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removei hope that you are not serious. you can have your opinion on which bike you like the best, thats fine, but there is no way any stock yamaha can would come close to the new zx10r. I ride cbr and am loyal to it, but i know that if a zx10r rolled up on me i just wouldn't have a chance. The proof is in the numbers, kawasaki owns in straightline speed.
By Roomulus [Affiliate User] 1222393080 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveYour right, cycle world magazine tested all the '08s. The honda had the fastest track time while the kawasaki had the highest top end, only the gsxr1000 rivaled the top end of the zx10r. Yamaha was in the back of the pack in most tests. No one had anything good to say about the "outdated" r1 except that it had decent brakes. The new zx10 destroyed everything in pure acceleration trials. Sick fast.
