My son (20 years old)on my CBR1000rr and my brother on the 81' GL1000 Interstate I bought and restored and a couple of my son's buddies went for a ride:rider:
After being able to pass the ''BUDDIES" they wanted to see me and my son race
the bandit and the CBR--OK:trust: Both bikes are mine and my son can and
does ride very well so lets go out to the bottoms and do a little ''draggin''
No doubt the CBR will outrun the Bandit--But short runs the torque wins.
When he does pass me he is going at least 30/40 MPH faster
But the young boys say''RUN THE CRUISER''
Don't run a CBR1000 any farther than I did;-)
Just had to show this 1st video:clap:

Great vids Robert! :motorsmile:
I love the comment of the camera man on your 1250 fly by vid.
Your 1250 sounds wicked! :beers:

Looks like a fun day! They got my blood pumping. (Is it spring yet????????)

video of the ride.Glad you guys could enjoy the vids if its to
cold to ride where you are at.

We're gonna see the 50s this weekend too. We've had snow several times this week though... CRAP all over the roads. I think I'll leave the Kawi in the garage....

This was great....My buddy from another forum lives in
north Ar. We had never met face to face.
Well we finally met at 1000' dragstrip at centerville...
He rides an 07 Honda 919....He came down to spank
the Bandit....I couldn't imagine the beating i would
have got from the 919 crew for losing....DIDN'T HAPPEN

saw the vid and was to fast for me to see even when I tried to stop the action. Did a silver Bandit beat another bike? Perhaps you could give us the stats, time, speed, bike types, winner.
maybe I'm a little slow .....
-
Which are you talkin about....(reply date)
no silver bandits in vids :beers:
-
never saw these before... I figured the 919 didn't stand a chance... and I KNEW you'd be close to the 1000RR but that went better than I thought. What other mods have you done to the bike?

Opened up stock header
Secondaries gone
CR9EK plugs(.040 longer)
Pink wire to gps (broke by me)
Richen up throttle bodies
Sync at 4000 rpm(Makes it butter smooth)
K&N pods
It's diet got it to 500 lbs :beers:
Pair blocked/solenoid gone
Emissions gone
Possibly missed something
-
I still don't know who won by looking at the vids.
:duh:

ok Ill give you what I'm seeing..
from the first post... in the 1st race vid. The bandit is on the far side, it's black like the one in the picture further down. He wheelies in the first two gears, is still in the lead once even with the camera but the CBR eventually (and lets face it inevitably) pulls away.
Second race vid- the bandit is now closer and the CBR is on the outside; same thing, the bandit is ahead when the cross the cameras position.
In the more recent post, evidently it's the 1250 against a 919 in the first daylight vid the bandit is in the closer lane, the night time one it's in the far lane. Its easy to tell which one the bandit is...if flies by and well behind it the 919 comes by...

That should cover it :thanks:

I'd say considering the specs of both machines (the 919 and the Bandit), the better rider won. On paper it's basically a coin flip, with maybe a tiny edge to the Bandit.
