Is it just me or does anyone else think 0-60 times are utterly irrelevant for sports bikes (except for shutting car-bores up in the pub)
When you are dealing with between 2 and 3 seconds, it's all down to technique, surely?
anyway the yam is probably a little bit quicker ____________________ "There are some things nobody needs in this world, and a bright-red, hunch-back, warp-speed 900cc cafe racer is one of them - but I want one anyway, and on some days I actually believe I need one. That is why they are dangerous."

The yam is the quicker bike.
What's so amazing about 0-60 times then, you saying that if the Triumph has a quicker 0-60 than the much superior and nicer looking R6, that you'd go for the trumpet just because it gets to 60 faster? Or vice-versa.
Just a silly question to base buying a bike on in my opinion! ____________________ Current Toys: 06 Yamaha WR250F | Nissan 350Z GT | Tech 4 Homes |

Dunno oif the link works but the specs are here:
https://www.motorbikes.be/en/compare/3429/3402/
If you just want a faster 600 go for the R6, most do, then you can sit and pose with the rest of them all parked up in a line looking so incredibly boring.
If you want a bike with some grunt that looks different and is actually nice go for the Daytona (Didn't it win the TT?). ____________________ Back on a Blade. Just feels so right. |

Surely you'd be more interested in the 30-50 or 50-70 times as these are more likely to be of use. 0-60 is only used for tear arsing from the lights to get rid of a Nova or two ( ) where as the other figures are used in daily commuting. ____________________ Too skint to buy a bike  |
