What do you lot make of this...

He thinks it will take an R6 to 120mph and run a 13 sec quarter.
I'm sure an R6 would piss a 13 sec quarter anyway?

Surely a scootay wouldnt do a 600cc Sports bike to 120. Suuuurely not.

[Ste]

R6 should do about an 11 second quarter doing about 120.

Like most ped bois, he is talking shit. So I've sent him a load of questions to see what amusing bullshit he comes back with.

[KevTM]

"Not for the faint hearted" - that's how they all start, crap ped ads, small trail bike ads, chinese quad ads, etc etc.. you just know they're talking mince.

Too many idiot ped boys in this country!


My god! it needs a wheelie bar wheelie bin would be more fitting I think.

[Ste]

as i sed in the add iam trying 2 get all paper work and power prints off old owner , i thinks it was 45bhp and yes 6 times i hammerd my mates r6 to just over 120mph but iam sorry i cant sell it to 16 year old lad its 2 stupid it wont stay down it will lift at 120 with a blip ov the rev thanks

[KevTM]

I really don't know whether to laugh or cry anymore. I really don't.

[MaybeGuy]

i wonder what performance gains that gold plate, sorry... painted head gives.

Probably would need a wheelie bar,i've rode a 172 big bore typhoon that would gladly flip over backwards if you gave it full throttle,used to quite like dragsters,never owned a ped though.

[That_Hornet]

biggest waste of money ive seen..........

[KevTM]

I just find the idea of a scooter with a wheelie bar funny

Should ask him what its top speed is, he says 120mph, but if the front end lifts with a "blip of the rev" at 120mph then surely it's good for a bit more

[binge]

My thoughts exactly.
Unless he is talking about KPH.


I dont believe for one second it would do an R6.

yes mate for a scooter its stupid , i havent got the wheelie bar any more i like it without but if you wanted to use it on strip you defo need 1 it lifts without trying buts thats y i got it, it runs and rides sweet but its loud & needs tyer sorting iam guna add a little vid clip off it running thanks



Well, at least he agrees that it's stupid.

[KevTM]

tell him you want a video clip of it beating his mates R6, or atleast getting to 120mph, and if it ever gets there, that it should do it in under 13 seconds, and not downhill being pushed by a '98 R1.

[The View Askew]

I have seen very quick Italjets, but that's crap.


I think he means he will be over reading at 120KMph, while the R6 is steaming over 120Mph on the GPS.

Theres a lad who rides a Piaggio Zip up at Ebbsfleet with a 172cc 2t engine stuffed up it.
It is very fast for a scooter, But my pit bike (125 TZR engine) pushes it along without too much trouble.

AFAIK the 180 runners were slower than the 172 big bore (from 125) runners.

[MaybeGuy]

he said if my R6 lost against, he would keep it, but he refused to risk his horrible little ped unfortunatly.

Who the fuck would want to do 120mph on a scootay anyway? I reckon you would be blown off.

Saying that, I always used to look at scooters and be baffled how you corner some without sliding off the seat. 'Fuckin skillz mate' I was once told.

I'll keep meh R6 thanks.

I am not quite sure that all his stats are right, but it is possible to make peds go fast.

I knew this mechanic who works near Heathrow Airport who races sliders and bikes. He did a ped up for some client and it did actually beat a sports 600 to 100mph and could wheelie very easily due to its power to weight ratio.

He said he had much joy in testing it against sports bikes.

Thing is, its always silly when it gets to modification. Its the same with heavily modified cars that can 'take' a 600cc sports and keep up with a thou. If those bikes were modified to the same extent they would still be on top.

Im sure one could modify a bathtub to do a quarter in 10 seconds if they really wanted to.
