The NSR VS NSR

i was sitting at some traffic lights last night when a 2003 identical nsr pulled up next to me, he told me it was fully derestricted with a full arrow race system on it, which when i looked it did appear to be. Any ways the lights turn green i had my revs up to 5k his bike sounded the same and i was a good 3 meters in front of him all the way up to 20mph, i know its not much but my bike is still fully restricted, whats going on here Confused

, i know it wasnt his riding as it happened 2 more times! gave me a good buzz though lol Thumbs Up

Its possible that NSR's with race cans have less torque low down as a trade off for slightly more power at the top end. Not sure tho, my NSR has/had a standard can.

A fully de-restricted NSR has a bigger front sprocket if I remember rightly? slower acceleration.

Did he jet the bike to take the exhaust? All top end power? Was he playing? Or just rubbish at quick getaways?

Are you sure he was actually trying to race you all three times? Confused

That is wierd! Are you sure it was fully derestricted? sounds to me like he just put a performance exhaust on it. A derestricted NSR with an arrows system should produce far more torque all the way through the rev range compared to a restricted NSR. Maybe his clutch was on its way out.

"cant believe you beat me lemme have another go!"
and the very last race after i got away faster he said
"Your bike is derestricted mate trust me" saluted me and rode off lol

Maybe he couldn't use the clutch for shit, cos 5k on an nsr isn't exactly a fast get away.
