Default Raptor Vs R6

they allow crochrockets to ride on your local track?.. that would be hoot to see.. how do they jump?... anyway ive owned a few differnt street bikes... an R6 is descent.. you wouldnt have a chance in hell.. maybe youd get him the first 15 feet due to more rubber to pavement... but after that he'd be outta sight before you were shifting into third

R6, around 105hp. Raptor 35. R1, around 140.

If you want a race, go line up with a 25 year old dual sport 100 or something similar

If you don't get the holeshot you are screwed!!! If you do, it could possibly be a close race in the end, but he will be accelerating 3 times faster than you. Good luck, now that I think about it you're probably going to get smoked.

I own a motorcycle and a Raptor. I have a 1993 Yamaha FZR600R. I now from riding both that the FZR would kill the Raptor. It has nothing to do with how many tires you have on the ground. The acceleration of a motorcycle compared to a Raptor is huge. Your talking about 2 very different machines. Once a motorcycle hits it power band it's gone. I race my bike all the time in the power band and it doesn't compare at all to what the Raptor can do. Just some thought........maybe some more motorcycle riders can voice there opinion.
