So far, comments and repo I've received are 4/0 for Socal as dipshit scumbag asshole irritating twat of the decade. OhNO running a fairly close second, but Socal looks like a lock.
MotorCyclist just did a 1000 vs 600 comparo, to see which one really was the best.
Two editors each raced each bike around the West Loop at Buttonwillow raceway. The GSX-R1000, and the ZX-6R (636).
One editor was faster on the 600, and the other was faster on the 1000. But the difference in each was under 2 seconds..
They also measured Tommy Hayden's 6RR (true 600), against Aaron Yates GSX-R 1000, raced on California Speedway. They measured lap times, and corner speeds..
There are 21 turns on this track, and the 6RR was faster in EVERY SINGLE corner by 2 to 7 MPH.. Even though it had a 90 HP disadvantage, it was faster in the corners than the GSX-R1000.
But the GSX-R made up the difference on the back straight, where it was 34 MPH faster than the 6R.
End result was the GSX-R1000 was the overall winner, because of the back straight speeds it could achieve, but the ZX-6RR is much faster in the corners..
So, 1000cc vs 600cc.. Do you want to go in a straight line, or do you like corners..???
