The average decent rider is not jumping on either 1 of those bikes & putting up anywhere close 2 that kinda number. Those are truly professional riders. There skills alone are worth 4-5 tenths of a second. There is a video on KZitem where Jeremy Teasley rides a BMW & beats a ZX14, then gets on the same ZX14 he had just beaten & beats the BMW.

If the track or measure street race was a few hundred ft. longer they would have caught me but they didn't, ha, ha, ha! Best night was a street race against a guy that had a relatively new blackbird.

We don't know that for sure. Prove it. How do we know you didn't remap the TPS to trick the computer (ECU) into thinking it was wider open? On some bikes there is not much difference between 1/2 throttle and full throttle. I seems most of the power increase is in the first half of the throttle opening. To be a fair test we would need to know a lot more information about those bikes, including rider weight, bike weight, "gearing", any mods, actual TP... and even then there is some doubt. Downvoted for lack of information. Why not just put those on a dyno and show us the HP when you "lock" the TPS at 50%? Better yet, mark the throttle with some whiteout for closed, 1/2, and WFO so we can see you hold it there at 50% throttle on the dyno.

lol this so called test has way to many faults and flaws its not even funny, way off and can't believe anyone is gullible enough to believe the results stated at end. So unscientific its not even funny but is a laugh. weights of riders, bike setups, test has to be done with stock setups to even vaguely accurate. Rider weights have to be damn close. Nobody should be wowing the findings but rather how gullible you were for believing this mockery.

A gen 1 is not a widow maker. That nickname was given to the Kawasaki 750cc triple in the early 70's 1972 Kawasaki H2 750 triple.

@@widowmaker1493 actually, he's right, my brother had one back in the day, which I rode. The real scary part of the H2 750, was that the frame, suspension and brakes were terrible. High speed turns the bike would flex and buck. At speed the front end would come off the ground if you hit bumps. It wasn't much better than butting 75 hp on a bicycle frame. The '91 ZX-11 was also called a widow maker and organ donor, first factory bike to break the 180 mph mark. Point, every generation has their "widow Maker" it's nothing new. I 'm sure if you do enough research you'll find bikes in the 1920's with the same nickname. Ah, get over yourself brah!

Reason why the gen 1 was called the widow make is because of how shitty the brakes were

It was because of the head shake from the lack of a steering damper combined with its light weight anf short length. Hence the 2005 came stock with steering dampers

Yeah no. Mine were fine after many rather quick laps on Phillip Island. It was the head shake in inexperienced hands that give it that nickname.
