All,

I recently just sold my relatively stock 1992 CBR900RR, the king of the sports bikes from 91-96 until the R1 turned up. I had it for about 5 years and only just sold. I have run the bike using a G-Tech against my 97 GTR. There was no competition in a straight line.

CBR 0-100 3.4sec. GTR 0-100 4.5sec

CBR 1/4 11.2 sec. GTR 1/4 12.2sec (With my new GTRS turbo's 11.8)

Although I’m not the best bike rider in the world, I have found the car to be quicker around the Track. Eastern Creek; CBR 1.55Min, GTR 1.52Min.

In my mind nothing rips your head off like a 100+kW/190KG vehicle.

Now for the big one!

Bike just sold it for $5k

GTR $30-$50K

Bang for buck, modified not modified, bikes are still king!

But a car will keep you alive longer!

The reason why cars are quicker around the track is because they corner better. If bikes weren't so quick to blast out of corners into the straights then the cars would be faster still.

A bike will also get you to your destination quicker, without having to break the speed limit. There's nothing quite like effortlessly dodging traffic on a bike. And you also get to legally use the transit lane :)

In my opinion, own one of each!

who cares anyway. Busas are ugly and are no longer the fastest bike in the world. I think the 1100rr is now? Well its definately not the busa.

What is the 1100rr??? If u r talking top speed I think the ZX12 is the quickest. As for 1/4 mile times I would like to see the new 1000 fireblade (coming out in a couple months). I think that will have to be the quickest of the superbikes. The GSXR1000 is probably the quickest at the moment.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
