sounds about right your bike will have a quicker punch then rev out quicker .
mind if your both in 4th your 750 will be reving higher so will pick up quicker.

 :iamwithstupid:

Andy and I did something similar but his 10r vs my gixxer thou - I got away quicker as he was trying to keep the front end on the deck  [whistle]

no cos the rear brake would slow me down, I'm not talented anough to balance that against upward lift without slowing   :dontknow:

they are slightly better riders than me, a bit more weight forward and I'm sorted and softer at the rear and Dave's in big trouble muuuuuuhahahhahahahahahahaha  [whistle]

How do you think Stalker gets such good starts? It works - well, on the playstation, anyway.... But seriously though, it does work - it's funny this came up coz it's something that I was experimenting with for the 1st time this last week and it definitely helps.
