So let me understand ???? The busa accelarates bette than gen 2 ?????
Yes cuz 2 gen is like a big heavy pig on two wheels....with poor weight to power performance...

And a good bit of that can be attributed to the Busa's sculpted aerodynamics I suspect. No matter how much HP you have to get to the really fast speeds you'll need a aerodynamic setup, considering stock bikes that is.A busa DOES NOT accelerate better than the GenII in the first few gears, especially in lower RPMS, I have ridden a couple 2008 Busa, and in lower rpm, lower gears, their is NO comparison what so ever. after about 120-130 then the Suzuki comes alive for sure.
...and areodynamincs of v-max is a like a school bus which we loves for sure LOLAnd a good bit of that can be attributed to the Busa's sculpted aerodynamics I suspect. No matter how much HP you have to get to the really fast speeds you'll need a aerodynamic setup, considering stock bikes that is.
I will not agree.A busa DOES NOT accelerate better than the GenII in the first few gears, especially in lower RPMS, I have ridden a couple 2008 Busa, and in lower rpm, lower gears, their is NO comparison what so ever. after about 120-130 then the Suzuki comes alive for sure.
I have been on a lot of bikes, Many Many way Faster than the Busa and the Vmax (Considering stock or near stock) , So with respect I know what I am talking about. It is not quicker in the context I mention....
I also have been on many bikes which is not an argument at all my friend.
Quater mile times are telling me that im right btw...
A nice, real world example is that if a sedan needs 75hp to do 100mph, it needs 300hp to do 150mph, and 600hp to do 200mph.Like the gen 1 the gen 2 is, for all intensive purposes, a stoplight-to-stoplight king. It's heavy and (still) has aerodynamics of an elephant with gobs of torque.
A 90hp compact can push 110mph or so
A 250hp sedan can do 150mph
A 1000hp Veryon can do 250mph
IIRC the formula for drag is -.5p*v^3*A*C
p is density (1.2 kg/m^3)
v is velocity (in m/s)
A is area exposed (m^2)
C is the drag coeff (.9 is close for a lot of motorcycles....a prius is like .25 or something)
I might have messed up the units, I did shitty in fluids class.
If you can figure out the frontal area of your bike you could calculate the drag wind puts on it.
Doubling speed quadruples drag. Since the vehicle is now doing 4x as much work in 1/2 the time, 8x more energy is required. Why a huge increase in power only results in a tiny increase in top speed.
