More BS
He said 05 R1, which puts out around 180 HP. And this ZX10 you speak of only marginally out powered the R1 and GSXR by a few HP, and it wasnt the lightest either. All the 1000's are so close in performance that it comes down to the rider EVERYTIME.
And lets not forget that the GSXR has been dominating the AMA superbike series since before 98'.
And as far as a ZX12 beating a Busa, he simply out rode him. Show me a sanctioned testing of the 2 bikes in stock trim where the ZX12 won. Besides, both are only good for dragging and topspeed runs. They're jokes on a road course.
And the funniest yet, beating a Busa with a ZX9. Again you simply out rode him. The current 600's are faster than the ZX9's were. They weren't very fast in sportbike standards, But thanks to ignorance everyone thinks "Ninjas" were the fastest things on 2 wheels.
A 98' ZX9 only puts out 125 HP , 67 lb/ft (thats off the motor too), and had a wet weight of 477 lbs

. The later years never got much better.
Hell, I beat a ZX9 with similar mods on my TL1000S.
If you do race the R6, I'll be sure and bring my GSXR750 that puts down 130
Rwhp and has a personally weighed weight of 400 lbs even with a 1/2 tank. Hell, I'll bring my TL to just to make it even.

In 2004, a ZX6 (the 636 one) and a R6 were slammed and drag raced by Ricky Gadsen. Completely stock other than lowered dogbones and straps on the front. He hit a 9 second pass on the R1 and numerous sub sub 10's on both. The ZX9 simply cannot compete with that.
Dude, if you think the ZX9 is better than all these other bikes you mentioned, then you are a Kawasaki bandwagoneer. Look at the numbers, and the fact that Kawasaki doesn't have a decent presence in any form of racing that I know of. Of course, I think that may change in the future with the reinvention of the ninjas in the early 2000's. They are serious competitors now, but still have to establish a new foothold in R&D. Theres nothing wrong with likeing what you like, but don't try to make it out to be more than it really is.
