    Many car guys think street legal supercars will always run down bikes on the top end because of a better cd. While true for stock bikes, turbo big bore super bikes are different. I know cars will ultimately be quicker and faster than bikes( drag racing, F1, Bonneville salt flats).Better grip and more power etc.

    running someone down in the topend its about absolute power and drag, weight wont really affect top speed to any great degree in comparison to drag and power to weight tells you nothing.

    A 1000hp 3500lb e90 m3 will beat a 500hp 1750lb e90 m3 at high speed every day of the week but at low speed they will be much the same

    There are lots of guys doing it. Drag racers and standing mile racers along with Bonneville Salt Flat racers. I have seen 350 rwhp turbo busas for 15 grand used for sale on the forums. Very cheap speed. I have a 2000 ZX12R. Plenty fast for my riding abilities. Too much really. But there are people that can ride. Have you seen the Ghostrider videos. Guy is nuts. 180+ mph wheelies.

    You're looking at ~$20k.

    Any idea of what kind of power it will make? Would that include any internal upgrades needed along with SMG mods to handle the power? Thanks!

    I mean I can give you a ballpark of 7XX on stock internals.

    Internal upgrades are separate. A built motor, a properly built motor, isn't cheap.

    The SMG is not too difficult to upgrade. It just depends how far you want to push it. Keep the boost mild and you will be fine. Get addicted and be ready to open up your wallet and then some.
