SP2 0-60 2.5 sec (unbeatable by Hayabusa)
My buddy's SP2 constanly beats Ducatis, Inline fours (1000cc+) in my area (acceleration)... My buddy changed the compression to (12.8) + few things on the bike. His SP2 goes easy 0-60 2.5 sec....
He beat 4 different Hayabusas (8 times....). We check the acceleration time with police speed/time meter...
So far my buddy's SP2 is unbeatable....(with higher comression and little reduced weight)

Beleive me; RC51 is good...
You only need to make few changes on it...and you are ready to beat all bikes.

That;s why I changed my Kawasaki Ninja 2001 to a SP2....

Now I've tried various combinations on this theme. To get a twin did you disconnect cylinders 1-4 or 2-3 or 1-2 or 3-4? Inquiring minds need to know.
Also did you use the SP2 seat?

The real difference is the SP2 sticker.

Alright,,,,
Stay All Well and Dream about SP2...HA!
Your Cookie Cutter Inline four will always smell the RC51's fume.

I have facts and I can prove the 2.5 sec acceleration with a (little tuned) SP2...
You can call Kanata's ON. OPP ( name Srg.George McDoual)
He was the one who checked the acceleration race with his meter..HA,,,? Now what.....!!!!
He also witnessed the Hayabusa beating (twice) my buddies using his SP2....
Now you all can hug you boyfriends...and wake up...

I doubt your boyfriend's SP2 can stay with my SP1 let alone beat a Hayabusa ridden by Stegen . . .

I assume this is all done with stock gearing too, the RC's were never known for their slightly tallish first gear. A great bike for launching hard.

My Busa does 60' in 1.32 seconds. And prolly well over 60 mph by less than 2 sec
