I do like the ZX/YZF front ends though, just I do not really care for the rest of the GSXR lineup. There is a reason the hayabusa is still faster on topend than the gixxer 1000..while also sporting less HP

I am talking about both bikes being unrestricted of course. Although during a rollon if the Gixxer guy is on his game, he willpull on the busa..because in actuality they are pretty close.
top end hands down... the key to the busa's aero is the fact that you(the rider) can fit nicely tucked down behind that big areodynamic front....on my 1k on the track at 140mph my suit balloons up like a parachute, because of a lack of wind protection and i'm a big guy...big guy little bike
little guy big bike
