probley keep up with a 2.0 corsa, and they only have like 40bhp

you have to be careful of bikes, they're too fast to be racing cars in. mate of mine, Ste32 off here has just bought a 125cc race bike, ridiculously fast

I remember back in the day having a race with a rs125, I had my 1.3 nova back then and it was dead even. Until we came to a corner. He attempted a racing line round the right-hander, hit a cat-eye and the bike leapt across the road, lucky to hold it, we both slowed after that

Should've put we stopped and chatted after, then when we both left did a little drag race and he was quicker off the mark, but once moving was even

i had a suzuki rgv 125 (same engine as rs125 afaik)

i remember racing a corsa probably a 1.2 i reckoned and it was so even. theres no way it did 0-60 in 6 secs.

did 100mph flat out and was fun but not quick by any stretch imo.. (mayeb it was still restricted but i always thought it wasnt as 100mph was a gd speed for a standard bike aparently)

I used to have an Aprilia RS 125 too.

But i also used to race one of these.........



Its a Honda RS 125R which is a full blown race bike. A PROPER 125 They're good for 135-140mph at club/british championship level. Mine was faster then a moderatley tuned 400, although i dit have the advantage of being a 5ft 6, 9.5 stone jockey

My mate's old bikes were always quicker than any cars any of us had

Both his RD125s would destroy us all, then he got a KR250TT which was just stupid fast for a 250, then a pair of VFR400s which IMO are the best sounding bikes ever, now he has a CBR600 and absolutely no-one can get near him

His VFR400 (NC24) was faster than another friends 330bhp Escort Cosworth and his NC30 was even quicker.

an rgv125 does the quarter mile in about 16 secs so should have killed a 1.2
