You're looking at a couple of bikers who aren't really pushing what their bikes are capable of. Also, find me a real turn in that video. It was basically just a straight highway.

Go watch the video I posted, because you're just plain wrong and it's getting comical.

Um that doesn't mean it can pull more G's through a corner. That 7-second difference could be primarily down to acceleration.

^^Yep.

He doesn't understand what mechanical grip is. 4 fat contact patches versus two small slivers, which achieves higher mechanical grip? It isn't a trick question, am I right?

Again, none of you bothered to watch the video I linked where they compared corner speeds of a McLaren, a BTCC car, and a street bike. And how the street bike blew them both away?

Continue believing in whatever you want to believe in then, because it definitely isn't science.

Mechanical + aero on a race car > a street bike. HOWEVER, no road going car, minus the ACR Viper, Huayra, and a couple of other high end exotics, has any actual aero to write home to about.

Watch the video at least.
