I don't know the calculations, or I'd do em myself. And I know they won't be equal, I just think they're a lot closer than most people think.

Apoc's 2005 or 2006 1000rr turned in faster than my 2000 r6.

You may be on to something, but I don't know the formulas to be able to do the math.

Your example, though, suffers because there are a lot more variables involved than simply displacement. The suspension geometry of those two bikes is dramatically different, and suspension setup was probably not comparable.
