The current 2007 model fireblade can accelerate from
0 to 100 mph in 6.16 seconds.
It Will cover 146.168m in this time.
These are data logged figures but only apply at the time of the test. Acceleration times will vary depending on factors such as wind direction, temperature, altitude etc.

Not a hope. The bike doesn't have enough power, the rear tyre does not have a big enough contact area, and even if the bike had both the standard chain would snap. A decently skilled rider on a well-tuned bike with the engine at full operating temperature and the tyres already hot enough for maximum traction may do it in a tiny fraction under 6 seconds. Remember that the Fireblade is not the hooligan of a bike that it seemed when it was first launched all those years ago. For a stupidly quick bike you need a new Kawasaki ZX12R. Holy cow that is a quick machine!

No production motorbike can get anywhere near that time for 0-100mph; the fastest bikes come in at just over 3 seconds for 0-60mph. It's not just a case of acceleration... imagine the size of back tyre you would need to deliver the grip required get to 100 in under 3 seconds!

A Suzuki GSXR-1000 can do do 0-100mph in a tad over 5 seconds. A 'Blade would be a bit slower than that.

its not possible, my 98 tricked up blade if i tried! could hit 100 in 7 seconds or thereabouts. its all very well trying to hit a ton fast, its the stopping that matters. more bikers are killed because of stupidity. novices on incredibly powerful machines do not match the skill of a 50 year old on a cruiser who started out 30 years ago on a norton commando persay.
ive been on a lot of bikes, from a honda cg up to a 1200 ninja they still burn off the road any bum fluffed 17 year old driving a vauxhall nova know it all. my blade burns all others off the road through years of experience and expertise.

Only a top fuel dragster is capable of that time.

no way... my mate has a 140bhp gsxr 1200 bandit, and even that wont do it, so what chance has a dinosaur honda got?
physics; thats accellerating and covering 1700 feet per second.. (3x1760=5250 feet, a mile is 5250 feet) at a flat speed, 180mph is a pathetic 240 feet per... leaving you well dissapointed...
and one day im sure they will produce a 3 second mile, but they will bolt wings and a warhead onto it, and fire it into iraq...
