To be fair however, it seems as if in jeremy clarksons test, he took a fast road bike, and a fast car... in the second link they took a......"£24,000 Crescent-modified and fettled superbike with a full complement of pit-crew and one of the top riders in the world" and compared it to a stock porsche and lambo.

If you're going to take a fettled etc pit-crewed superbike, then perhaps a formulae 1 car would have been closer?

Please correct me if I'm wrong about the 'crescent modified blah blah..thing' it sounds like a track bike to me, but I know nothing about bikes.
