    The ZZR has 40hp Crank. Dont be tricked by factory figures. My one was no more than 25ps at the wheel I tell you!

    Remeber the crank goes through the gearbox, the chain the bearings, and i.e considerable rolling resistance.

    The GSX is heavier, less powered - but they of course can wheelie, havnt seen a bike that hasnt being able to, but telling someone to wheelie a bike when they ask if they can isnt a good thing because they obviously arent aware of howto wheelie (no offence) but I dont want it to be my fault some poor bloke bins becuase of me.

    Yes the ZZR has plenty to wheelie, and stoppie the brakes are fine on it, but when your around 55kg (me) its abit hard to use weight transferr so I solely depend on clutch methods, and it did end bad one day but no major harm done.
