There is one more more issue to throw into the equation: skill required for a given level of performance. Having raced single seaters both in the late seventies (yeah guys, that's before some of your parents even met!) and in more recent times, then coming back to bikes (dirt a few years ago and road a couple of months ago) I believe it is much harder to ride a bike to its limits than to hold a car on the limit (that's my excuse for being a nana on my bike and I'm sticking to it!). My business partner who is 15 years my junior is an ex national single seater champion, advanced driving instructor, sometime race school instructor and rides a CR500 in his spare time, fully agrees. There is much more to do at any given time to make a bike perform well.
