I don’t think a cheetah will do 60

Guzzi with thier epically tall first gear and limited rev range meaning you need to jam or gear or two, I say the pussy cat.

I'll go with the kitty also. After all it has four paw drive with traction enhancement.

The Guzzi.
I gotta have faith.

1288 Daytona

I will SWAG the Guzzi, because the cat may take a bit to get up to top speed.

Guess things are a little slow in Oklahoma this summer.

Was Tarzan chasing Cheetah?

Seriously, I've seen cheetahs on NG. those things explode to top speed in a heartbeat. Their survival depends on it.
You snooze you lose, doesn't apply. you snooze you die for them

Not in this case , but if you reverse the order Tarzan would likely resemble Usain Bolt

Why would anyone name a monkey Cheetah ? Oh ...maybe a guy named Tarzan would

Spent a bit of rest time from yard work to checkout YouTube videos of cheetah 0 to 60 times. Actually quite a few out there. One thing I learned is they are a lot like humans, some are really quick and some aren't.

Couldn't find a time for the Guzzi Daytona, but the other V11 Lemans are not so quick either.

What was surprising to me was some of the old two strokes that I thought were real quick really weren't all that quick when compared to common bikes today.

Checkout https://www.zeroto60times.com/ and plug in bikes in the search.

Sheepdog · « **Reply #21 on:** July 28, 2018, 06:22:45 PM »

Cheetahs have been known to reach speeds around 75mph...and take a remarkably short number of steps to reach that speed. However, they can only maintain speed for a short time.

The Daytona, and I, need our summer fling.
A couple things I may not recall clearly:
That high 1st gear gets you past 60 w/out a change up.
Quoting a magazine text from the period. 0-60 in 3.8 sec. Good fortune, R3~

The cheetah has been documented 0 to 47 in under 2 seconds, so not much of a chance the Daytona is going to catch it by 60.
and the cheetah won't need a change up either

YD: Can you graph that for me, please? :) R3~

pete roper · « **Reply #25 on:** July 28, 2018, 07:45:19 PM »

Have you fixed that oil pressure problem yet?

We have genetically enhanced goats in our back yard the can accelerate fro 0-60 in less time than it takes to sink a shot of bourbon and do a line of meth!

It depends. If the Daytona has a Power Commander installed, it will always be faster. Even if it's not, all the brown-nosed lickspittles will say it is. It will make 25% more power without evidence or documented proof. The Cheetah will be called an amateur and wrong, and therefore a liar. It's not even fast, and has other cats to run for it.

Perfect companion accessory for launching the Power Commander to where it belongs:

well the good news is, you don't have to worry about outrunning a cheetah, all you need to do is outrun the guy next to you.
