I have had plenty of bikes. From Harley's to Yamaha to a gsxr.... My current bike is a Ducati 748. I rode it once and it was game over. It is an incredible machine.
jajaja que buen video esta con toda la onda brooo escuchar el sonido de esos caños es infernal carnal!!!! es una patada en la cara emocionante!!!!! pura adrenalina! tendrian que subir mas de estos videos!
I saw one orange Lamborghini today in the highway and my heart beat started raising. It is an extremely gorgeous car. The orange color plus the blue xenon lights is amazing. And the sound is just unbelievable truly truly an amazing car
@ronaldinho99999999 So.... What you are saying is that all of the "nowdays" bikes can perform with the zonda...? (omegaiteration signed into a buddies profile atm...)
@thelead I never said I disagreed, but I also stated an equally track focused car will kill a bike on a track. Example: a Pagani Zonda R, KTM crossbow, etc. The point is that bikes are speed specific, they offer nothing but speed, so to be fair take a speed specific car, Porsche 9ff, or maybe Mosler MT900R to race it.
@Dennissays also handling. four wheels rather than two creates a greater force of friction in turns, which means the car can withstand greater amounts of centripetal force. (won't skid out)
Good man, Leon! I have to say though, as good a driver as Tiff Needell may be, an equivilent to Leon Haslam in cars would be a current Grand Prix driver
I think there is more in it than just tyre contact area. A car has hell of a lot of weight to get round the turns so it's extra surface area isn't used as much, plus the suspesion can tip and it's not getting the full benifit possible. A bike has less grip area but less weight to carry, so it's not as bad as some car drivers think. The problem on a bike is getting the power down whilst leaning. Racers can slide and lift the bike so it's upright with more grip.Bikes lean and can straightline more
its all about the feel too, after testing an 1198s, I personally found it to handle absolutely amazing. The suspention felt like i was floating on air but could feel every riple in the road. Light as any middle weight machine but with torque to launch you from the corners like a missile. It was so easy to use the power and i felt like i was sat on the bike relaxing and just needed to look where i wished to go. I used to ride a slow 600 and its a case of throttle to the stop and corner nicely. :)
@ConstrictedTruth Very true my friend. I just know when I had my CBR600F's after my test, a mate had an SV and although far comfier I felt it just didnt have enough go. But I guess its all dependant on how you ride it of course.
@brabra6106 well , if you evenly match the rx7 to the ferrari "rx7" being a 4 rotor 26b pp turbo equivalent to a v12 turbo , who do you think will win then ? i think you under estimate the power of what a rotary engine can produce iv seen a 500hp 1.3 ltr rx3 crack a low 8 1/4 mile people thought the supra was shit untill it smoked a gsxr 1100cc from stand still to 340kph have you seen a 26b pp rotary engine in action ? i think you should have a look
Tiff Needel is a retired BTCC (British Touring Cars) Race Driver. He knows how to drive a car better than most. Thought you would know that, rather than calling him a showman ;o)
The best bit is, I can afford a 1098 but not a Lamborghini!
Guarantee the guy on the bike had more fun too.
Saw this bike get off the freeway next to me, as I was on my shit 500. I fell in love instantly
Enjoyed that..cheers for the upload!
I have had plenty of bikes. From Harley's to Yamaha to a gsxr.... My current bike is a Ducati 748. I rode it once and it was game over. It is an incredible machine.
Have you tried the 848?
You crashed it??
That 1098 butchered the Lambo. Imagine the S or the R.
omg its insane how fast those bikes can go. It gives me the chills to think about a mistake at that speed.
Really good Vid!
I'd love either of those!
Rip top gear. :(
Incredible video, very entertaining.
That looks like it would have been so much fun to race that Lambo. Awesome stuff and nice racing!
Hell yeah can't wait, new season is coming soon. WOOOT
Rock on Leon...his dad was my hero and the highlight of my life was being coached by him at Donnington on a CBR600...what a family.
Great vid,looks like the drivers had fun,and was fun to watch.
Dat was so awesome...jah kno...mi could feel da rush from just watching!
sick car, sick bike - great vid!
Excellent race
post another vid !!!!!!!!!
Awesome video, some of the auto and moto industries coolest. Plus, any car than can keep up with a bike on a track course... wicked.
jajaja que buen video esta con toda la onda brooo escuchar el sonido de esos caños es infernal carnal!!!! es una patada en la cara emocionante!!!!! pura adrenalina! tendrian que subir mas de estos videos!
thanks we all needed to know that asap
Nice Leon,job done!..
I'll take one of each too. Insane video. It's in my favourites.
Powerful video!!
yeah most def. For me, in the end it comes down to which one you can plausibly own. I'm hoping on getting a Duc S4r monster in a couple of months
thats why i love this program tiff knows how to race against bikes making it more fun to watch!
I saw one orange Lamborghini today in the highway and my heart beat started raising. It is an extremely gorgeous car. The orange color plus the blue xenon lights is amazing. And the sound is just unbelievable truly truly an amazing car
wow. i didnt know 5th gear made anything as entertaining as top gear , this segment is awesome!!!!!
Excellent fair comparison. Very Cool, I'd like to see a Murcielago vs a GSXR1000, R1, or CBR1000RR.
This man has the coolest job!!! He gets to test drive and race all the supercars for a living and create reviews. Can their be a funner job?
@nissanboy19 what bike?? there arent many production bikes out there that can touch a 1098 on the track
very great race
Still loving this video!
awesome vid
that was awesome to watch
Awesome bike and great riding skills.
The design on the 1098 is just FANTASTIC!!! Wouldn't mind the Gallardo in my garage either...
Fantastic - and there's an even better Duke out there now!
NOW that was F***IN INTENSE LOL awsome!!!!!!
thats a great vid
dont let the carisma of the host fool you, he tests sports cars for the best builders, and used to race in the WRC hes an excellent race driver
That is so crazy cool... these guys car drive/ride.... WOW
both amazing!!
That was FUN to watch, the Lamborghini driver captivated ones attention.
i really enjoyed that!!!
jus one word amazing
And think of the price too. You get similar and slightly better performance on the Ducati for a fraction of the price. Gotta love that.
Sweet video.....
2 wheels rock ya every time....
which r1 are .you refiring to? because the 2008 r1 has an 180 bhp. the older model has less hp.
lol damn that was insane! i want to see a bugatti vs ducati 1098 R
would like to see sucha race :)
super video!!
the last handshake was awesomeeeee
@ronaldinho99999999 So.... What you are saying is that all of the "nowdays" bikes can perform with the zonda...? (omegaiteration signed into a buddies profile atm...)
what is the difference between the ducati monster 696 and the 1098? is one for beginners and the other is for more experienced bikers?
Nice Video
sweet im getting a ducati this summer!
me too lmao,,,, this is one of the best videos i've seen
He is not just any "T.V presenter" Tiff is an x Le Man 24hr Racer, F1 Racer etc... This guys has a shait load of talent/respect and skill.
totally agree, im more a bike man myself but you cant ignore a ferrari or lambo if it drives past they are works of art
Awesome ride form young Rocket...
@thelead I never said I disagreed, but I also stated an equally track focused car will kill a bike on a track. Example: a Pagani Zonda R, KTM crossbow, etc. The point is that bikes are speed specific, they offer nothing but speed, so to be fair take a speed specific car, Porsche 9ff, or maybe Mosler MT900R to race it.
AMAZING!!
Last game is very good!!
awesome video.....
Man I love both.... Lambo In cars n Ducatti in bikes..
both r awesome
before the slalom he's like "the lambo is wider bla blabla" the dude is like "your gonna lose this one" and Tiff is like "oh right thank you" hahahaha
Have you seen the 430 vs desmocedici?
@Dennissays also handling. four wheels rather than two creates a greater force of friction in turns, which means the car can withstand greater amounts of centripetal force. (won't skid out)
not a fair comparison by any means yet worth the watch
INSANE!!!
anyone know what episode this was in?
this 1098 is one hell of a machine...so awesome to look at one.....
which top gear is this?????????????
Good man, Leon!
I have to say though, as good a driver as Tiff Needell may be, an equivilent to Leon Haslam in cars would be a current Grand Prix driver

Good job with the box pointing out the car, I just about missed it..some people must be blind as a bat!
fantastic
sick vid! even sicker bike!!!
BKES FOR THE WIIIIIIIIN!!!!!!!!!!! 8D XD
The race was amazing!!
its all about the feel too, after testing an 1198s, I personally found it to handle absolutely amazing. The suspention felt like i was floating on air but could feel every riple in the road.

Well its a1098 not a 1198s
Just about to pick one of these up tomorrow so very excited now. The bike I shoud say, cant afford the car sadly.
@ConstrictedTruth Very true my friend. I just know when I had my CBR600F's after my test, a mate had an SV and although far comfier I felt it just didnt have enough go. But I guess its all dependant on how you ride it of course.
what a slap in the face....a high speed wheelie in the final corner...HA!
Gladly i am, proud rider of a ducati 916, 900ss, and 848!
I used to own the 900SSie (1998 model). Now I am considering to buy the 1000 SS or the 848. How is the 848 compared to the 900SS?
Noice
pure awesomeness!!!!!
Bravo!! :D
my god that was some awesome race, got to give it to both vehicles and drivers.... but obviously bikes are sooooo much better!!
Which one wins price wise?
Awesome
@brabra6106 well , if you evenly match the rx7 to the ferrari "rx7" being a 4 rotor 26b pp turbo equivalent to a v12 turbo , who do you think will win then ?
i think you under estimate the power of what a rotary engine can produce iv seen a 500hp 1.3 ltr rx3 crack a low 8 1/4 mile
people thought the supra was shit untill it smoked a gsxr 1100cc from stand still
to 340kph
have you seen a 26b pp rotary engine in action ? i think you should have a look
i love videos like this haha... british people make the best car videos
Now thats a man that knows how to ride motorcycles. Wish i knew how to ride one!
@nacademus what is it then?
Tiff Needel is a retired BTCC (British Touring Cars) Race Driver. He knows how to drive a car better than most. Thought you would know that, rather than calling him a showman ;o)
Great vid !!!
Show bike supremacy over any car !
Now how about showing up a 1300 Hayabusa as tuned as much as the lambo !!???
Take a guess !
Nice Vid. Why do TV shows and magazines shootouts always use the more expensive and slower Italian sportbike?
I love the downshifts of the Lambos. it sounds like a ghostly whistle
"Less weight and more power!" Yesss
Both amazing machine's.
What video had this car, an aston martin, and a f430 speeding through tree lined roads?
