1 Second on a racetrack is eternity let alone 10 seconds or more a lap. In a 30 lap race a second a lap puts you down 30 seconds and that might as well be all day. 125s are about cornering speed and they have very high cornering speed but I believe the 250s are almost as fast or faster. The big bikes are about controlling too much power, accelerating withit and then controlling the tremendous braking. Look how many guys actually make it to MOTOGP and are successful. Can really count it on the fingers of one hand. Troy Bayliss and Troy Corser are both great riders but they did very little in GP racing. It is truly the major leagues of motorcyle racing
