So- when do we get to see them race?
A bit of a tease fill-in.
I don't think there is an advantage in cornering for the bike. The AWD aspect of the car plus 4 on the road with more contact will let it easily match the bike in the corners. The AWD will also give it an unfair advantage in the acceleration stakes, since the bike is one-wheel-drive and therefore can't get the same power/second to the ground.

Lets throw another equation into the mix...

which is more fun in corners???
I have always found bike more comfortable in fast corners, not jammed into side of seat or even slip off seat.
is it trying to compare chalk and cheese?

Agree with that Paul, riding is much more fun then 4 wheels.. Can have some fun in 4, but 2 is much better...

Who cares?
I ride my bike because I love the freedom. When riding, I smell the new cut sugar cane and the road kill, I'm in tune with my bike and aware of the road surface, I feel the wind and hear the noise of the engine and the tyres.
In a car I have the radio on to keep me awake.
What's the saying? On a motorbike the journey is the reward, in a car it is the destination.
