Ladies and gentlemen drivers please buckle up, we;re bringing you another episode of the eternal car vs bike fight, this time straight from the temple of speed, the German Autobahn.

The adjacent videos bring us an interesting journey from Augsburg to Munich. The 50 km (31 miles) trip is being completed by a juicy duo: a Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10 and a previous-generation Audi RS6.

The clips bring us 15 minutes of sheer speed, which means that their average speed sits at about 215 km/h (133 mph). One would be tempted to believe that the 1,000 cc bike left the 580 hp Audi trailing in its wake, but there’s a little detail we left out - we are talking about an ABT Audi RS6.

The three letters mean that the generously-sized estate is motivated by 700 hp and 800 Nm (590 lb-ft) of torque and, from what we can see in the videos, the bike can’t quite keep up with the car.

We don’t know if the rider is using the full potential of the Ninja, but the result is a good portion of fun anyway, so we’re inviting you to sit back, relax and watch the four clips.
