There will be eight different manufacures in the British Super-bike class. 8! ATE!!!!! http://londonbikers.com/news/12763/three-new-manufacturers-join-bsb-for-2010
And when my series starts, AMA, I'll have eight different manufacturers dddddd......EIGHT manufacturers, BSB? Yep, eight. So, needless to say, I don't feel the need to strive for anymore. AMA, AMA, good luck with your firings.
How many of those are factory backed teams, and how many are just some dude named Joe on his Joe Bob Performance and Lawn Mower Transmission Service backed team?
If I'm reading that correctly, those three new entries all are running support classes (EVO and Superstock), not Superbike ...
As I understand it, EVO will be the "race within a race" in the superbike race for privateers. So, technically, they will be in the "Superbike race".
BSB offers a new class with dumbed-down bikes, and three new manufacturers step up to the plate. Huh ...
American Superbike is basically Superstock that lets you run aftermarket brakes, gastanks, wheels (but not 16.5) and triple clamps.
