Howza 'bout a 2019 WSBK Silly Season Thread...

on Yamahas (with no financial support) or Suzuki (with Yosh support and €500K from Suzuki). Oh, and they are supposed to be talking to a "major" sponsor.

We'll see.

 

Ten Kate Suzuki?

 

Who knows, Ten Kate Yoshimura YooHoo Suzuki?

Or Ten Kate Yamaha?

 

Ten Kate Rizla Suzuki!!!

 

That's Assface over at Crecent's sponsor.

 

Ten Kate's yoohoos? This doesn't sound family friendly...

 

And Bradley Ray is testing the gp bike supposedly because Suzuki was so impressed with him at the 8 hour and didn't have a world sbk to put him on. So if ten Kate happens with Suzuki I wouldn't be surprised if he's connected to it.

 

welcome to privateer-life Marco

 

I dona lika the newa Ducati team colors at all. Looks like an e-bike with that paint. Bautista looks like a dwarf next to Chas. Why 2 reservoirs for the clutch fluid?

Most likely it’s for the rear brake with a thumb brake being used?

 

I'm surprised how little material there is on the Ohlins caliper mounts.

 

Bautista moving to WSBK is by far the worst thing that could've happened to Davies.

I haven't been this excited for WorldSBK since Nicky moved over.

 

Yep. If Bautista takes Rea out inT1 a few times someone else may have a shot at winning

 

It looks like the word "Send" is missing from Chaz right shoulder...

 

That some funny

 

I mean......we really should be used to it by now, lol

According to their bio's, Melandri and Bautista are both 5'5....but if you want to get in to the nitty gritty Bowling Bau is actually 3 cm taller than Melandri haha

 

He is so short his boots almost hit his knee pucks

 

Seeing how Ducati is known for nice clean and fancy bikes, I can't believe they let Alvaro wear that for a photo shoot. At least Chad matches..
