thinkin maybe the folks that discussed it when it was announced JU's team had switched to Hondas a while ago...
What I'm curious now is 2 things 1) is the 2013 CBR600 wildly different from the previous 2008-2012 version. My understanding is they only changed bodywork, wheels and suspension 2) is a DSB level of modification going to make the platform competitive, I remember back when Benito was last on the 600RR in 2011 I think they were saying that the bike was no longer competitive with the limitations of the rules
Benny ran away on the Honda at Laguna in 2011 and won another three or four races on it so how bad can it be?
Benny always liked the way it handled just said it was down on power comparatively. Hopefully they can squeeze a little more out of it
The rumor was it was underpowered in SS, but was also considered the best handling bike. Not sure in DSB trim, but I'm sure it's capable. Tyler Odom rode it in '11 in DSB and hit the top ten I think?
