Marquez did

 

Because finishing 2nd to Marquez and beating all the other shorties out there isn't being "competitive"?

 

#31 all the way. Disappointed to read he’ll be on the ‘19 bike, not the ‘20. I thought there were some mods on the ‘20 that would allow the builders to get more ponies out of it. He’s got a good attitude and I think he’ll make good progress throughout the year. For the title though, Johnny Rea!

 

It has a better top end (cylinder head and valvetrain), which should give it a few more ponies. I couldn't find it anywhere, but I guess it's an issue of the bike not being ready? It will be interesting to see trap speeds - and should be an indicator what to expect from the MotoAmerica '20 R1s as well, as that is something they needed to run against the Yosh bikes. Cam barely stood a chance at RAm and COTA because of that.

 

At Road America, the GSXR's would eat the Yamahas ALIVE. It was fun to watch.

 

It makes for bad racing as the Yosh bikes could park it in the corner, kill the drive of the R1 and then just motor away. Obviously Toni knows this and does it on purpose. I remember Josh's sister live streaming the race in 2018 (Josh on the Attack Yamaha) and during the red flag for Scholtz crashing, Josh came in all hot cursing how "I get a drive on Toni and he f**king pulls 6 bike lengths on me by the end of the straight"... he was exasperated.

Damit man,that's expensive.I am poor

 

That happens when you buy 8 boats, fishing gear, an RV, etc etc.

 

over the course of the season, its Johnny Rea, but i am excited to watch Gerloff make progress.

Did I miss the part where world super bike wont be on Bein sports ?

 

Im here working away..

 

Apparently

 

worth it.

 

Mine went thru yesterday at 76.07 US. Probably varies slightly day to day with the exchange rate.

Apparently they don't show any practice with the video pass ? Was just looking at the schedule and it only shows Superpole as live video. Didn't realize that.

 

looks a bit chilly
