    No, it has not. Xaus is the undisputed GOAT.

    Certainly in terms of carnage. He might have some competition in terms of number of crashes, but no one else was a nearly as good at completely destroying bikes.

    Have to be honest, I’m not feeling wsbk anymore. Something just seems blah about it. I used to like more than 500gp but the last couple of seasons, have been a bit boring.

    Please elaborate; WSBK was very close and competitive all year in terms of results and a title race, no? Moto GP was done and dusted in record time.

    Young turkish rider, showed tons of promise last year, got pissy becasue he wasnt getting what he wanted in terms of contract from Kawi and dipped for Yamaha. some funding by the Turkish government, loves to do stoppies and rides on "the edge"

    I hope he can manage to fall and not smack his head!

    Definitely not the WSBK glory of old but this year should be interesting with Redding there and other guys moving to more competitive machinery.

    If they keep dropping rounds out of the championship, there won't be much to get excited about.

    Razgat was teamed up with Rea and Haslam for last year's Suzuka 8 Hour race. Kawasaki did not send Razgat out for even a single race lap. This makes Razgat mad. Razgat no likey. Razgat tells Kawasaki to get fucked. Razgat makes friends with Yamaha. Razgat goes fast on Yamaha. RAZGAT!

    Team Green always. Top Hat would have been excellent on the factory team

    Just a reminder that team blue is leading the championship right now. Yeah, that might change after this weekend, or not.

    Kawi doesn’t usually do well at PI. Should be Rea’s championship now that they’re back in Europe.

    To be honest not much there for me to elaborate about quite frankly.

    Well aren't you just a ray of sunshine today? :D:Poke:

    I'm excited. Primarily just because we've been deprived of racing for months and I can't wait to see how Garrett does. Last few years I haven't had time to keep up with WSBK. MotoGP and MotoAmerica were enough to fill all the time I had to watch races and then some. But I'm making time for them all this year. Like a junkie fiending for his fix.

    I’m excited, but I’d be more excited if I thought Gerloff was on a top rung bike. From what I’ve read, the 2020 R1 was tweaked a bit to allow for more power in race trim. At least at Phillip Isl his team was running ‘19s.

    The way Bautista did there last year, it will be the Duc’s race to lose.

    BHP41 Calling out B.A.N. everyday

    Who can manage the tire in that heat will take it. Rea has years on his bike vs the others who are on new to them bikes. That will give him a slight edge.

    R1
    Rea
    Redding
    Razgatlioglu
