I was out there last year when the guy was measuring up the bike for race glass. Should have it soon. ;)

yeah Ben was running around on that bike at the PI double header last November with
- stock fairing
- stock rearsets
- stock suspension (couldnt find valves and springs to fit the big bore front)
- custom SS pipe

and was still pulling 1.39s :shock:

Kawy in MotoGP after all?

did anyone hear if the kawy team cancelled their test at phillip island?
the fact they didnt test means they still might be in after all for 2009 - the test would have penalised them with the testing ban from Dec 1 - Jan 20.

this rumour just keeps going....
