So I'm guessing there was a rule change to get the 1125 in the open class where it belongs, and out of the 600 class? I don't follow NASBIKE, so forgive me if that's old information.

It may be worth finding someone else to do your setup work. If anything the bike should feel more stable as speeds increase. My R6 felt like a missile at 160.

In all sports, it's important to consider the circumstances when you try to evaluate how good an athlete really is. The stats only tell part of the story. Dan Marino doesn't have a superbowl ring,...

I don't like Stoner, but he's miles ahead of Hayden on his worst day. Saying a guy that falls from 1st to 3rd is "moving backward" and a guy that goes from dead-ass-last to a few positions from last...

It's a bit disprespectful to Troy to give "dem-laydeez" his own replica if you ask me. Save the replicas for riders that are top shelf champions, and that have done something significant for the...

I'm thinking about having my first ride since my crash this weekend. It will be slow and short. Probably to the gap to sit for a while, then back home. It would be a nice reward for all of the work I...

Was this taught in the context of racing or street riding? As I said before, I never use the rear brake, so I'm not a good person to ask about what context to apply it. In straight line braking in a...

That depends on whether or not you're associated with local law enforcement.



Yes. I can definitely do that. Fly me out and I'll be there directly.

I don't give advice unless someone asks for it, but I gather a quick assessment of any rider I see, and I often think about what I might say if they asked me about it.

The fastest I've gone on the street was at the gap in the fast section, so maybe 120 or so. I don't remember exactly. On the track, somewhere around 165 at Road A.

Rob is a guy that has a lot of knowledge to give if you know how to receive it. When he offers riding advice we would all do well to pay attention.

Smooth is overrated. Do it Troy Bayliss style - just keep it pointed in the right direction and stay in the throttle!
