Bruce Anstey to race Honda RC213V-S at Isle of Man | Sport Rider


Hmmm, I wonder how it'll do compared to the Fireblade that they have heaps of information on....

 

Unreal, can't wait to see what kind of times he can do

 

They ran a couple weeks ago. He didn't do anything special this year. It was all about Ian Hutchinson and Michael Dunlap. Those 2 pretty much owned the TT.

 

Interesting to see if Dunlop would be faster on it that is...

 

Bruce was banged up from a crash during practice week. But, no data on that bike - and most of the parts for it were made in house by Padgett's....

There's a reason it wasn't given to McPint.


In other news, you guys heard a customer RCV was knocked over while parked during the TT right?

Insurance totaled it....from a parking lot tip over!
ouch

 

Can't find the story unless this is it?

Yup, that's it! Title to the bid was "written off with frame damage"

So here's the question, you could buy 1 new superbike from all of the other manufacturers with that insurance check, do you buy 8 new superbikes and have your own magazine style shootout whenever you please?

Or do you replace the RCV.... which gets totaled from a tipover... (can you imagine how much Honda cringes when Cal Crutchlow leans into a corner if the frames are that fragile?)

 

I'd get the winner of each shootout for each category, except the cruiser one.
