I hope Speed will show i again. I think SuperSport is for the most part more exciting to watch, there is uassually a closer race.

ya, i agree. the most exciting for me is daytona sportbike, world supersport, and moto2. i think it stems from the fact that the bigger bikes get that much more money for electronics, engines, suspension, etc. and with the smaller bikes, its more about who is the most brave.

Hope Stoner has a good week in Portugal, since he got chopped out in Spain. I want Honda to get a 1, 2,3 finish!!! LOL!!!

i gotta believe he will. he was doing just fine in that race before rossi took him out. i think he can ride the wheels off that honda rain or shine no matter the track. i'm cool with dovi and simoncelli doing well... i just still, for whatever reason, can't stand pedrosa.


and it wouldnt hurt my feelings if hayden continues to surprise people and do very well either

wow! world superbike was amazing this weekend. double win for laverty - i've always been a huge fan of his. however i do think in was BS to give that ride through to biaggi. monza was awesome!

Laverty had a good weekend. Was hoping Rea would have got on the podium. Hope he puts some top finishes in Salt Lake City, UT. Go Honda!!!

ya, i mean, it sucks he got taken out in race 2 in that first corner.... but i'm surprised that there was only that one incident in the 3 races. long fast straight with everyone charging for the corner which you have to basically block pass on - on the first lap. pretty amazing how they all got threw there.

and then he didn't get a good start in the first race too. i loved how steve martin kept begging honda to bring out a new model for 2012... and it does show. that 1krr does seem to be lagging
