I also found out the other day WSB hampers the 4 cyl. bikes by not allowing the bore /stroke ratio too oversquare . this is so the fours cant rev as high allowing the twins ( yes even the Ducatis ) to be competitive . Jake

I've been riding since the early 70s. I think I was the first girl on a bike in my hometown. Racing and sportbikes are new, and I love 'em! I always have liked to go fast, and the track is a whole lot safer environment for it.

I understand that! DOING it is always more exciting than watching someone else!

the jap engines are the most technologically advanced engines in the world ... Even the japs would love to have the buells competitive.

yea the buell 1125 is in that league and slap a RBracing turbo kit on her and only a maxed out hayabusa will go toe to toe with her bro. the 1200s are down in the performance bush leagues with ducati, triumph, etc,etc. BUT they sound coool as fukk an NO OTHER bush league bike can say that. when racing teams fully utilise the 1125 widespread style it'll be cool but i won't watch cuz its boring 2 me American tastes like soccer an cricket its boring, kinda gay and meant for the eurotrash crowd.
