Silly that a BRAND NEW (granted, evolutionary updates) R6 SUPERSPORT is faster the ALL NEW ZX10 SUPERBIKE! Hmmmmm....not so good....even out of the gate!

SHOCKING the new Duc 1098 is fastest...shocking...NOT!

Plus it looks like that 1098 is easy to adapt to different riders and stules. Fabrizio turned in awesome times today too and Xaus and Biaggi seem to be going well on it!

Does anybody know the difference between Bayliss/Fabrizio's Xerox bikes and Xaus/Biaggi customer bikes?

Are the factory bikes 1200cc prototypes bascially and the customer bikes are aftermarket bikes bored out to 1200cc from the 1098 mill?

Just curious, I've been kinda wondering if there is any real difference this first year of transition to the 1098 platform between the factory and customer teams. I'm sure there has to be, but what exactly those differences are, I have no clue.

And before I forget...GO HAGA! http://smilies.vidahost.com/contrib/navigator/lhdevil.gif
