I've never ridden an 04-05, although I'm sure they're just
lovely bikes
Can somebody remind me which model it was that's won in World Superbike ? ...
Only marginally more seriously (something I prefer to avoid), could someone enlighten me as to the source of the crim / gumby labels ?
Cheers,
Brian

what about the bike (which is closer to stock than a WSBK machine) that got all the lap records in Aus SBK??? with Stauffer aboard
CRIM - originated from Pontikat??? because hang around with one long enough and you'll end up in gaol.
GUMBY- looks like a moulded piece of play-doh. very smooth, but also a bit soft

Touche' ! Although, I think ultimate potential performance is more of a yardstick than out of the box (will everybody who leaves their bike completely stock pleas put their hand up ?) , so from where I sit WSB trumps ASB
Thanks for the info, you learn something every day
