Haslam triumph in Kyalami

May 17, 2010 by · Leave a Comment
 

In Race one Fabrizio on the Ducati took an early lead and was having fun and kept us amused with his slides in and out of corners, it was like watching a stunt rider performing high speed stunts.

Although Fabrizio won race one of the Kyalami round, but the real worrier was Haslam on the Suzuki…he was the star of race one and two, battling against the rookies -Rea- and the geezers -Biaggi- he manged to snatch race two from Rea at the last lap, it was a prertty intense fight.

Manufacturers standings : SUZUKI 222,  APRILIA 213, DUCATI 185.

Donuts Day

Saturday is now officially Bikers Donuts Day, every  Saturday  Donuts are served at TriStar in the morning and at Bike World in the evening…Dunkin Donuts, Tea Nescafe at TriStar,  Krispy Kreme and drip coffee at Bike World.

It’s a nice gesture form both dealers to bring bikers together, you get to get together with fellow bikers and chat about bikes of course share experiences, latest adventures, bike modes, etc.

Yesterday i went to both gatherings, and today i noticed that i did not eat anyting other than Donuts yesterday and i only eat plain ones!!!

Oh and don’t miss the South African round of the WSBK today at 1pm.

The 48

I was at the Harley showroom yesterday, and i was surprised to see the new Sportster 48, i posted about the bike back in Jan when it was first launched and i fell in love with it by just looking the photos.

I was hopping i wouldn’t change my mind when i see it in person, as a lot of stuff  doesn’t look as good in real life as they do in pictures….the 48 did not disappoint me the bike looks even better than the photos with its skinny fuel tank, balloon tyres, under the handlebars mounted mirrors, shorty front mudguard, and low height single seat.

Although the bike comes in three classic paint options, they only brought the black… i really like to see the gray and the orange.

I believe Harley did a good job with the 48, and if you’re shopping for a real retro then look no further.

I posted eriler about the rumor of Casey Stoner transition to Honda, it seams the rumor is true and his marriage with Ducati ends at the end of the WSBK 2010…its said that the move is orchestrated by Livio Suppo an ex project manager at Ducati MotoGP.

The question is what will happen to Dani?

Master Max

Yesterdays’ race at Monza was the best race of the season, Max Biggi shined from start to finish in both rounds.

Biggi was unstoppable, sliding into a corner and coming out of the same corner with a wheelie….got me glued to the TV for 36 laps.
Toseland on the R1 was the motivator for Max, he pushed Biggi to the limit but then he couldn’t keep up, in race two Crutchlow’s also gave Biggi a good run but his R1 broke down later on.
The race marked the first ever World Superbike podium for BMW,  Xaus posted his best ever result for the team, with a sixth place in race one, and Troy Corser came third place from 12th on the grid in race two.

It was also a great race for Tom Sykes the Kawasaki man who gave Haga a hard time, and Haga couldn’t overtake him.
