Friday morning rides are very exciting when racing fellow riders, and the laugh we enjoy after the race is unbelievable …the above video was subtitled by one the riders, he did a good job in twisting the story to his advantage, but it describes what happened last Friday in a hilarious way.
Enjoy.
A double for Johnny
As much as race 1 was a bore, race 2 was amusing…Rea on the Honda took the pole in both races and was fast as rocket and steady as a train.
Corser on the BMW led both races for a while but no one could find a way around Rea, it was not a good race for Ducati as Fabrizio fell in race one and Haga had a technical problem that made him quit race 2.
The Aprilia rider Leon Camier was doing well until he took a bad fall in race 2.

A friend of mine got the new BMW S1000RR for a day to test ride it, we went out around 10am Friday and enjoyed the usual Friday morning ride …then we meet up with some friends for coffee, one had a Hayabusa and the other had a GSX-R 1000, of-course the usual debate starts and we end up racing the BMW against the Hayabusa and its little brother the GSX-R1000.
I’ll leave you with a couple of videos… Read more
The Aging Busa

A couple of my friends are hard core Hayabusa fans, they have ridden almost all kind of bikes but they swear by the Hayabusa, the other day we were having coffee at TriStar and they were asking me about my K1300R and if it really performs like a 1300cc machine..they were like: we know it has good breaks and traction -a couple of things the Haybusa lacks- but is it as fast as Busa ?
My answer was: yes it is very powerful but it can’t compete with thr Hayabusa when it comes to top end speed becuase its a naked bike and lacks the wind tunnel aerodynamics the Busa has….we had a long debate then decided to put both machines to the test, so we went to a place were we can test them, we did a couple of test runs then 2 final runs to crown a winner.
