Seems Moto Rapido is going to do what Ducati won't, put an 1199 in Superbike

One of my dealer's techs and his brother have been riding 1*98R in the Norwegian and Nordic SBK.

They are both on Panigales this year, so I'm guessing there will be a few of them in National series here and there [Dolph]

Previous years they were supported by Ducati, but I don't know how they do it this year.
252,000 km/seventeen years - loving it

I find it rather entertaining when privateers are beating the factory teams... :-)

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

School me on BSB please. Did Ducati have any bikes on the grid? If they were, how competitive? I just know that Hopper almost won the championship.

Looks like Ducati has been pretty successful in BSB. Their last championship was with Shakey Byrne in '08.

What he said. ;)
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

I like BSB except for the fact that the paddock girls carry umbrellas to shield for rain, not sun... lol
