Good to see Zemke back in the States racing... and doing it on a Duc! [thumbsup] [Dolph] [popcorn]

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.

Good for Jake......

And I'm going to miss seeing DiSalvo emulating dePuniet every race [roll]
Desmosedici - it's the new Paso (except the bodywork doesn't fit as well)

Mark told me last month when I was at the shop, he was trying to get Jake. I received the email this morning. I'm excited.  [clap]

 [thumbsup] for Mark! Those guys deserve it, but I wonder if Jake will have any growing pains with the Duc.

He is a damn good racer. If the bike is right he will make the most of it. [thumbsup] I've always thought of him as another Nicky Hayden. Always came across polite, friendly, no BS and a hard worker. And he produced decent results. What's not to like? ;) And I can't imagine them not doing a good job on the bike prep.

Looking forward to the season. [popcorn]

More Zemke stuff...

I rode with quite a few of those guys. It is rare to find a group of people that enjoy riding as much as those guys. Any chance they could safely head up to the mountains, they were there with at least 10 guys.

203.93mph = 328 kph.  that's top wsbk speeds.  huh.
Like this is the racing, no?

fastwin

I imagine the Daytona bowl helps with top end speed. Twenty+ years ago Kenny Roberts matched the same speed on his 680cc TZ Yammyhammer hybrid.

Hayes must have had a "tow" ......

He was way faster than his teammate who is a lot smaller than him.
But it was first practice session after all.

And the EBR (Eslick) was almost 12 mph slower

Still pretty "huh" alright ;)

Lars D

May was clocked at 205 ,Fillmore at 203.
The following speeds were lower.
