Cheated and recorded it,not a bad start to the season,Supersport was good as well,I have a connection with Sykes so not overly happy with his results,OK butcan do much better,I hear the kawasaki was 15k an hour slower than the Aprilia down the straight :cry:

yes Biaggi's Aprillia did seem to go quite well..  :D  shame about some of the coverage though, especially of the 2nd race where there was obviously a bit of a race going on for 4th, right up to the finish line - would've been good to see that rather than unknown bods looking cheerful in the team garages!  :roll:

they changed the rules for this year, and having to run some standard engine parts, so no geared cams

And it still looked miles an hour quicker than anything else.

Yup, according to Jack Burnicle they've removed the gear cams, had to go back to standard fuel pump and injectors but still found another 5 bhp over last year's bike  :shock:
