Noriyuki Haga is on the verge of being confirmed by Ducati Xerox as the replacement for Troy Bayliss in 2009.

Speculation as to who will replace the soon-to-retire Bayliss has been rife in recent months, but only now has the team reached an agreement with someone.

jeez, you both missed the tone of my voice eh?  Wink

i think nori is an incredible rider.  he deserves a championship and he deserves that bike.  i LOVE watching him ride around 4 inches from ppl, lap after lap.  the whole paddock trusts him to do that.. amazing.

Am I the only one that's less-than-impressed with Nori's signing?

He IS a good rider, he WAS a great rider. 

I will make a $100 AFF donation wager right here, right now with the first person who wants to bet that he will NOT win the championship next year.

i love watching the guy race but i don't think he will either.

i said he deserves it, not that he'll get it.  =)

He's my favorite SBK rider after Bayliss, and I'd love to see him on a Ducati, but my concern is that he's not a long-term investment.  I think Neukirchner has the best chance to win next year.

My thoughts eggsackry.

I know who won the first race, but not the second.

It was a pretty good first race actually.  waytogo
