Hmmmm...  Interesting speculation.

even the article mentions how ducati pulled out of WSBK... that was well before any VAG speculation

Thanks guys but this would be in the 11:30 to 12:30 range on Sat only. If no one can then no one can and no worries.

That would be cool. If you have to work I understand.

Sorry Rick, I won't be back on the island until later that night.  If your schedule changes, I'm any time on Sunday.  From the looks of it, I won't be riding until I'm able to replace my front tire on Mon/Tues.

Thanks.  We'll see how things go on Sat.  What's with the front tire? On either bike?

I think I ran over broken glass during my last run through Tant w/ Gene & Jing.  The front tire on the BMW was flat the following morning w/ ~800 miles on it!  I purchased a set of Q2's for $219 while at Thunderbolt...since I was quoted $270 at South Seas for the front OEM Metzler tire!   

I'm sorry I just realized I never told you...I sold my 1198 prior to my trip to the Philippines...otherwise, you would have the cans I promised you.  Which reminds me to update my profile.

Well.......... none of the articles, so far, mention what type of motorcycle he was on.  The picture shown is just a press file pic and most likely is not our man.  Plus, no 748 would hit that speed unless maybe you dropped it out of a plane.  You'd have to have a pretty specially set up bike to get that speed. Not even the Panigale or the new S1000RR will reach that number running stock.

Yeah, I figured maybe he found himself an old 990 MotoGP bike laying around and was out for a test ride...

Most likely either a 1098R, DD16 or the press lying.

The press, or the cops, lying?  Y'thnk?
