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."

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.  applause

 waytogo 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. waytogo 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? Wink And I can't imagine them not doing a good job on the bike prep.

Looking forward to the season. popcorn

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.

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 Wink
