I hope when this is all said and done he can live a healthy, normal rest of his life.

That sucks. He hit the ground hard in that high side, and he'd been down 3 times prior. That bike is un-rideable apparently, or at least the way he rides it.

Saw that.

The rest of the kids don't want to spend the cake to make it work so they make a rule.

I have to agree with Jack.

That said, the front ride height device killed Pecco's confidence in the GP 22.

Sounds like the biggest factories getting their way.

True, not every innovation suits everyone. You certainly wouldn't want a device to go haywire as Jack experienced.

I think the GPS linked geo mapping that went crazy on Jack should be banned and more direct throttle control placed in the hands of the rider. I believe this would seperate the riders out more. I guess im a Luddite. ;D  On the other hand one could argue that the technology has levelled the playing field.
I guess the mfrs have gone so far down the semi automated road that a lot of of things would have to change for the rider/technology equation to change.
