fully gutted for toseland! That lad made an awesome comeback only to try a bit too hard in the 2nd to last lap and binned it from 4th place.

Interesting watching the SuperSport 600's, Yammy, Honda, Yammy, Honda.... then some where out the back Gixxer, Gixxer, Gixxer. I think there were one or two ZX6RR's in there too but it still surprised me. Is there any reason that the CBR600R and R6's are so prevelant?

From what i've read the Gixxer is cream of the crop this year - so is it just rider skill or are the honda's and r6's the preferred machines for this year?

Hell yes, this year's racing has been awesome, especially the last couple of rounds. A late night flicking between SBK and F1 though, had to have a bit of a sleep in this morning...

The reason the CBR is up there is because the best team (ten kate) has had it for 4 years or so and spent gazoodles on developing it into the best bike there. Untill this year when the r6 came along, that still is in the infancy of development. From all the track orientated reviews i've read of the current 600's the R6 is the daddy. Although a new cbr should be coming out early next year.
