    To true,techno crap suppresses aggressive riders and limits their real skills.
    Bring back real racing,something not seen in Superbikes since these boys ruled the roost.

    I insist that you guys have all got it wrong, its all about the engineering! To an engineer the most exciting races to watch are where you have done such a good job the bike is way out front.

    And the story goes on dude, K-Tech suspension, harris motorcycle frames

    The BSB was the last of the old school racing scene in the world

    There are some very cleaver men in the race scene over in the UK
    Good point Shaun, now that I actually stop and think about it I couldn't have been more wrong

    Even Kenny Roberts saw the UK as the best tech base to set up his team so there's obviously a huge tech/knowledge base there......that I completely forgot about, lol.

    You see all the WSB spec bikes over there and assume the tech has come from WSB....when as you say, some of it is actually going the other way.

    Yep, improving the high speed rebound valving on your GSXR750 forks would be really useful!

    Thanks Squire, some on here think other wise, but I guess past actions would have fueled that
