Calm down, just wait and see. Special K is obviously just getting into his rhythm.

I reckon watch Haga this year.... I've got a good feeling the title will be his, and well deserved and overdue

[kiwifruit]

Go Haga!!!!!

[skidMark]

I suspect ducati will clean up with the allowance of 1200 cc v twins....

did they allow that in 2007? i get the impression it's new for 08...so now ducati can run 1098?

[DEATH_INC.]

Go Haga!!!!!

Yahoooo!!!! Go Nori !!!!

[saul]

[riffer]

Nah. Bayliss is the man this year.

[Sparky Bills]

DUCATI RULE!!!

But I wouldnt mind if Haga won the title. Think he deserves one!

[kiwifruit]

Guys please this is a serious thread

Nitro Nori is the man

[White trash]

There's a looooong list of riders who "deserve" a world title but never won one.

Frankie Chili
Aaron Slight
Simon Crafar
Randy Mamola

The fact is, the guy who deserved the title each year, is the guy that won it.

Thanks for that. Are you called patch because there's only a scrap of brain left, or is it a term of affection for someone less gifted?
