    nz super bikes is going to end up like the world SBK but unlike in the world sbk's it wont be ducati making the rules it will be suzuki!
    they should only make that rule for new bikes and not old bikes, its kinda like holden stops making V8's and gets the rules changed to say you can only have a V6 or something, whats going to happen to the people that just brought a 2nd hand car and or cant afford to change the the motor to a v6? they either stop racing or race somewhere alse! shit this is nz, our super bike races arint that big, we dont want to have more people that dont race beause they cant afford to change the engine parts because of a new rule that came out 2years after there bike was built!
    that was interestingly ill informed...and probally just a weird conspiricy theory!!

    I forgive you for forgetting about the Probe.

    I'm sure other things have been there more regularly of late.


    Can I bring this to the V6 races? Fun for the whole family.

    Hey guys Like I said eddie and sloan. Genuinely feel for you guys I really do.
    But the proposal of superbike engines being run as stock out of the box was and is a plan intended to GREATLY reduce the price of building and running a competetive SB.
    Apreciate your guys personal point of veiw but surely its got to be better for the sport if teams can afford to build a bike
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    Hmmm, I happened to be in a certain New Plymouth workshop late last year and saw a brand spankin' new CBR1000RR stripped to less than it's undies, with a fuggin' impressive pile of HRC boxes and packets stacked on the benches around it. The boss was battling the phone for a bit and I spent a good few minutes batting off over such an arousing display of HRC sexiness, my apologies if some were a bit sticky. I wonder just how much of that moto-porn would would still be legally fitted under the new rules.....

    The Honda/Suzuki bias is neither here nor there. The only real bias is towards potential racers rather than existing ones which almost beggars belief: if I was running a business I'd certainly be looking after my existing clients before I went looking for new ones.

    I've actually got no problem with the new rules, other than the fact I'll see more impressive bikes at club meetings and in the car park, but I reckon they could have done a lot better with the way they appear to be bringing them in, with no transitional period whatsoever.

    Then there's the fact racers will still avoid Superbikes like the plague when it comes to choosing a race bike because they get half the racing as compared to other classes of bike. Even under the new rules, why would you take a day off work and drive all the way to Taupo (for example) for 1 practice and 2 races when for virtually the same money you could do 2 practices and 4 races on a 600? This is the core issue behind low Superbike numbers and it's just being ignored.
