Who's ride is he gonna take, unless Suzuki is gonna field 4 factory bikes.

He could take Aaron Yates ride, IMO Yates has WAY too big of an ego and attitude!

Suzuki could do very well with Rog.

+1

Mat is signed as is Spies. They wouldn't let Speis go anyway, b/c he has done too well in his rookie year on the superbike.

why the hell don't Kawi give him and Tom a superbike ride....they both are deserving IMO....the 10R is competitive in Superstock, so if the factory can support it, we know it can run up front with the new K5....hate to see ol Porkchop switch teams, but I understand....he's gotta go after his dreams...

On top of that, it's looking like he's not gonna become a consistent threat for the win, and he's not getting any younger. I'm not sure about Roger Lee right now, but at least there's some potential there for the future.

Down with Yates, he needs to pursue a career in UFC.

Maybe Kaw will field a superbike for him.

ccwilli3 · 08-25-2005, 5:26 PM

both yamaha and kawasaki need to stop being bitches and field superbikes. Thats all there is to it.

Tommy and pork chop both deserve to be in the big dance, it's a travesty that they aren't already...

I'm quite certain that Yamaha will be racing AMA Superbike next year. Kawasaki will then HAVE to follow suit, although I'd bet they are already planning on it. My prediction is EBoz running a green superbike next year.
Of course, the AMA needs to fix their idiotic class system as well. Keep the 600SS, allow 650cc in FX, and scrap Superstock - or leave it as a privateer ONLY class.

Spies and Maladin aren't far behind in the attitude department. IMO.

Saturday this year at Mid-Ohio Superbikes they had an autograph session and very few were getting Spies, Mat, and Yates autograph.

Really? Some people I was camping w/ were delighted w/ the Suzuki boys' behavior.

I waited in that line forever and decided that I wasn't going to get anywhere and jetted.

Sure but they don't go trying to beat a guy up for a mistake they made by making a bonehead move.
