Default 2011 American Superbike

B-Boz and Rog Hayden are in Nike shoes this year. Martin graduates to Superbike with M4. Monster is sponsoring Graves & Hayes' R1s. E-Boz WILL race a CW backed Attack Kawi. Hopkins bails (which is sad because I figured he'd run a Ferracci backed Celtic 1198s this season) to BSB. If Pat Clark could field another Superbike the first call would be to Jamie Hacking, but there are a couple of Daytona riders that could use a shot. Larry keeps improving the BMW and I hear that Erik Buell may just make the 50 streetbikes needed to get the 1190 Superbike approved for Geoff May before the start of the season.
Simply, since Mat's retirement and Ben's move to the world stage, AMA AmSBK may be the best season we've had since 2001. If we could figure out a way to get Am Honda back in the series the grid would be complete.

I bought it, listen to it. It's pretty good, not great. I found it to be awesome music to listen to while shoveling.

On to the main topic, too bad Longride isn't around to hash over this iteration of AMA Superbike.
