2009 WSBK pre-season smack talk thread..
1 week to go before the start of the WSBK season...Let's get it on
This season should be one of the best ever.... --Bayliss retired, so the field is wide open --Spies is riding a Yami --Max Biaggi and Shinya Nakano will be on Aprilia's --Troy Corser and Ruben Xaus will be on BMW's --Nori Haga and Michel Fabrizio will be on Duc's --Carlos Checa is still riding the Honda at age 36 --New faces Byrne and Sykes will make things interesting So who's your early pick to win it all??? Being a huge Honda guy, I'm not liking it, but Haga on the Duc seems to be a good match...Your thoughts? Last edited by L8 Braker; 02-22-2009 at 12:53 AM.. |

I love watching Haga run, and with the displacement advantage Ducati gets, things look really good for him this year.

Maybe, but it'll still suck below 10K.

Haga deserves a championship and this is probably his best chance. I hope to see Spies do well so he can work his way up to MotoGP

Wtf you forgot max noycuchnier (sp?). He was fifth last year... Second at one point. I like him... But don't know about him winning it all. The yami is rumored to be kick ass... Gonna be a good season for sure!
