No, your right tigger, skill doesn't always trump the equipment. It often does as some folks can't get all the preformance potential out of the bike their on, but riders being equal equipment should win out.
Fortunately for my busted ass, safety wired, bubble gum band aid rides, skill does play a part. And for the most part experience, IE seat time, is the key ingredient to that skill. I think upon reflection....My bike needs a boob job! ![]()

Gives a whole new meaning to "My EX(500) had a GREAT rack"

Reminds me of a lady rider who runs at jennings, she has her bike taped up in such a manner to look like a bra or bikini top!

I knew a lady 2 stroke racer who actually had a small set of fake boobs on her tail section...She always said "If you can catch them, you can feel'em!"

I was referring to a track day and experience, NOT MOTOGP in my statement, as thats what the vid originally posted is of. A TRACK DAY. Any newb can go to the track on a 1000 and get beat by an old expereinced and skilled rider on a "bandaided" 600 or sometimes even smaller, b/c he has the skills and knowledge the bigger bike rider lacks. They arent on even playing fields. In the big league, where ALL the riders are at the same or close to skill level, your equipment will take the win. There, feel better now?! |

Listen,I'm not being a "pussy" I'm being smart. You are on the "protected list" and as such untouchable. I have erased at least 5 posts because I don't feel like being punished for standing up to you. You can say whatever you want and call me names to your heart's content but I'm not gonna go there. Thanks anyway. BTW I don't argue with "everyone about everything",if you look back,I didn't even start with you. You're the one that posted,"rubbin is racing" , "if it's too hot for you,get out of the oven" and "get out of the way" in regards to slower riders,passing and track days in response to my post to the OP. I see now that you have changed your tune since people you respect have spoken out against your POV. Whatever. Woman's prerogative,right? |
