"The only person from WSB who has got close to Valentino is Edwards" And the only salient point about that is that Colin Edwards was USA 250 champion riding a TZ250 Yamaha-so he came up riding a proper GP bike and knows how to set them up. His riding style when he first came to superbikes was pure GP250-all front end grip and cornerspeed, and SMOOTH-you don't take a GP250 by the scruff of it's neck, you finesse it. John |
