All the fancy ECUs, bang-on-the-weight and power limit and trick fork + brake combos are only anything other than a reflection of the size of the wallet if the rider is not as good as another rider.

Like in many fields I think that there is a tendancy for the green-eyed monster, jealousy, to surface - "if I can't afford "X" then it should be banned"

I think it's called Daily Mail Syndrome.............

Absolutely Paul, just ride the fecker like you stole it.
