That is a very cool track. I tried to watch a season or two of BSB, but whatever channel I found it on didn't really keep up with the season. Quite often they'd show races from previous years or something.
So anyway. Yeah. I love watching them catch air over the mountain. Quite often, not even upright when they do it.Dogma

I've never ridden a Triumph. I was intrigued by the rebirth of the company, especially when I read about the Speed Triple (20 years ago, now?)
But I remember very well the mid '70's, when I started street riding. Rode with a guy who had a Trident. Heard about the problems, saw the bike close up, and decided I was glad I had my Honda CB350.

You got to remember how old I am. For me, the first "superbike" was the CB 750. Then, for 20 years, nothing much below a liter qualified. I'm not talking about racing, track day or anything like that.
I'm aware of MotoGP, Moto2, and the newer "American Superbike" class. I guess the usage has changed from street lingo, Cycle World covers to official racing classes.1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

How you gonna document street terms? We got "Superbike" from racing organizations, not from kids at the drive in…"Only fe' collected the old way, has any value." from His Majesty O'Keefe (1954 film)
