Anyone else talking RACING?! <--- of the motorcycle type

I'm pretty sure Nicky could afford an RC213V-S if Honda doesn't want to provide him with one!

 

Based upon Nicky choosing the Honda, most Honda riders are holding out the last bit of hope that they will actually come out with an upgraded CBR replacement......I smell something funky and it isn't bad sushi.

 

I'm pretty sure he can also remember a similar bike from last season.....

This is what he should be doin if Honda doesn't give him a competitive bike

 

There was a little noise being made about him possibly doing the Superprestigio in Vegas in November......

The first 5 American invitees were announced in September:

Jared Mees
Brad Baker
Kenny Coolbeth Jr.
Jake Johnson
Bryan Smith

It was announced today that Josh Hayes will be riding on a YZ450F.......

 

An article I read said it would be a two year deal with Honda; one to learn the steel brakes and Pirrelli's, and the second year on the CBR replacement - contractually agreed to... So, one year to suffer and learn, and one to break-in/develop a new bike; assuming Honda holds up their end of the contract...

 

It also stated "mutual recissory" clauses....(Gator's linked story)

A quick search of The Google brought forth:

In contract law, rescission has been defined as the unmaking of a contract between parties. Rescission is the unwinding of a transaction. This is done to bring the parties, as far as possible, back to the position in which they were before they entered into a contract (the status quo ante).

Hmmm, trust issues for both sides, or just standard contract verbage.....you decide.

 

An added feature of the 2016 racing season will be a podium for the lawyers.

Recessus maris: In old English law, a going back; reliction or retreat of the sea.

I tried that button in Chrome and now the fucking Dominos dude is telling me I owe him $22.50.

 

Well I hope you can eat pizza and read the article.

 

I copied the English translation for you Duc.

Superbike arrives Hayden agreement with Honda
We have now: Nicky Hayden is on the verge of signing with Honda to move into World Superbikes since 2016. hours is expected the official announcement, but were also defined the final details, so that the final draft of the contract It has already been sent to America, awaiting signature. A great shot for the championship of the production-based series, which ensures the expert American rider, who won the MotoGP title in 2006 and eager to return to fight for the win after the last years in the rear.
In fact "Kentucky Kid" takes the place of Guintoli, passing Yamaha, alongside van der Mark in the Ten Kate team. Waiting Nicky will be a motorcycle, the CBR, certainly not at the top for competitiveness, but in 2017 Honda will track an updated and far more powerful to fight, finally, for the title. Hayden is a return to origins, since in 2002 he won the US Superbike title just with Honda. And now his hope and the Japanese is to revive those glories.

 

Come on Honda! 2008 was it?! The next generation is going to have to be something special from the giant. Some new fangled, RC 1K V4, full electronics and decent suspension and brakes for 18 g's. And Nicky in WSBK would be a perfect opportunity to launch it, get the yanks interested in sport bikes and racing again. I can dream can't I?

Below is from a friend talking about 2016 superbikes. The Honda remarks were funny.

New Gen5 ZX-10R will get Titanium rods and internals to comply with WSBK homologation rules etc and presumably fly-by wire + prerequisite electronics.

2016 BMW S1000RR will get nothing as it is already too damn fast for us mere mortals

2016 CBR1000RR will get an additional 6lbs added to it, lose 4 hp and have all new race inspired graphics with a revised headlight shape.

 

As long as the voice command for scrolling works when my mouth is full of Pizza, good to go.

Sidebarominos is going to open two pizza joints in Italy sometime this year.

 

Well it's official, Nicky Hayden announced at the Motegi press conference that he'll be going to WSBK and will be riding for Honda. So looks like there will not be an American racing in the MotoGP class for 2016.

 

When it comes to racing, official is as changeable as the weather.
