Frame flex, skinny tyres, wallow etc etc. Makes you realise just how far bikes have come in those years. I guess we take it for granted these days that a bike is going to handle pretty well, they may be faster but they sure sound a heap safer as well. Whoa!

I'd like to see the race stay true to the original formula and be restricted to only "off the show room floor" prody bikes, except fairings and mufflers to keep costs down. I'd hate to fund a set OEM mufflers after a drop or two. Super stock is close, but. I hope they get good free to air coverage including historical footage to reminisce. Wish i could get down for it.
