I watched the New Jersey round of the MOTO-ST series. One of the 1125Rs broke a shock during the race. Only then did I learn from Brian Drebber that the 1125R has the shock located UNDER the bike! I wonder where they put the exhaust on the race version.

Did anyone else pick up on that?

Someone's confused, I think...

The 1125R shock is not under the bike. The tube frame bikes had both the shock and the exhaust mounted under the engine. That must be where that came from.

Brian's a great guy, a real enthusiast who moved his home to be closer to his favorite rider
[can't remember the name, kid rode for Ferracci on MV + lotsa Susuki seat time recently]

Brian was displaced 2 yrs ago on Speed by Ralph Shaheen, yet he's found work a little further down the food chain, on Speed & elsewhere

he was wrong - we are correct......

Yeah, I know that. Just disappointed at him being so out of date.

I saw that too. Way out of date. Guess that shows just how little attention is paid.
