Is EBR going to run for the 2014 season in any of the WSBK classes ??? Any news ???? It was announced a few months ago that they will race in the 2014...... | ||

Maybe they havn't officially announced yet so they don't get shut down by the winter testing. Also they probably havn't built enough bikes to qualify for the start of the series. | ||
| Classax |
They haven't built any RX bikes for sale as of yet, but Geoff May said they will be testing the new RX superbike at Jerez around January 15th. They've been hush hush on who the second rider is and whether they will run EVO or not as well. | ||

blake young should be begging for this ride, or his career is over | ||

Blake Young has no knowledge of WSB tracks in which EBR needs that in the team | ||

Not true Dana, Blake competed in world superbike in a number of rounds in 2009 for Alstare Suzuki. Granted that isn't a whole lot of experience... | ||
| Bads1 |
I realize that Wes but all the same he doesn't bring a lot to the table in WSB. You'd think they'd bring a rider of track knowledge. Not a rider that been there once or not at all. | ||

Ben Spies hasn't raced in Europe when he won the Title in his rookie season  .... | ||
| Bads1 |
Sure did and has it ever done before?? And on a bike that's hasn't been developed in racing AMA completely before diving into WSB'S pool of sharks?? | ||

Blake Young is not Ben Spies in any way shape or form. | ||

Leon Camier is still available apprently (although he is being courted by the Ioda MotoGP team). EBR could do a LOT worse than Leon. | ||
| Classax |
Both Eslick and Hayden are both without rides and both better riders than either May or Yates. May is a lock, I'd be talking seriously to Eslick about his future on and off the track. We need someone with more pace than May if EBR is looking for wins. | ||

Eslick didn't look good all year till the last couple races. And then he pulled it together. | ||

Eslick didn't look good all year till the last couple races. And then he pulled it together. I'm not an Eslick fan boy but the GSXR simply did not suit his riding style. It took him quite a while to adapt. The reality is the guys is one of 4 in the series who has the pace to run up front. His off track issues have held him back more than any bike set up ever could. | ||

Has anyone heard who Jordan has hired to to ride WSB for them. | ||
| Bads1 |
Nope but a week ago this past Friday the shop closed and everyone is unemployed at the moment. | ||
| 46champ |
Kind of sounds like Jordan is going to sponsor a team and not own a team. |
