MotoAmerica has a survey up on their Facebook page asking for input. took 5 min. FB page: https://www.facebook.com/MotoAmerica Survey: http://questionpro.com/t/ADz6tZRxys | ||

took the survey. zero made the list of bikes but not buell/ebr? | ||
| Ducley |
what the hell is verktika? | ||

I took the survey and then thought about the fact that EBR/Buell was not listed. I hope it was an over site and not some body figuring we would think Harley is the same as Buell. I have owned at least 1 Harley since 1972 and I have never thought of my Buell as being the same as owning a Harley. If they believe that they are missing a large section of their potential audience. | ||

I find it interesting that there are not very many teams declaring they will run in superbike this year. By now we normally know the almost the whole grid. Last year teams were declaring without having the schedule. KTM still unknown With Pegram going to WSB Foremost is unknown Ulirch's team may race supersport Yoshi only has 1 rider signed in Hayden The Graves boys are in for the win, but that's really it. It will be amazing if the grid is full of privateers with the new rules making for more competitive racing, I think we will see much fuller grids in Superstock 1000. | ||

Im sure Ulrich will be in there. Yosh will have another rider but yet to be announced. No third rider though. | ||
| Mackja |
Pegram was on Pittpass radio the other night, indicated EBR is working on putting together a team here to run in the series. Nothing nailed down as of yet. | ||

Last year teams were declaring without having the schedule. To what I was told teams were waiting on TV coverage announcements so they could then secure sponsorships. | ||
| Davegess |
Have rules been finalized? | ||
| Smoke |
still waiting on rule book final. there will be 1 1190RX in SS trim on the grid for sure come April. signed for bike yesterday and will be announcing young rider very soon as the rest comes together over the next few weeks. THANK YOU Erik and EBR again! see you at the races! tim | ||
| Classax |
With a decent rider I think the EBR will prove to be hard to beat in the SS1k class. | ||
| Hughlysses |
Woohoo Tim!  | ||

AWESOME news Tim! Thanks for carrying/furthering the torch! 1313 | ||
| Reepicheep |
Great news, we will be rooting for you! Let us know who your sponsors are so we can send them a thank you note. | ||
| Steeleagle |
Great news, Tim! See you at the track! | ||

Cory West posted this on Twitter: "So anyone got a 600 they want me to ride in the Daytona 200?" | ||
| M2typhoon |
Geoff May is also rumored to be seeking a ride. | ||
| Firstbuell |
and Aaron Yates is likely looking to spend just one comfortable night, sleeping...... 2015 looks to be a very tough find-a-ride or keep-a-ride season, in general - & MotoAmerica, in particular in EBR Standard Time [2-4 months behind GMT], the US sponsorship & MotoAmerica personnel & SBK/MA testing decisions will eventually be implemented | ||
| Bads1 |
Actually with Moto America having Television coverage the teams are looking for sponsorship. Many were holding out to hear for that announcement | ||
| Bads1 |
BTW Filmore will be back on the KTM this year. | ||
| Bads1 |
And the rules finally released. http://www.americanmotorcyclist.com/racing/roadrac ing/roadracingrules.aspx | ||
| Bads1 |
BTW...Curt take a look at the fact that the rules say AMA Roadracing Rules. DMG relinquished the rights to MotoAmerica but yes it's still called AMA Pro Racing | ||
| Firstbuell |
yeah, odd..... | ||
| Bads1 |
It was always AMA. It wasn't ever Daytona Motor sports. | ||
| Firstbuell |
so, who's gonna show at The 2015 Daytona 200 ? which riders? teams? who will win? | ||
| Classax |
Its funny but every time I read a Superbike rule book I always come away thinking its easier to just buy a crate engine because EVERYTHING else SEEMS like it can be modified or replaced. LOL Here's to Superstock racing ! | ||
| M2typhoon |
If everything works right, the superstock class should have the most entries and the best racing. I would go to the races just to watch that class alone. | ||
| Classax |
I think the Superstock 1000 class would be some great paint rubbing elbow throwing racing! With that kind of machine parity, even an alien makes one mistake and suddenly he has three or four privateers trying to get buy! Can't wait! | ||
| Firstbuell |
I listened to Tues nite's Pit Pass Radio for a brief interview with Rainey - he acknowledged that SuperBike entries were expected to be few [& apparently are.....], so SuperStock 1k entries will pick up the slack IIRC, the only difference in MA 1000-class numbering is SBK[black] & SSK[blue] on the same color background? - someone, please tell me there're more differences..... |
