In Mcgraths book, he said it was a big mistake leaving Honda and the support they give. There contract was too restrictive. No BMX, wakeboarding, snowboarding ect... During the season, they wanted to own him and not let him do the things he wanted to away from the track. They want you 100% healthy.I also know they wanted him on the then new aluminum CR250 and he didn't like the feel the new frame gave. Too stiff. He said he never really understood the support they offered until he was with another team. |

I heard a rumour last week linking Zemke with a WSB ride with PSG-1 Kawasaki next year. His name was mentioned along with Greg Lavilla, Shinya Nakano (is this guy teflon! How does he keep getting top rides?) and Ozzie Superstock sensation Mark Aitchison. I really hope that Zemke gets the gig, as it would be good to see another American in WSB,especially with the series returning to the US next year. |

To me Zemke is just a better FX or even SuperSport rider. He's do much better in those classes. Don't know why but he never tickled me as a SuperBike rider. Like the guy's personality though.... hands down a easy going guy with a hell of a sense of humor. |

My last comment about Zemke a month ago and it was the last post. To back up my thoughts I was right. He's doing what he should be doing in the classes he should be in. http://www.roadracingworld.com/news/article/?artic le=30735 |
