Shakey Byrne has won the BSB championship. He's 129 points ahead now
with 4 races still to run. Woot! It couldn't have happened to a nicer
guy. If Shakey's got a fault it's that he's not arrogant enough. It'll
be very interesting to see what he does next. He definitely wants to go
world racing but there's probably not a place in MotoGP and Monstermob
may not be interested in WSB.

1st race
Byrne Ducati
Reynolds Suzuki
Rutter Ducati
Mason Yamaha
Richards Kawasaki

2nd race
Plater Honda
Reynolds
Byrne
Haslam Ducati
Mason

Points
Byrne 406
Reynolds 277
Rutter 243
Plater 227
Kagayama 214

Yes. Plater has been struggling to adapt his style to the twin and to
find settings on Dunlops for circuits that Edwards never raced on. But
it's finally coming good late in the season. The whole team moved to the
UK (they were based there anyway) but Edwards took some significant
personnel with him to Aprilia.

So how long had it been since a Honda had won a race in BSB? I can't recall
one at all. Seems like Honda wins there are as rare as hen's teeth, almost
as rare as Ducati wins over here...

is this the same honda factory team of last year's wsbk effort? i
randomly read somewhere that the sp-2 that colin edwards won last year
was donated to a british team with a few personnels (since edwards took
his mechanic off to motogp).

Now you're asking. You'd have to go back to the RC45 at least and
probably back to the RC30.
