I hate to tell you this man, but that victory was ALL rider. The bikes are almost identical in performance and actually the Triumph is actually lacking but the rider skill just got the win. Those two were taking to the EXTREME edge of the bike's capabilities.....especially at: 0:36 with the tire shake, 0:50 with the loss of traction and save, 1:13 with the extremely late braking, 1:46 with the AMAZING pass

I gotta say it, if Richards got on a faster bike, he would just dominate. I mean, look what he does with the lower HP bike he is on now.

top end wise, it is. It has a LITTLE torque advantage but up high it falls off. Richards was just able to put what he had to AMAZING use. The bike was not better, the rider was.

I have to say I expected some lame video in response to the post w/the r6 video, but this was really good.

actually you're wrong about the top end falling off, have you seen a dyno graph of a 675? it doesnt fall off,its got like 40lb tq from 3500 rpm to redline.

no, he hasn't. He consistently makes blanket statements and talks out of his *** to try and sound like he has an ounce of intelligence about a bike he knows nothing about.

Rider skill...that was a late on the brake pass...looks like a intermediate rider passing a novice rider at a track day.

Nice riding

you'd be missing out, but whatever. makes owning a 675 more special when there aren't 14 lined up in a row at bert's all in the same blue/wht paint scheme.

millions more in R&D and in the race program and the R6 is getting passed by a bike with paltry factory/aftermarket support.
gay
lame
whatever

i'd argue that any hinckley factory based race program is probably spending about as much money as a mid-tier privateer...bloor is notoriously stingy.

did I miss something, what is so funny? In case you missed it...the yamaha didn't win...

what is the quote that ricers like you live by? an inch or a mile...oh yea, I remember it now...

if you don't like the extra 76 cc's, then perhaps you need to complain to BSS about it, not be jealous on the internet

the yamaha's also got an extra cylinder, if you didn't notice.

ducati is gay for making 750cc twins that can't keep up with i-4's...they suck!!!! omg.

(LOL)

also, if you can't make more power with a 600cc I4 than a 675cc triple, you really should consider a different business.
