Moto2 final testing at Jerez 27/28 March

[Rod Richardson]

40 riders line up for the final testing sessions this weekend. I reckon this series is going to be great to watch.

They've got the real motors in this time, yes?

They did get the engines the last test. But the engine is directry from the production line of CBR600 engines. Nothing done to it exept it got a Suter slipper clutch and decals that says MotoGP and a number on what enginge it is. Some bolts is secured also.

So its more prototype engine parts in the production based class WSS600..

Some mechanics say it got 125hp and some say 130hp. This makes that a lot have the problems with to stiff frames that was designed for 150-160hp. Suter is one that many complain about. Suter also did get some complain from the teams as they dont have enaugh spare parts for the clutch they diliver to this engines.

Nice pics, Jackal - some good detail shots. Though I could have welded that thing together, by the looks of it (I am enthusiastic, but not very good) ;)

[The Phantom]

I agree, Eccles! It's pretty agricultural... hmmm. Weld up a trellis frame in the backyard, bung a CBR600 motor in, whack some CBR600RR raceglass on it... phone up Ant, "Come and ride my bike in Moto2!" :D

[Rod Richardson]

True...........a bit rugged but I can understand it seeing they've been experimenting with swing-arm lengths to date. I bet the kids weren't too happy when their playground set was cut up to fabricate it.

Then again they may have hacked up a couple of bike stands similar to the one in the pic.
