Australian Superbikes, New bikes perform well

[PrestigeCBR]

The all new YZF-R1 and CBR1000RR have made a great start to the first round of the Australian Superbikes at Eastern Creek.
Being that the R1, Blade and ZX10R were pretty much in stock form they have given the Suzuki camp something to think about for up and coming rounds.

Unfortunately our guys struggled against the very stiff competition in Supersport though Bryan Staring had a very good weekend on the 125. I don't consider sidecars to be even remotely related to bikes but I'm told Lindsay Fagen finished in second for the day which is outstanding.
