OK, so what was Sport Rider all about

So this guy goes nearly 129mph average on a *stock* GSX-R 1000 (well, I dunno how stock it really is but the basics surely are) and a couple namby u.s. magazines say it's too soft for pro-level riding.  I mean... the invincible David Jeffries wasn't any faster on a completely worked bike.

Makes one go hmmmm...

All that said, congratulations are in order for this rider.  Imagine how hard he rode that bike to go as fast as he did!
