I wasn't aware Corser was a key component in the RSV development.


Couldn't agree more. I had high hopes for Haslam this year, he was fun to watch last season.
Troy was well regarded as a dev rider prior to the bmw gig. I don't believe casey is as bad as the myth suggests, remember ducati also has the reputation of not listening to shit
